Stop working between fragmented systems

Your time should be spent on the deal, not the admin.

HelmOS connects to the packages your team already uses — mail, voyage files, ops exports — learning to match how you work, prepping the next action for your approval. Less tab-hopping to answer “how can I move this fixture forward?”

For shipbrokers, owners, and chartering teams tired of re-keying the same fixture across inbox, ops, and accounting — and wanting one place that remembers the deal.

Receivers think owners are a touch light. If you can see USD 34.00 pmt FIO on same laycan we may have a deal.

A learning desk

Software that learns your chartering rules and follows them every time

More than reading email — HelmOS ingests context from the tools your desk already runs, learns from the decisions you already make, and stays useful when those systems change.

01

Connect your existing stack

HelmOS pulls from mail, charter-party folders, voyage exports, and the ops tools you already use — then builds a first draft of how your desk actually works.

Microsoft 365, voyage accounting, fleet positions, house recap format

02

Learn from your decisions

Approve, edit, or reject a draft — that is all HelmOS needs. Your call becomes a house rule, not a one-off fix, so the desk gets sharper while you stay in judgement-only mode.

Rate ladders, laycan wording, counterparty preferences

03

Recover when systems change

When a vendor renames a field, a folder moves, or you add another SaaS login, the desk adapts — without rebuilding integrations from scratch.

New contacts, renamed CP tabs, ops export format drift

Outcomes, not features

What changes when the desk runs on HelmOS

One workspace for the fixture story — not another dashboard to check before you reply.

Every inbound signal

linked to the right fixture

Mail, file drops, and updates from connected systems land on the deal — not lost in another tab.

Every draft reply

grounded in your deal terms

Freight, laycan, cargo, and route pulled from the thread and your workspace — not generic boilerplate.

Every pipeline stage

current without manual updates

Subjects lifted, recap sent, documentation started — the board reflects reality without re-keying into a fourth dashboard.

Built for serious operators

  • Connects to mail and the systems you already run
  • Microsoft 365–aware workflows
  • Role-based data access
  • Encryption in transit and at rest
  • Human approval on every outbound action

See it on your fixtures

We walk you through a demo on your segment, your integrations, and your workflows — not a generic slide deck.
