Zaro

Zaro is a London-based enterprise software company that offers a single workspace combining a company's data context, AI agents and custom-built applications. Files, calls, CRM records, chat threads and specifications are ingested into a versioned, permissioned workspace that agents read from and write back to, so that context persists between runs rather than resetting each session. Workspaces can be scoped company-wide, per team or per use case, each defining a siloed data set.

On top of that context layer, users describe what they need in natural language and the platform generates applications such as dashboards, pipeline trackers, status trackers or automated morning briefings that update as underlying data changes. Agents can be scheduled, triggered or run on demand. The product includes a built-in app store of pre-built projects and workflows for functions including HR, finance and facilities. Governance features scope access to what AI can read, call and change, expose activity, and leave an audit trail for significant actions; the company states that customer data is not used for training and that the service is GDPR compliant.

The platform is model-agnostic and framework-agnostic, using proprietary routing that sends routine tasks to lower-cost models and reserves frontier models for complex work — an approach the company says cuts costs roughly tenfold versus frontier-only deployments — while also failing over between models if one provider goes down.

Founding story

Zaro was founded by Michael Bajwa (CEO) and Qian Zheng (CTO), who previously built AI agent products at Convergence and then worked on Agentforce at Salesforce following Convergence's acquisition. Bajwa was Convergence's first hire and stayed through the acquisition, which he describes as occurring within 11 months, before leaving to build Zaro. The founders' stated motivation was watching agents perform well in isolation but fail collectively because context did not carry over between tools, leading them to rebuild context infrastructure for agent-based work.

Business model

Enterprise software platform sold directly to organisations. On Product Hunt the company describes credit-based pricing where customers pay for consumption rather than per-seat licences, and positions the product as plugging into tools teams already use rather than requiring replacement.

Credit-based, consumption-oriented pricing instead of per-seat subscriptions, as described by the co-founder at launch; free options are listed on the company's Product Hunt profile.

Traction

Eight employees at the time of the June 2026 funding announcement, five of them former Convergence agent builders. The platform is used internally by Zaro for its own operations, including functions such as HR and finance, and has at least one named early beta user. Its Product Hunt listing shows about 1.2K followers and 421 points at launch, with no reviews posted.

Latest developments

Emerged from stealth on 9 June 2026 with $5.1 million in pre-seed funding to fund product development, team growth and platform expansion ahead of a wider rollout to enterprise customers, followed by a public Product Hunt launch in 2026.
