HeroX operates a crowdsourcing platform that enables people worldwide to create challenges or submit solutions to posted problems. By connecting problem owners with solvers from a global community, it seeks to produce broader, more diverse solutions than a single organization could generate. The platform sits in the technology, information and media sector and functions as an open marketplace for crowdsourced ideas and innovations. The company is based in the United States and maintains a relatively small to mid-sized team. In March 2026, HeroX announced Crack the Case, a collaboration with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation to detect hidden threats in dam infrastructure. The company has also facilitated competitions for other organizations, including Emerson and NIH, illustrating its role as a conduit for external problem solving.
