Heron Data

“Heron saves a ton of time for our adjusters. These are highly analytical people, you want them using their brain for adjudication, not thinking about manually copying information.”

“That's what we like about Heron — they deliver a superior product. Faster, smarter, genuinely outstanding, and they blow their competition out the water.”

“With Heron, we went from 30% default ratio to 10.7%. That's ~$6 million per year saved in defaults for us.”

“If we got a straight-through application... we could get a quote out the door in five minutes. Before, it was 24 hours.”

“With our growth, we would not have been able to handle the volume without Heron. I can triple my volume and not worry.”

“By using Heron, I was able to eliminate our data processing function, which was 3 humans making $60-75K per year, that capped out at a total max output of 100 applications processed per day”

“Being able to automate bank statement scrubbing and structuring data allowed us to eliminate agents to about half of our total, and also to repurpose some agents in more verification roles, as opposed to doing this heavy manual lifting.”

“The OCR piece is obviously valuable, but everybody does that. What made us choose Heron was its ability to plug directly into our intake workflow, automate submission processing, and integrate deeply with our underwriting system.”

“We used to be online at 10 p.m. and work until 1 a.m. just entering applications. With Heron, we're finally out from behind the keyboard — we're meeting partners, traveling, growing the business. That just wasn't possible before.”

“We're more consolidated and organised in the underwriting space now. And candidly — we're funding more deals.”

“Two weeks after turning on Heron, our 25-person offshore data entry team went to zero. We moved 7 of our 10 in-house folks into underwriting or pre-underwriting roles. That kind of time savings is invaluable.”

“Heron allowed us to completely automate a process that used to consume 100 person-hours a week. Now, it's not a concern anymore.”

“Rather than uploading decisions all day, my team can now focus on making sure the right applications get to the right lenders — and that we're getting approvals back faster for our customers.”

“Heron has eliminated the data entry phase of our underwriting process. We now have a clear picture of revenue, positions, and the legitimacy of the file within minutes of the submission email.”

““The support’s great. Heron onboarded us well — and even connected us with other partners to help us become more efficient.””

““We were getting a lot of complaints from our ISO partners about slow response times. Heron helped us move faster — and fund more.””

“It's very easy for someone who has never seen a statement in their life to start working with Heron.”

“The integration was very, very easy. I really don't remember any type of pains during the integration — and all the features we've been requesting since day one have been implemented with no trouble.”

“Today we have declined under 20 to 30 minutes. And probably 40% of our submissions take one minute.”

“We are processing at least three or four times more. And we haven't grown the team.”

“It seems like they are working next office to us. I mean, we could just ring the bell and someone will come out and help us out.”

“We were very limited to add new brokers or to increase our marketing budget because we knew we couldn't handle more submissions per month. In order to grow, we had to add staff. We couldn't scale.”

“"There is [an] accuracy component, right? Where it’s a person who’s looking at it, and they’re looking at 20 of these a day. Maybe they forget to check a thing where it was the age of the building was different or they missed that the electrical type was different, whereas this is just comparing it one-to-one."”

““This lets us go from potentially hiring two or three people to do this full -time to having it entirely automated””

““We knew exactly what we wanted. Heron wasn’t just better — it was purpose-built for what we needed.””
