Workflows

No-code automation, every app.

Helm Workflows is the automation engine inside the Helm platform. Visual builder, twelve triggers across the apps you already use, twenty-plus actions including send-email and post-Slack, conditional branches, wait steps, and full execution logs. No code. No glue scripts. No tools to wire together.

12+ triggers
Tasks, projects, invoices, forms, and more.
20+ actions
Create, update, send, assign, wait, branch.
Full logs
Every execution tracked with error messages.
What's Inside

Everything you need to run workflows.

Built into the platform. No add-ons, no integrations, no per-feature pricing.

Visual builder

Drag triggers, actions, conditions, and wait steps. No YAML, no code, no duct tape. Ship a workflow in minutes.

Twelve-plus triggers

Form submitted, invoice paid, invoice updated, payment received, project created or completed, task created, updated, or completed, client created or updated.

Twenty-plus actions

Create tasks, projects, invoices, contacts, accounts, estimates, deals, time entries, documents. Send email. Post to Slack. Assign an agent. Generate a PDF. Wait.

Conditional branches

Filter with equals, greater-than, contains, starts-with, is-empty, and more. Branch the workflow differently based on the incoming data.

Wait steps and delays

Add a wait step to pause a workflow for hours, days, or weeks. Fire the next step later without writing a scheduler.

AI text generation

Generate text with AI as a step. Draft the email, summarize the data, rewrite the Slack message. Use the output in downstream actions.

How it connects

Wired into every other app by default.

Set Workflows up once. The rest of the platform uses it forever. One data layer, no sync, no glue scripts.

How it works

Triggers, actions, branches, waits.

Pick a trigger. Add actions. Branch on conditions. Pause with a wait. Publish it. When the trigger fires, the workflow runs. Execution history records every step with status, duration, and any error messages. Draft workflows stay inactive until you flip them live.

Connected by default

Automations across every app.

Because workflows operate on the same data layer as projects, invoices, forms, and CRM, you don't need Zapier or Make to glue them together. The trigger sees the real record. The action updates the real record. No data drift.

Built for AI agents

Workflows and agents work together.

Use the assign-agent action to hand work off to an AI agent mid-workflow. Use AI text generation steps to draft copy inside a workflow. Build hybrid flows where deterministic rules and agent judgment trade off cleanly. The agent does the squishy parts; the workflow does the strict ones.

Before / After

The difference an integrated workflows makes.

Without Helm

Zapier for the syncs you can afford, Make for the ones you can't, n8n if you're technical enough, and a growing pile of brittle webhooks in between. Every broken integration is a billing day lost.

With Helm

One engine operating on the same data as every other app. Triggers on real events, not webhook polls. Actions update the real record, not a copy. No glue. No sync lag. No tool to re-wire when the underlying apps change.

Common Workflows

What happens when you use it.

1
When

A client submits a contact form.

Helm does

Workflow creates the contact, opens a deal, assigns an SDR agent, and Slacks the sales channel.

2
When

A project is completed.

Helm does

Workflow generates the final invoice from unbilled time, sends it, and posts a win note to Slack.

3
When

A high-value invoice is paid.

Helm does

Workflow creates a follow-up task for the Account Manager, waits five days, then drafts a check-in email via AI text generation.

4
When

A task is marked blocked for three days.

Helm does

Workflow posts a Slack alert to the PM channel with task context and assigns a Project Coordinator agent to unblock it.

AI Staff

Agents that run on Workflows.

AI staff with scoped access, configurable autonomy, and the same data your team uses.

FAQ

Questions about Workflows.

How does Helm Workflows compare to Zapier, Make, or n8n?

Those tools sit between apps and pass data over the internet. Helm Workflows operates on the same database as your projects, invoices, forms, and CRM. Triggers see the real record. Actions update the real record. No syncs, no webhook polling, no brittle glue.

Which triggers are supported?

Form submission, invoice created, invoice updated, payment received, project created, project updated, project completed, task created, task updated, task completed, client (account) created, and client updated. A dedicated deal stage-change trigger is on the roadmap.

Which actions are supported?

Create and update tasks, projects, invoices, contacts, accounts, estimates, deals, time entries, and documents. Send email. Post to Slack. Send an invoice. Mark an invoice paid. Generate a PDF. Assign an agent. Wait. Call a webhook. AI-generate text.

Can a workflow branch on data?

Yes. Conditions support equals, greater-than, less-than, contains, starts-with, is-empty, and more. Branch the execution path based on the trigger data or the results of prior steps.

Is there an execution history?

Yes. Every workflow run is logged with step-level status, error messages, and retry counts. Debug a failed automation by inspecting the exact step that broke and why.

Do workflows trigger on a schedule?

Scheduled (cron) workflows aren't supported today. For time-driven work today, use recurring tasks that fire on a cadence and trigger a workflow via task-created events.
