What it does

The Deep Research server gives your assistant a virtual research desk: an isolated cloud environment with a stealth browser that reaches official sources directly — SEC EDGAR, company IR pages, congressional disclosures, live market data. Each tool runs structured, domain-grounded work against those sources, so outputs are quantitative, source-cited investment artifacts rather than guesses.

It is built for hedge funds, asset managers, VCs and corporate strategy teams who want the structured groundwork, monitoring, triage, comps, briefs, automated, while keeping the investment judgment with their team.

  2. 2

    Connect your OpenHelm account

    Click Connect and you are sent to app.openhelm.ai/connect to authorise via OAuth 2.1. Your encrypted OpenHelm API key is wrapped in a signed token, the server itself stores no secrets.

    New accounts add a card to activate a 14-day free trial (you are not billed during the trial). This keeps the shared cloud compute protected from multi-account abuse.
