Zaro is where you can build working software from your scattered work. Everything you know is spread across Gmail, Slack, notes, and tabs that don't talk - Zaro pulls it into one place and lets you build apps from it in minutes: your research, your side projects, your plans, your decisions. Then they keep themselves updated, checking your connections every day so you don't have to. No code. No maintenance. No graveyard of prototypes you started and never finished.

Hey Product Hunt,
Michael here, co-founder of Zaro.
Zaro is an AI operations layer that handles the repetitive operational work your team keeps getting stuck on, so people can focus on the things that actually need a human.
A bit of backstory on how we got here. I was previously part of the Convergence team through its acquisition into Salesforce in 11 months, and then left to build Zaro. What pushed me out was seeing up close that context infrastructure needed to be rebuilt from the ground up for the agentic era. The tools we have weren't designed for a world where agents do real work. Zaro is the first platform where you can build apps and agents on top of a modern context infrastructure.
We built it because we kept watching teams drown in busywork nobody wanted to do. The endless context-switching, the manual handoffs between tools, the work that fills your day but never moves anything forward. Most software just adds another tab to manage. We wanted to remove work, not add it.
What makes Zaro different comes down to three things. It runs on credits, so you only pay for what you use, with no bloated per-seat pricing and no paying for capacity you never touch. It plugs into the tools you already work in, so there's no rip-and-replace and no months-long onboarding. And it gets sharper the more you use it, learning how your team actually operates instead of forcing you into someone else's workflow.
A few of the things you can do with Zaro:
- Build apps and agents on a modern context infrastructure, no glue code or duct tape required. Can be done in just one prompt. Connect the tools you already use and let Zaro work across them
- Automate recurring operational work like lead generation, follow-ups, and handoffs
- Generate and cover all your reporting needs without the manual pull-together
- Pay only for what you use with credit-based pricing instead of per-seat plans
- Watch it improve over time as it learns how your team actually operates
We built it for lean teams and operators who feel the busywork tax most, founders, ops leads, and small teams running on too many tools with not enough hands. If you've ever thought there has to be a better way to handle this, that's who we made it for. Day one you can use it to automate your lead generation process, cover all your reporting needs, or automatically order cakes for the office when somebody has a birthday.
We've been heads down on this for a while and getting it into your hands today feels great. You can try it here: https://zaro.ai
I'll be around all day. Tell us what's working, what's missing, and what you'd want us to build next.
Thanks for checking us out!

Yannis here, also on the team.
Adding a bit to what Michael said. The thing that got me excited about Zaro wasn't any single feature, it was watching what happened after teams started using it for a couple of weeks. The work it takes over isn't the flashy stuff, it's the quiet drag that nobody puts on a roadmap but everybody feels. The follow-up that slips, the report that takes an afternoon to pull together, the handoff between two tools that someone has to babysit.
We spent a lot of time making sure it actually fits how people already work rather than asking them to change everything. That sounds obvious but it's the part most tools get wrong.
If you're trying it today, the best thing you can do is point it at the most annoying recurring task on your plate and see what it does with it. That's where it clicks.
Happy to answer anything about how it works under the hood, the context infrastructure side, or where we're taking it next. I'll be in the comments all day alongside Michael.
@zaro_ai congrats on the launch! Quick question from someone juggling too many tools: what’s the simplest, highest-impact Zaro automation you’d recommend a solo founder or 2‑person team set up in the first hour to feel immediate relief?

@swati_paliwal Hey! Thanks so much for the comment! I just had a quick look at your business (awesome btw!) - I'd build a app to manage all of your customers branding and marketing which you could share with them. You could then build an agent that is constantly monitoring the performance of engagement which would update the app for you :)
@zaro_ai Credits-based pay-for-what-you-use is the honest model, but it also means the better it gets the more it costs, the opposite of a flat seat. For a team deciding to adopt, how do you make spend predictable enough that ops can sign off? Any way to cap or forecast credit burn before a workflow runs?

Huge congrats on the launch 🎉 Curious what made you build this instead of relying on existing automation tools?

@suryansh_tiwari2 Thanks so much!
Honestly, existing automation tools were where we started, and they're great until you hit the wall. They're built for fixed if-this-then-that workflows. The moment something needs judgment, context, or a step that wasn't mapped out in advance, they break or hand it back to a human.
What we kept running into was that real operational work isn't a clean flowchart. It needs to understand context, adapt, and actually carry a task end to end. That's a different foundation, not a smarter trigger on top of the old model. So we rebuilt the context infrastructure underneath rather than bolting agents onto tools that were never designed for them.
Short version: automation tools connect steps, Zaro understands the work. That gap is the whole reason we built it.
Happy to go deeper on any of this if you're curious.

@suryansh_tiwari2 Hey thanks Suryansh!
We determined through working on agents for a while that calling data for existing databases were inefficient and inaccurate. We had to rebuild a database (context layer) to make it really easy for agents to work with. It allows us to do very interesting things such as build end to end apps and tie multiple agents into the application you've just created.
You'll notice that accuracy is substantially higher on the platform compared to others. Let us know what you end up building!

JY mentioned agents running inside the apps. The part I got obsessed with is how that feels to actually use.
Most "agentic" tools are a chat box. You type, the work disappears somewhere you can't see, and you sit there hoping. We went the other way.
In Zaro the work shows up as something you can open - a workflow with real steps, or an app you can click into and edit. You change something and it re-runs. You're never stuck waiting on a black box to tell you what it did.
What still gets me, even though I helped build it, is that the gap between building software and using it basically disappears. You don't go hunting for the right tool and learn its buttons. You say what you want, the screen to do it appears, and if it's wrong you say what to fix. An internal tool used to mean a ticket and a sprint. Now it's a sentence.
The other thing: it all sits on one shared memory, so the apps don't go stale. Feed in a new kind of data and the app reshapes itself around it, without anyone redeploying. First time I watched one rebuild itself, I honestly didn't know how to feel about it.
Really proud of this one. Would love to hear how it lands for you, the bits that feel like magic and the bits that feel off. That kind of feedback is gold for us right now.

Exciting to ship a tool that actually feels useful, not just another AI toy. You can build apps around workflow automations and have agents run inside them, with the right people able to access and use them too. That is much closer to how everyone wants AI to work day to day.
Zaro
Really good to finally get this out. Finally a product that can actually build a working app, not a static prototype that leaves the real work to you. You describe what you want, the workflow automations and agents run inside it, and the right people on your team can use it.
Zaro
So excited to see it launch! The most thrilling part for me is seeing how all these new applications emerge once users actually start interacting with the platform. That's exactly what I've seen with Zaro—once people bring in their own backgrounds, workflows, and ideas, they start discovering use cases that we couldn't have fully anticipated.
Zaro
We built Zaro, with Zaro. Everything we needed for launch: the dashboard and tracker apps, the agents updating them, and all our external docs/tools feeding into the context layer, all in Zaro.
Excited to see the first things that you all build!
