Runs on your own computer · Mac and Windows
AI on the data you can't put in the cloud.
Helix runs on your own computer. It keeps sensitive details local, waits for your approval at the boundary, and keeps a record of what left and who approved it. No AI team needed.

Why we built Helix
A CEO we met was putting three years of company data into ChatGPT.
She could take that risk. Her analyst couldn’t.
So in most companies, AI speed follows seniority.
Local AI already exists. Helix makes it usable for a business.
The question every AI project dies on
What left the machine,
and who approved it?
Helix answers it on every item, from day one, without a governance team.
Every claim names its source
Each line Helix shows you points to the file and line it came from. Click it, check it.
Approval at the boundary
Helix drafts and prepares. Nothing it drafts leaves your computer until you say so.
A record you can verify
Reads, AI calls, outbound calls and actions, in hash-chained logs. Open the Transparency view and verify the chain yourself.
Out of the box, the only calls that leave are an update check and a licence check. Online AI is optional, with your own key, and sensitive details stay on the local model either way.
It operates for you
Autonomous inside.
Approval at the boundary.
You don't prompt Helix. It works through the day and after hours, picks up new files as they arrive, finishes what it can, and waits for you only where a person should decide.
- Readsthe mail, files and chat you switched on, on your computer
- Decideswhat is stalled, what is at risk, what needs an answer
- Doesdrafts the follow-up, tracks the order from its paperwork
- Waits for younothing it drafts goes out without your OK
- Recordsevery step in a log you can verify, with how to undo it
Who it's for
One condition, not a size.
Your data can't go to a cloud AI, and you have no AI team to work around it. Regulated work and owner-run firms come first.
Owner-run businesses
Companies of ₹10-500 crore, where the owner decides the data risk.
Start with your inbox: what needs a reply
Law and CA practices
Client files and mail that should not be uploaded anywhere.
Start with finding anything in one client folder
Clinics
Letters, reports and mail that must stay in-house.
Start with the report you keep searching for
Manufacturers
Quotes, orders and supplier mail across many projects.
Start with the reminder: who went quiet
Consultants
One person, many clients, a lot to keep track of.
Start with where every client project stands
Not the right fit yet if you already have an AI team, or need one copy shared across a team.
Your data, under your control
Local by default.
Controlled outbound access.
Helix brings the AI to your computer instead of sending your data to the AI. You decide what it reads. Anything it drafts passes you before it leaves; out of the box, only the update and licence checks go out on their own.
Out of the box, only an update check and a licence check leave your computer.
Helix drafts and prepares. Nothing it drafts goes out without your OK.
Reads, AI calls and outbound calls go into logs you can verify.
Want a bigger model? Add your own key for an online AI. Amounts, account numbers, counterparties and project names still stay on the local model.
What you get
Work done, with the source.
This is the real app on a demo company. Pick a tab, or let it play.
Helix reads and prepares. You do every send.
It drafts and proposes. You approve each one with a click.
It runs on its own inside limits you set, and still stops at the gates you keep.
You pick the level in one menu, and change it any time. How Helix handles your data →
Why you can trust the design
Our interests match yours.
Many AI products earn more the more of your data they process. Helix sells no AI usage: it runs a local model for free, or your own key with no markup. We do well when you get more done with less.
It keeps getting better
The next AI, without the next project.
AI changes every week. You shouldn't have to. Helix takes in what is new, puts the safeguards around it, and hands it to you ready to use.
Your repeated work becomes a workflow
Today Helix drafts follow-ups and tracks orders from their paperwork, with your gate on every step that matters. Next, it will notice the work you repeat and propose the workflow itself, so the work you hand an intern today runs as an agent.
New AI, inside Helix within seven days
When a new model or tool is released, we put it behind the same gates and ship it to you within seven days. You get what is new without taking on the technical side yourself.
The safe card stays on
Every new capability passes the same consent, boundary and log. Nothing new gets a shortcut around your approval.
