Heroku was not a player in the 'edge' market. I just googled to confirm. They actually had a "Heroku Edge" CDN that they added in 2020 for the first time[0], which to me is their entry into Edge style hosting.

I think it's fair to call Heroku (and 12factor apps) a pre-cursor to edge computing, but certainly not an early player.
