For Executive Assistants · The office floor
Orchestrate the office, stop chasing it.
Helm Office triages the inbox, drafts replies in your principal's voice, and prepares every meeting. You hold the office together; Helm holds the queue.
The shift
From firefight to operating rhythm.
Two columns. Left: the day the role runs today. Right: the day Helm Office runs for the role.
What firefighting looks like
Drag- Inbox triaged twice a day; urgent items still slip through.
- Pre-meeting packs assembled at 11pm because no one had time earlier.
- Calendar conflicts found after the principal already double-committed.
- 'Did you see my email?' threads with the principal four times a week.
- Birthdays, dietary preferences, last conversations — all in your head.
Orchestration on Helm
Cadence- Signal drafts replies in the principal's voice; you edit and queue.
- Beacon assembles the daily brief and the pre-meeting pack — automatically.
- Vector enforces calendar guardrails the principal actually respects.
- Shared approval queue means 'did you see' becomes a status, not a question.
- Atlas holds the office's institutional memory; you query it like a colleague.
Sample artifact
Pre-meeting pack for an investor 1:1 — ready before the room.
Beacon assembles context, prior conversations, open asks, and one suggested opening line. The EA edits, the principal approves.

What EAs ask in the first conversation
The honest answers.
Is Helm replacing me?
+
No. Helm Office is designed for the EA and the principal to operate the same workspace. The assistant seat is included at no extra cost. Helm clears the chase; you run the office.
Will my principal actually use it?
+
The office is the unit, not the principal alone. EAs typically drive day-one adoption — triaging in Signal, queueing in the approval rail — and the principal joins once the morning brief is reliably on time.
What does the principal see that I see?
+
The same workspace. Sensitive memory is restricted to the principal unless they share it. The approval queue is shared so 'did you see' becomes a status update.
Will Helm send anything without me?
+
No. Every send, move, cancel, and share queues for approval. You and the principal control who approves what.
