Industry Prediction

Does the business do what it says?

Heron reads the actual bank transactions and tells you what the business actually does. Then checks it against your restricted list.

Trusted by 200+ funders, brokers, and fintechs.

Powering underwriting for MCA, revenue-based financing, term loans, lines of credit, and SBA deals.

Don’t determine the industry based solely on what was typed.

The industry field is self-reported, and nobody verifies it. A restricted industry slips through priced as clean, or a good deal gets declined on a wrong label.

Heron is quite easily number one in importance for our tech stack… Realistically, you are not going to be able to put together an educated view of someone’s account if you’re only doing open banking-based underwriting.

Capabilities

Before Heron, this is where the hours go

A sub lands. Someone opens it, keys the statements, retypes the application. By the time an underwriter sees the deal, the morning is gone.

Manual data entry

Hours a day typing information from PDFs and scanned documents into your systems.

Rework and compliance risk

Human mistakes in data extraction create compliance exposure and costly rework downstream.

Legacy OCR tools can’t compete

Handwriting, poor scans, stacked PDFs. The edge cases that defeat legacy tools are Heron’s daily intake.

The money says what the business really is

Heron assigns the NAICS code off the scrubbed statement, then checks it against your own restricted list. No application form required.

01

One bank statement

No ISO application needed. Heron can read the industry off the statement and the merchant name alone.

02

A NAICS code, not a label

Every result carries the code, a confidence score, and the reasoning behind it.

03

Decline before you pay

Decline dead files up front rather than paying to process a deal you were never going to fund.

Deals are won and lost in minutes.
Don’t waste another one.
