The statements are there. The transactions are there. Every answer is buried in your books — scattered across bank feeds, payroll runs, processors, and accounting systems. The problem isn't data. The problem is time. Helcyon reads everything for you and delivers plain-English diagnoses you can act on in minutes.

Runway Compression Detected
Runway dropped from 3.8 to 3.1 months over the past six weeks. Payroll increased 8% with two new hires. Collections slowed 6 days on average. Processor fees up 12% after discount tier reset.
The System
It watches the numbers the way a CFO would — only without getting tired.
Link your accounting, banks, cards, payroll, and processors. Setup takes minutes. Read-only connections. No switching software.
Not summaries. Not dashboards. The raw activity: every transaction, every invoice, every payout, every payroll run, every vendor change, every fee.
It interprets what changed, why it changed, whether it's normal, and how long you have before it matters.
When conditions change, you don't get a dashboard. You get a briefing you can read in under two minutes. The condition, the drivers, the trajectory.
If something urgent breaks between reports, you hear immediately.
The Output
When conditions change, you get the one thing nobody gives you: meaning. Not a dashboard. Not an export. Not a chart.
A diagnosis in English. The condition. The drivers. The trajectory. What decisions are on the table.
"Your margin is eroding because payroll expanded faster than revenue growth from your three largest customers. At current trajectory, you'll cross into negative cash flow in approximately eight weeks."

Built For
Companies who want the truth sooner, don't want to hire a full-time CFO yet, and are tired of "everything looks fine" followed by surprise cash stress.
You're already doing the work. You shouldn't also have to interpret every number yourself just to sleep at night.
