Hiro
Analytics and client reporting for email and SMS retention agencies.
What it is
Hiro (originally called Hero Analytics) pulls each client's email, SMS, subscription and Shopify data into one place so retention agencies can track goals and report to clients in minutes. It sells to the agency rather than the brand, with pricing that scales with client count.
How it was built with AI
Co-founder Zach told Starter Story that Hiro launched in October 2024 on Retool and their own database setup, and that over the previous six to eight months they had moved the product over so that it is now all built with Claude Code.
