What We Do
Heliux is a software platform that unifies and accelerates enterprise-wide operations for manufacturers. We’re creating a centralized operating system that integrates the manufacturing enterprise—its cross-functional teams, operations, data, and decisions—onto a single system of record and execution. From engineering to supply chain, production, and beyond, our platform replaces legacy systems of record such as Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Manufacturing Execution System (MES), and other point solutions to drive unified performance across operations. Based out of San Francisco, CA, Heliux is on a mission to drive unprecedented velocity in manufacturing. We’re backed by investors from New Stack Ventures, Marlinspike, Humba Ventures, Amplify.LA, Crosscut Ventures, and Lux Capital.
