Platform Helm is a lean, modular content-operations suite for WordPress. Internal link building, link-health monitoring, content audits, and AI-assisted SEO — done well, together, and out of your way the rest of the time.
You publish consistently — but most WordPress sites quietly waste their own ranking power. Here's where it goes.
Posts with no internal links pointing to them are invisible to crawlers and to readers. They sit unranked, doing nothing.
Linking by hand doesn't scale. You forget older posts, miss the best anchor text, and never go back to fix it.
Pages slowly lose traffic and you can't see which to keep, refresh, merge, or delete — so you guess, or do nothing.
Four flagship capabilities — each a module you switch on independently.
As you write, Helm surfaces existing posts you could link to — using your Yoast or Rank Math focus keywords. It ignores headings, image attributes, and existing links, so every suggestion is genuine, linkable body text.
Paste your orphan URLs and Helm finds keyword-matched source posts across your whole library, then injects links with DOM-aware placement — in batches, with a progress bar. Every modified post is backed up first.
Connect Google Search Console and Helm scores every post on real traffic plus on-page health into a clear worklist: Keep, Refresh, Merge, or Delete. Recommend-only, batched, with CSV export — so decisions stop being guesswork.
Connect any OpenAI-compatible API (Groq recommended — free and private). Your key is encrypted at rest and used only when you click an AI button in the admin — never on public page loads. Score an intro for AI-answer-engine visibility and draft meta tags to copy across.
Every feature is a self-contained module. Disabled modules register zero hooks and add zero overhead — Helm stays as light as the work you actually use it for.
In-editor suggestions for existing posts, with one-click insertion in classic & block editors.
Bulk-build keyword-matched links to orphan pages, batched, with per-post backup & restore.
Orphan pages, broken links & link totals, with rescan, CSV export and weekly email alerts.
Encrypted, OpenAI-compatible connection. Used only on click in the admin — never on page loads.

No. Platform Helm reads your existing focus keywords and only ever outputs suggestions — it never writes meta tags or sitemaps. It's designed to sit alongside your SEO plugin and make it more effective.
Every feature is a module you switch on independently, and disabled modules register zero hooks — so they add zero overhead. AI features only run when you click a button in the admin, never on public page loads.
Nothing is deleted on deactivation — ever. Your settings and data are preserved. Data is only removed on uninstall, and only if you explicitly opt in to that in settings.
Only if you want the AI modules. They work with any OpenAI-compatible API — Groq is recommended because it's free and privacy-friendly. Your key is encrypted at rest. The internal-linking and audit features need no AI at all.
WordPress 6.0+ and PHP 8.0+. Tested up to the latest WordPress release.
Yes. The Agency & Managed tier includes optional done-for-you setup and an ongoing performance retainer — we configure Helm around your content and run it for you.
