Licensing

Units, not numbers

How Helix Is Licensed

Pricing is simple: Helix is licensed per Edit Program with an annual governance license. No public price sheet — just clear units.

Helix is licensed at the program level for teams running genome editing programs in regulated or high stakes environments. Licensing is not per user or per seat — Helix is shared decision infrastructure.

Per Edit Program

The unit of value is an Edit Program: a target class/objective, a bounded set of edit intents, a declared policy + calibration regime, and a persistent decision history.

Annual governance license

Includes deterministic design, policy enforcement, evidence generation, and replayable exports for review and audit.

What’s included

  • Design intent, constraints, and policy selection
  • Risk enumeration gated by policy
  • Decision evidence + implied distributions (assumption bound)
  • Evidence bundle export (PDF + machine readable)

Optional tiers

  • Compute tiers (desktop, on premises, or managed)
  • Support tiers (SLA, onboarding, integration)
  • Security pack (SBOM, signing, offline mode guidance)
