Hera is an AI motion designer that turns 5-hour projects into 5-minute tasks. When you're a YouTuber making an infographic animation, instead of spending hours manually clicking buttons in Adobe After Effects, you can create the same animation in minutes in Hera. Through talking to our users, we realized that 95% of time spent on motion graphics is manual button clicking, not creative work. This insight led us to focus on automating the tedious parts while giving the user all creative control. We launched in May 2025, got 100k waitlist signups in 8 weeks, and we're doubling revenue monthly.

If you're behind Hera: acceptance into a YC batch is one of the few weeks a young company gets looked up by people who matter — investors, other founders, press. FoxPlug turns the commits, deploys, and releases you're already making into that story automatically, so anyone who looks finds something current. GetFoxChat puts a guide on your own site so the people YC's own page just sent you don't read one line and leave.
