What's on your desk right now?

Every one of these situations is something HELM can turn into a decision-ready output -- typically within hours.

Board Decision Support

A board meeting is days away and the briefing pack is stale. HELM generates a current board pack with talking points and anticipated Q&A.

Competitor Response

A competitor just made a move and your team needs a response brief by Monday. HELM delivers a competitive analysis with recommended actions.

See the workflow

Strategy Refresh

The annual plan is six months old and the market has shifted. Upload your strategy document and HELM audits it against current conditions.

Corp Dev Shortlisting

The CEO wants an acquisition longlist by end of week. HELM identifies, scores, and ranks targets with strategic fit analysis.

Executive Briefing

You need a decision brief on a complex topic and cannot wait for a consulting engagement. HELM produces a structured brief with options and recommendations.

A consulting-grade workflow, not a chatbot

Every output follows the same structured process a top-tier firm uses -- research, analysis, review, and delivery. The difference: hours instead of weeks.

STEP 1

Context

HELM ingests your company documents, prior analyses, and business context. Everything that follows is grounded in your reality, not generic advice.

STEP 2

Research & Analysis

Structured research across the relevant domain -- industry, competitors, targets, regulations. Multiple analytical passes, not a single prompt-response.

STEP 3

Review & Refine

You review the workplan before execution and provide section-by-section feedback on deliverables. Quality-assured with automated hallucination detection.

STEP 4

Decision-Ready Output

Board-ready documents with executive summaries, talking points, and recommendations. Export to DOCX, PDF, or PPTX. Present directly from the platform.

Automation

Set the strategy routine once

HELM runs it on schedule, highlights what changed, and delivers the briefing.

Most teams know they should regularly check the market, competitors, technology shifts, and regulatory changes. The problem is that someone has to remember, gather the inputs, run the analysis, and turn it into something useful. Scheduled Strategy Workflows let you automate that recurring strategy rhythm inside HELM.

Pick the industries, competitors, market signals, technologies, regulations, or opportunities you want HELM to track. Choose the analysis steps, set the cadence, and decide whether the result should be saved, emailed, or turned into a report. Each run highlights what has changed since the last one, with links back to the underlying work in HELM.

  • Choose what to track
    Industries, competitors, market signals, technologies, regulations, or opportunities -- anchor each run to the items that matter
  • Choose the analysis and cadence
    Select the steps HELM should run and set how often -- daily, weekly, monthly, or custom
  • Choose how it lands
    Save the artifact in HELM, email it to your team, or turn it into a report
  • Read only what's new
    Every run highlights what has changed since the last one, with links back to the underlying work in HELM

Step 2: Prioritise
Growth Initiative Portfolio

Score every initiative across strategic alignment, revenue upside, execution risk, and resource contention.

Step 3: De-risk
Strategic Risk Radar

Surface risks across all your data -- initiatives, diagnostics, and market conditions. Each risk scored for likelihood, impact, and velocity.

4
Step 4: Decide
Executive Decision Briefs

For each major decision, get structured options with pros, cons, risks, resource requirements, and a clear recommendation.

5
Step 5: Challenge

Step 6: Focus
Weekly Executive Agenda

A prioritised weekly action plan: focus areas with time investment guidance, decisions due with deadlines, and delegation suggestions.

A Connected Decision Loop, Not Isolated Reports

Growth diagnostics inform initiative prioritisation. Initiative risks feed the risk radar. Risk insights shape decision briefs. Decision outcomes surface in the watch list. Everything synthesises into your weekly agenda. Each module makes the others smarter.

"Can't we just do this in ChatGPT?"

It's a fair question. Frontier models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini are genuinely impressive -- they can summarise documents, brainstorm ideas, draft memos, and answer complex questions in seconds. If you haven't tried them for strategy work, you should.

But after the first session you'll notice the gaps. The model doesn't remember last week's conversation. It doesn't know what your competitors announced yesterday. It can't connect Monday's industry analysis to Thursday's board pack. And it can't produce a document your board will trust without significant manual rework.

Frontier models provide the reasoning power. HELM provides the strategy operating layer around them -- combining monitoring, memory, workflows, collaboration, and decision-ready outputs into a platform built specifically for leadership teams.
