Frequently Asked Questions

What is the story behind the platform?

For the past 20 years, we’ve worked with incredibly talented artists, animators, and creators to help studios bring their visions to life. In 2016, we launched CGHERO, an outsourcing platform designed to tackle tight deadlines, challenging budgets, and high-quality expectations - delivering projects at scale for studios worldwide.

But we didn’t stop at just connecting talent. As our network of artists, animators, and riggers grew, we saw firsthand the challenges of managing, collaborating, and scaling creative teams. So, we built a suite of powerful tools to streamline production, simplify communication, and optimize workflows.

We could have kept these tools to ourselves, continuing to deliver incredible projects. But we knew we had built something bigger - a game-changing solution for studios everywhere. And that’s how HERO Inc was born - a platform that gives every studio access to the same talent, tools, and production power we built for ourselves.

Now, we’re putting that power in your hands - helping studios like yours scale smarter, collaborate seamlessly, and deliver without compromise. 🚀

Can I use the platform for my own team?

The platform isn’t just for outsourcing - it’s built to help you organize, manage, and scale your own team seamlessly. With our Unified Talent CRM, you can:

  • Bring your entire team into one platform - whether they’re full-time staff, contractors, or external freelancers.
  • Build and maintain a structured contact book, keeping all your key team members and trusted freelancers in one easy-to-manage system.
  • Track availability in real time, so you always know who’s free to take on new tasks or projects.
  • Assign talent to projects effortlessly, ensuring the right people are always working on the right tasks.
  • Manage payments, contracts, and invoices in one place, simplifying your financial processes and keeping your team happy.

The platform gives you full visibility and control over your workforce, helping you scale production while keeping teams aligned and productive - all within a single, powerful ecosystem.
