# Welcome to the official Helmut4 documentation

Helmut4 is a web-based workflow management software designed for professional video productions and post-productions.

\
It manages projects in Adobe [Premiere Pro](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/getting-started/supported-adobe-versions), [After Effects](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/getting-started/supported-adobe-versions), and [Audition](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/getting-started/supported-adobe-versions), automating project-based workflows and handling project assets that typically require attention from assistant editors and technical personnel.

Helmut4 can handle your [project templates](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/helmut4-components/helmutfx), user settings, rendering distribution, [import and export](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/helmut4-components/helmutio) workflows, and much more.

To meet your specific needs, Helmut4 is running [on-premise](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/getting-started/installation-guide) and is highly customizable. It seamlessly integrates with various storages and third-party software through REST APIs, and it allows you to create your own '[streams](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/helmut4-components/streams)'—workflows that can be visually programmed using Helmut4's [stream designer](https://docs.helmut.de/helmut4-releases/v4.7.2/helmut4-components/streamdesigner).

Whether you require a standard setup, a customized configuration, or you're eager to start designing tailored workflows for your environment, this is the perfect place to begin.
