What they do

Problem

Financial services and similar businesses waste time and incur errors handling document-heavy workflows like email intake, attachment analysis, and data entry across systems.

Solution

Heron provides AI/LLM-powered automation software that processes emails and documents, extracts and analyzes information, and triggers actions such as updating CRMs or requesting additional details.

Who it's for

Businesses in small business finance and commercial insurance, from SMBs to FDIC-insured banks, that manage high volumes of documents and email-based processes.
