Full diagnostics expand across all five Business Vital Signs™ with forward risk modeling.

Most businesses don't fail from one big mistake.
They fail from hundreds of silent ones — unnoticed, uncorrected, compounding.

Helcyon catches them early. Traces the cause. Prescribes the fix — before damage compounds.

What Is Financial Diagnosis?

Financial diagnosis is the continuous interpretation of financial data to identify risk, waste, and opportunity — before problems appear on reports. Unlike traditional accounting that tells you what happened, diagnosis tells you what's happening and what to do about it.

Helcyon applies this approach using Business Vital Signs™ — five proprietary metrics that determine whether a business is healthy, stressed, or heading toward failure.

The Framework

Five Vital Signs.
Monitored Continuously.

Every diagnosis is grounded in the signals that determine financial health.
