Hiro exists because the guidance a student actually needs, when to apply, who to ask, what happens after the certificate ends, was never written down anywhere in one place. It lived in advisors' heads, in forum threads, in luck.
I'm Axel Martinez. I lived the OPT and H-1B version of this journey myself, the uncertainty about timelines, the not knowing whether a company had ever sponsored anyone in my position, the advice that was really just a guess dressed up as confidence. Hiro is the tool I wish someone had handed me before I left home.
Building it with Wilmar Tarazona, who builds the product itself.
Not an admissions decision, not a visa approval, not a job offer.
Every program requirement traces back to the school that actually publishes it.
Hiro shows dates, costs, and documents. Your DSO and, where relevant, an attorney are the ones who advise.
Universities, partner schools, or anyone who's lived this journey themselves.
