Open-source GPU-native orchestration for AI teams.


Helix (Helix.ml) is a high-performance, decentralized AI infrastructure platform designed for enterprises that require absolute data sovereignty and scalable inference for open-source models. Built on a foundation of vLLM and advanced GPU orchestration, Helix allows organizations to deploy, fine-tune, and manage Large Language Models (LLMs) across private clouds or secure decentralized hardware. By 2026, Helix has positioned itself as the leading alternative to closed-source API providers like OpenAI and Anthropic, catering to regulated industries such as finance and healthcare where data privacy is non-negotiable. The technical architecture leverages Kubernetes-native scaling and specialized 'Cold-Start' optimization techniques, enabling serverless-style GPU consumption that reduces idle hardware costs by up to 60%. With integrated support for LoRA adapters and quantization-aware training, Helix facilitates the transition from general-purpose models to domain-specific experts. Its market position is defined by the 'Sovereign AI' movement, providing a robust middle layer between raw hardware and application development, ensuring that proprietary data never leaves the organization's controlled environment while maintaining the performance of top-tier cloud providers.

Explore all tools that specialize in track and manage machine learning experiments. This domain focus ensures Helix delivers optimized results for this specific requirement.
Data is processed in TEE (Trusted Execution Environments) ensuring even the infrastructure provider cannot access model weights or prompts.
Proprietary caching layer that keeps model weights in distributed memory for sub-second startup of serverless GPUs.
Serves multiple fine-tuned adapters on a single base model instance simultaneously.
Allows models to be trained across distributed datasets without moving raw data to a central server.
Automatically converts models to FP8 or INT4 formats upon deployment based on hardware availability.
Built-in low-latency vector storage specifically optimized for RAG workflows at the edge.
Full audit logs of every prompt and response with PII masking and safety filters.
Create an account and generate a Secure API Key.
Install the Helix Python SDK via pip install helix-ml.
Authenticate your environment using the CLI command 'helix login'.
Select a base model from the Helix Model Registry (e.g., Llama-3, Mistral).
Define your deployment environment (Public Cloud, Private VPC, or On-prem).
Configure GPU resource requirements (A100, H100, or L40S clusters).
Upload training datasets for fine-tuning via the Secure Data Vault.
Initiate the fine-tuning job using the 'helix train' command.
Deploy the fine-tuned adapter to a serverless inference endpoint.
Integrate the OpenAI-compatible endpoint into your application code.
