- H Company launches its next-generation European agent suite, including Runner H, Tester H, and Surfer H, and open sources its cutting-edge vision-language model Holo-1 H, laying the foundation for the next generation of autonomous intelligence and artificial superintelligence.
- The three products embody H Company’s vision to create trustworthy, action-oriented AI that can perform tasks beyond traditional chatbots, achieve a 92.2% success rate (the most advanced level of computer application technology), and reduce costs by up to 5.5 times compared to its peers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google).
- The three AI agents cover task execution, web navigation, and quality assurance, enabling faster task completion, GDPR-first data processing, and seamless collaboration within the H platform.
H Company , a leading European AI research and product company that has secured $220 million in funding from Tier 1 investors, today announced the public launch of its Autonomous AI Agent Platform, consisting of three agents specifically designed to perform complex digital tasks without human intervention.
This release includes:
- Runner H™, an orchestration platform for multi-step task completion,
- Surfer H™, a web-native proxy for browser automation,
- Tester H™, the enterprise solution for automated software testing.
The company is also open sourcing its proprietary vision-language model, Holo-1, in partnership with Hugging Face, Nvidia (soon to launch NIM), and AWS (Amazon).
Transforming AI from an “assistant” to an “executor”
H Company’s existing product portfolio supports its goal of providing trusted, action-oriented AI agents to organizations of all sizes. Built on a proprietary multimodal model, H Company’s agents bridge gaps by combining planning and vision capabilities to achieve measurable business outcomes.
“We are witnessing a shift from conversational AI to actionable intelligence,” said Charles Kantor, co-founder and chairman of H Company. “We are entering an era where agents not only provide assistance but also complete entire workflows autonomously, delivering the productivity gains that businesses have been seeking from their AI investments.”
Runner H
Runner H, H Company’s flagship orchestration platform that enables “dynamic intelligence” by enabling users to complete complex, multi-step goals through a single natural language prompt , is now available to the public.
Runner H dynamically coordinates specialized sub-agents and integrates with existing enterprise applications (including MCP, universal interactive proprietary agents, and others), enabling seamless workflows across web browsers, document systems, and business applications while remaining cost-effective at scale.
Surfer H
Surfer H operates as a web-native automation agent, capable of manipulating the browser environment with human-like precision while providing a cost-effective automation solution. Unlike solutions that rely on APIs, Surfer H interacts directly with the web interface and can be deployed on any website without custom integration or compatibility requirements, creating a powerful, versatile and cost-effective web automation system.
Tester H
Tester H solves enterprise software testing challenges by converting natural language test scenarios into executable automated test protocols. The platform supports web and mobile applications, enabling teams to scale quality assurance processes without expanding technical testing resources.
Proven performance indicators
Benchmarking shows that H Company’s agent has better price/performance and the best value proposition compared to existing market solutions:
- Surfer H achieved 92.2% task completion accuracy on the WebVoyager benchmark at a cost of only $0.13 per task, establishing an optimal balance between accuracy and cost.
- Outperforms major technology vendors while reducing operating costs by up to 10x, setting the Pareto frontier for performance per unit cost.
- The Holo-1 visual language model achieves 76.2% UI localization accuracy at an affordable inference cost, leading performance among models with less than 7 billion parameters (the best overall small model).
Open source strategy accelerates market adoption
H Company releases Holo-1 under the Apache 2.0 license, enabling developers and enterprises to build production-ready custom automation solutions using visual AI capabilities. The model provides commercial-grade accuracy for UI understanding and interaction.
The open source initiative includes the WebClick dataset, which contains 1,639 real-world UI interaction scenarios and aims to promote the development of visual AI applications across industries.
Market Availability and Enterprise Applications
Runner H is now available to the public in phases, while Tester H is targeted at enterprise customers who need automated software testing capabilities. The platform’s browser-based agent Surfer H ensures compatibility with existing enterprise privacy requirements, addressing key issues for large-scale organizational deployment.
