HelmCore: See what store tech failures cost you, in real time

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I'm Ross, founder and CEO of HelmCore. I spent around a decade working alongside some of Ireland's largest retailers, and the same moment kept coming up. Something breaks at 2am on a Sunday across a 50-site estate. A POS lane goes down, a network link drops, a fridge starts drifting out of temperature. The IT team usually knows fairly quickly that something is wrong. What's much harder is saying what it's costing, and that's what finance and operations need to hear before anyone acts. That translation gap is the problem we set out to solve. Retail estates generate a huge volume of signals across POS, network, IoT and energy. Those signals sit in separate tools and arrive as a wall of alerts. HelmCore runs on top of the infrastructure you already have and correlates those signals into one view. It then translates each issue into real-time financial impact, using cost parameters you validate yourself. Your team gets root cause analysis and clear steps to fix the problem, in language IT, finance and operations all understand. Starting our journey over 20+ years ago founding and managing a telecoms and cybersecurity company, the more time we spent inside real retail estates, the clearer it became that retailers didn't need more alerts. They needed to know which problems mattered most, and why. HelmCore is built around that shift, HelmCore is purpose-built for multi-site retail, and we'd love your feedback, especially if you run IT or operations across a distributed estate. What's the one operational issue you wish you'd caught sooner?
