What is the core difference?
Both are AI SOC analysts for triage and investigation. Dropzone leaves response to your SOAR; Prophet runs response itself through scoped Agent Actions, autonomously or with sign-off, and sells an optional 24x7 human review layer.
Which fits a team keeping its SOAR?
Dropzone. It lists integrations with Cortex XSOAR, Splunk SOAR, Tines, Torq and others for response, and publishes a pricing unit you can model.
Which fits a team leaving its SOAR?
Prophet, of these two, because response does not depend on a SOAR. Neither describes translating playbooks; for that, see Mate Security.
