Start with the idea
1/4This is where you describe what you want to build, and we say honestly whether it holds up and suggest a name with the domain still free. The idea validator is paused for now, so please check back soon.
What happens, in order
6You describe it
One or two sentences, in your own words — or you point at the business you already run. There is no form to fill in and no business plan to write.
It gets pressure-tested
Your council scores the idea six ways and says so plainly when the answer is that it will not work. Better to hear that now than after you have paid for it, and the verdict stays on file afterwards.
It gets a name
Names get put in front of you, argued over, and narrowed down, until you have one worth keeping and a domain pointing at your machine.
It gets built
Connect Claude, Codex, opencode or Antigravity and choose what it may do on its own. It builds the site, the backend, the database and the mail on a server of your own, while you watch.
It goes live
Deployed, domain connected, certificate issued, mail arriving. From here it is a business rather than a project.
It keeps running
The council stays on it: mail, content, deployments, the daily work, the servers themselves. You decide what they may do without asking first.
One business. An AI council on call.
Not one assistant answering whatever you ask, and not six chatbots wearing job titles. Each seat is a role with its own business context, its own tools and its own access, and they disagree. The chair listens to all of them and comes back with a single answer, because six opinions is a meeting, not advice.
The model you connected supplies the intelligence. Helstify supplies the role, the context, the tools, the permissions and the execution.
What it costs
All three are a real environment with a council in it, and you connect your own AI to all three. Paying more buys you more of their time, more room for what you run, and more people on the account.

Product Studio is out of stockThese plans buy the machine and the council. Everything in the hosting catalogue — all 90 of it — runs on that same machine at no extra charge. There is nothing else to buy.
What you own
The domain
Registered in your name, and you can move it elsewhere whenever you like. We are not renting it to you.
The code and the data
It sits on your machine and you can take a copy at any point, including on the way out.
The decisions
Nothing your AI does is invisible. Every action is checked against the permissions you set and written down where you can read it back, and you can change the level of access or take it away at any time.
