Integrations

Connect Helix with the systems your school already uses. Helix supports secure data sharing with over 200 systems via APIs, helping reduce manual work and improve data accuracy.

Bring your school systems together

Most schools rely on multiple tools to manage communication, learning, reporting, accounts, websites, libraries, payments, and administration. When those systems do not talk to each other, staff are left chasing information, repeating data entry, and managing unnecessary complexity.

Helix is built to reduce that friction. With secure connectivity and API-based integrations, Helix helps your school keep information moving between systems, so your team can spend less time on manual work and more time supporting ākonga. Helix’s live site states the platform can securely share data with over 200 other systems via APIs.

Designed for modern school workflows

Integrations are not just a technical feature. They are what help your school work more smoothly day to day.

Helix supports connected workflows across communication, learning, reporting, IT account management, finance, and external education systems. That means fewer disconnected tools, fewer duplicate records, and clearer access to the information staff need.
