Vision

Your Business, Unconstrained

True Digital Independence

Our goal is to equip small and medium-sized businesses with absolute ownership of their digital operations. We are building a world where you move faster, adapt immediately to market changes, and are never held hostage by a vendor's roadmap or escalating subscription tiers.

The End of Compromise

You should never have to alter your successful business processes to accommodate rigid software. The future belongs to businesses running on systems designed exactly for how they actually work.

The End of Lock-In

You have complete access to the code and the data. Bring your own tools and integrations. Leave when you want.

Local Support

We've built an industrial-grade, standardized foundation with ready-to-use workflows. You or your local IT partner can adapt it for your business. Software should be a tool that everyone can work with - not just Silicon Valley.

A headless ERP for devs and agents

HeroBM is designed to be easily extensible. Hook into our events, swap out components, and leverage your existing knowledge to build the ERP you need.

And for agents, access to the source code is the ultimate version of headless operation - your agents will understand your system perfectly.

Multiple extension points

Extend the platform at any layer: code; database; APIs; message queues; or webhooks. There's an SDK to help.

Standard patterns

No obscure proprietary languages. We use widely-adopted open source standards like PostgreSQL and Next.js.

AI-friendly architecture

Self-documenting APIs, strict TypeScript definitions, OpenAPI/Swagger specs, and an MCP server enable agents to move fast.

import { ordersControllerFindAll } from '@herobm/sdk';

// 🚀 Fully typed, zero-boilerplate fetch calls!
const { data: orders } = await ordersControllerFindAll();

// Full IntelliSense: your IDE knows 'stateCode' exists
console.log(`Loaded ${orders.length} orders!`);
console.log(`Latest order status: ${orders[0].stateCode}`);

// Connect HeroBM directly to your AI Agents
export const checkOrderStatusTool = {
  description: 'AI Tool: Look up order status for the user',
  parameters: { orderNumber: 'string' },
  
  execute: async ({ orderNumber }) => {
    const { data } = await herobm.api.ordersControllerFindAll({ 
      orderNumber 
    });
    
    // The AI updates the user
    return { 
      status: data[0].stateCode, 
      notes: data[0].notes 
    };
  }
};

// 1. Initialise
const app = new HeroBM({ 
  apiKey: process.env.HEROBM_API_KEY,
  webhookSecret: process.env.HEROBM_WEBHOOK_SECRET 
});

// 2. Hook into standard extension points
app.events.on('sales_order.created', async (event) => {
  console.log(`Order created: ${event.entityId}`);
  console.log(`Order Number: ${event.payload.orderNumber}`);
});

// 3. Mount the automated webhook receiver middleware
const server = express();
server.use('/webhook', express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }), app.webhooks.expressMiddleware());
server.listen(3000, () => console.log('HeroBM Webhook Receiver started!'));
