OpenAI has acquired personal finance startup Hiro Finance in what appears to be an acquihire, bringing its team and expertise into the company. While financial details weren’t disclosed, Hiro will shut down operations soon, with user data scheduled for deletion—signaling a full transition rather than a product continuation.

Founded in 2023, Hiro developed an AI-powered financial planning tool that allowed users to model different financial scenarios based on income, expenses, and debt. The platform stood out for its focus on accuracy in financial calculations—an area where AI has historically struggled but has recently improved significantly.

The move suggests OpenAI is doubling down on financial use cases for AI. With tools like ChatGPT already being used by business and finance teams, acquiring specialized talent from Hiro could help strengthen its capabilities in personal and enterprise financial decision-making.
