Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about Helios, from AI forecasting and data sources to integrations and commodity coverage.

How accurate are Helios AI forecasts?

Accuracy varies by commodity and time horizon. Every prediction ships with a confidence range and margin of error, so you always know how much weight to put on a number rather than trusting a single point estimate.

Which commodities do you cover?

Helios AI covers 80+ commodities across 100+ countries, spanning climate, price, yield, and disruption signals. Tell us your book and we will confirm exactly what we track for the commodities and regions you care about.

How does Helios source its data?

Helios AI blends satellite and weather data, market and trade data, and proprietary models into a single engine. Signals stay traceable back to their sources, so your team can see why a forecast moved.

Can we integrate Helios with our systems?

Yes. Work through the CommodiTrack dashboard, email alerts, and reports, or pipe signals straight into your stack and your AI agents through our API and MCP server.

How is Helios different from traditional research?

Traditional research explains what already happened. Helios AI is built to tell you what happens next, personalized to your exposure and delivered in time to act on it.
