About us
Every company deserves a full leadership team.
Most companies never have one. Founders and owners carry the CFO's job, the CRO's, the CTO's and a dozen others at once, and decisions get made without anyone preparing the numbers or arguing the other side.
What we are building
hlpr gives a company the whole table: AI seats that each own an area, come to every discussion prepared with that area's data, challenge each other's proposals and keep a record of what was decided and whether it worked. The people stay in charge. Seats propose; people decide; and a seat earns the right to act on its own one area at a time.
We are starting with software companies, and hlpr already adapts its seat titles for agencies and local businesses, because a managing director and a CEO need the same team under different names.
How we work
People decide
Seats prepare, propose and argue. A person makes the call, and the record shows who did and why.
Autonomy is earned
Seats start by proposing. They act on their own only in an area where their track record has earned it, and only once someone turns it on.
Show the source
Every number a seat quotes cites the data it came from. If the data looks unreliable, the seat says so instead of smoothing it over.
Never hide a limit
When something is off, capped or not built yet, hlpr says so on the screen, and this website says so too.
Use it ourselves
Our own company runs on hlpr. If something is slow, confusing or wrong, we usually find out first.
