For/FREELANCERS

Your whole business on one platform, plus an AI team of one.

CRM, projects, time, invoicing, and documents in a single workspace. AI agents handle the ops work so your billable hours stay billable.

Helm is an AI work platform for freelancers who bill by the hour or by the project. Track time, send invoices, run client relationships, and chase late payments, all from one workspace. AI agents handle the admin drag (reminders, follow-ups, status updates) so your hours go back into paid work instead of running your own back office.

Why freelancers run on Helm

The friction we remove.

Every admin hour is an unbilled hour.

Freelancers lose 20-30% of their week to scheduling, invoicing, chasing payments, and status updates. Helm's AI agents handle the recurring parts of that work (weekly client updates, dunning, meeting summaries) so you get those hours back to bill or to rest.

Per-seat tools are priced for teams you don't have.

Helm is priced per workspace, not per seat. You pay the same on a solo workspace as a 5-person team does. No upsells for features you already need as a business of one. Full access to all 12 apps on every plan.

Payment collection shouldn't be a second skill.

Stripe-powered invoices, automated reminder sequences, and a Payment Recovery agent that chases overdue invoices on personalized cadences. You stop being your own collection agency.

Professional appearance without the effort.

Branded estimates, invoices, and client-facing documents come standard. Optional client portal on higher tiers. Clients see a polished business, not a freelancer juggling spreadsheets.

Pricing

Per-workspace pricing. No per-seat tax.

Helm is priced per workspace, not per seat. When your AI staff help a smaller team do the work of a bigger one, your bill doesn't go up for being lean. All 12 apps are included on every plan.

FAQ

Questions from freelancers.

Is Helm overkill for a solo freelancer?

No. Per-workspace pricing means a solo operator pays the same as a small team. You can use as many or as few apps as you want; the platform doesn't charge extra for unused capacity.

What about simple invoicing tools like FreshBooks or Harvest?

Those cover invoicing and time tracking. Helm covers those plus CRM, projects, documents, email, and (crucially) AI agents that automate the admin around them. The upgrade pays for itself when you stop running three subscriptions.

Can I use Helm just for invoicing and time tracking?

Yes. Every app is optional. Many freelancers start with just Time Tracking and Invoicing, then add CRM and Projects as their business grows.

What's the cheapest way to start?

Starter plan includes all 12 apps with limits on projects (25), tasks (500), and contacts (250). More than enough for most freelancers. AI agents are included; external integrations require Pro.

Can I bring in a subcontractor or collaborator?

Yes. Starter includes up to 10 guest seats, useful for occasional collaborators or clients accessing shared documents. Pro and Business expand the guest limits.
