Atlantic Expands AI and Analytics Capabilities with Interloop Buy

New York-based MSP Atlantic has acquired Interloop, a Microsoft partner specializing in data analytics, automation and AI. As part of the deal announced Tuesday, Interloop will operate as an inependent offshoot of Atlantic, focusing on transforming client data into strategic assets.

The acquisition enables Atlantic (full name: "Atlantic, Tomorrow's Office") to offer enhanced services, including building what it called "scalable data foundations for automation and AI," using Microsoft Fabric for advanced analytics, and assisting clients in upgrading from legacy systems to modern platforms.

The acquisition of AI-focused Interloop by Atlantic, already an AI-forward MSP, is purpose-built to feed a growing demand among enterprises for integrated solutions that combine managed services with advanced analytics and AI capabilities. A recent IDC report, commissioned by Microsoft, found that 91 percent of organizations are using AI and anticipate more than a 24 percent improvement in customer experience, business resilience, sustainability and operational efficiency due to AI.
