Security & Architecture

ZERO INTEGRATION NEEDED

Every integration you add is risk you must manage.

Most AI vendors sell system-to-system integration first. Helm is different by design: it automates human-to-human work with zero integration — so the security exposure and risk that come with connectors simply don't exist. You get the same outcome — in fact better, with agentic AI — without replacing a single member of your staff.

A / Integration-first AI

Security and risk built into the model.

  1. 01

    Deep system credentials

    Integration-first AI needs privileged access to your ERP, CRM and core systems.

  2. 02

    Deployment takes months

    From kickoff to the first real automated task, integration rollouts run on months — not days.

  3. 03

    Long, fragile rollouts

    One broken connector can stall the entire automation programme.

  4. 04

    Replacing staff — causing layoffs

    Integration-first AI automates people out of the process, so your team sees it as a threat, not a tool.

  5. 05

    Security risk. Data risk.

    Credentials, pipelines and copies of your operational data — every layer adds exposure.

B / Helm · Zero integration · Zero exposure

Plug and play.
The risk is none

  1. 01

    Works where people already are — WhatsApp, Telegram, Teams, Slack, email

  2. 02

    No system credentials requested, stored or managed to start

  3. 03

    Plug and play — potentially live within a day

  4. 04

    Same outcome as system-to-system automation — in fact better, with agentic AI

  5. 05

    Empowers your staff to deliver — never replaces them

Helm automates human-to-human coordination, not system-to-system plumbing. You get the outcome of automation without handing over system access.

No connectors to your core systems. No new attack surface. No security review to get started.

Security

Built for enterprise environments.

Governance, access and auditability are part of how Helm works — not an afterthought. And because Helm starts with zero integration, none of the security and risk of system-to-system AI applies — while your people keep doing the work, better.

01

Client-controlled environment

Deploy in a client-controlled environment or dedicated tenancy.

02

Stateless processing architecture

Processing designed so data is not retained beyond what the work requires.

03

Role-based access

Permissions scoped to roles, departments and locations.

04

Audit trails

Every instruction, reminder, approval and submission is logged.

05

Governance history

A complete, reviewable record of how work was driven to completion.

06

Secure integration architecture

Least-privilege connections to enterprise systems.

07

Enterprise access controls

Supports SSO and centralised identity management.

08

Data governance

Configurable retention, ownership and deletion controls.

Company security perimeter

Your systems.
Your security perimeter.

Your apps and databases stay inside your organisation. The gateway masks personal data before processing and restores it when the answer returns.

Returned through the gateway

Your organisation

One company tenant connects your departments. Systems and raw data remain within your perimeter.

The gateway

Masks outbound data, restores returned answers and records the exchange.

Helm cloud

Processes masked requests without storing or retaining raw client data.

Reference deployment architecture. Masking, retention and processing controls are configured and validated for each environment. The standard zero-integration product does not require system connections.

Optional connections

Three ways to connect.

API for direct access. MCP for shared tools. RPA when there is no API. Every connection is permissioned and audited; the standard zero-integration product needs none.

Low effort

API

Connect directly

Helm uses a system’s published interface to access approved data and operations.

Best for

Systems with a published API

Direct access. Lower maintenance.

Medium effort

MCP

Connect through tools

Helm discovers approved tools through a shared standard, with permissions set by each server.

Best for

Many tools through one standard

One standard. More connections.

Medium–high effort

RPA

Work through the screen

An automation tool operates an existing interface when the system has no API.

Best for

Legacy apps and desktop portals

A fallback. More maintenance.

Open standards · zero lock-in

No lock-in. Ever.

We deliberately build on public industry standards instead of private formats. Your data stays in your systems, and the work stays yours.

01 / Ownership

Your database, your server

Data sits in your own environment — on-prem or your private cloud. Helm reads and writes; it never becomes the system of record.

02 / Ownership

Open, public standards

Standard SQL, REST/OpenAPI, MCP, webhooks and open file formats. No proprietary schema, no encrypted black-box store.

03 / Ownership

You own the workflows

Every workflow, prompt, rule and integration is exportable in readable form. What we build with you belongs to you.

04 / Ownership

Leave whenever you want

No exit fee, no data ransom. Turn Helm off and your data, history and workflow definitions remain intact and usable.
