BUSINESS EXCEPTION MONITORING

Catch what gets missed between your business systems.

Beacon monitors the systems you already use and flags operational, billing and workflow issues before they become expensive. No new process for staff to remember. No extra dashboard to babysit.

Beacon sits above the systems you already run. It does not replace your CRM, accounting platform, job system or payment provider.

Your systems can all be working — and your process can still be broken.

A job can be marked complete in one system while invoicing never happens in another. A quote can be accepted and never reach scheduling. A customer can still be receiving service while billing has failed.

These are not missing-feature problems. They are exceptions between systems.

Problems with a cost when nobody notices.

01

Completed work that has not been invoiced

Compare operational completion with accounting records and flag work that has fallen through the billing gap.

Revenue
02

Accepted work that has stopped moving

Find quotes or opportunities that were accepted but never became scheduled work, projects or jobs.

Operations
03

Systems that disagree about the same customer or transaction

Surface mismatches across CRM, accounting, payments and operational software before staff have to investigate manually.

Data
04

Important exceptions that need management attention

Deliver a concise daily or weekly summary rather than asking owners to inspect several systems every morning.

Reporting

Use the systems your business already knows.

Beacon normalises data from connected products into one monitoring layer. Customers keep working in the software they already use.

Roadmap

Simple enough to explain in five steps.

  1. 1
    Connect

    Bring operational and financial records into a customer workspace.

  2. 2
    Compare

    Beacon maps records into a consistent model and checks them against business rules.

  3. 3
    Detect

    Unexpected states become exceptions with severity, context and financial value.

  4. 4
    Notify

    Open exceptions appear in Beacon and can be sent in scheduled email reports.

  5. 5
    Resolve

    Staff review, snooze or resolve the exception with a clear audit trail.

Customer workspaces stay separate.

Beacon was designed as a multi-tenant SaaS product from the start. Tenant identity is derived from the authenticated session, not supplied by the browser.

Tenant-scoped dataRules, exceptions, settings, connections and users are stored against the current workspace.
Encrypted connector secretsService credentials remain inside Beacon rather than being distributed across shared workflows.
Isolated automation contextAutomation executions use one-time tokens tied to a single tenant event.
Role-based accessOwners can invite users and assign owner, admin, member or viewer access.

Built for businesses that need less checking, not more software.

Start with one workspace and the exception monitoring you need today. Add integrations and monitoring rules as Beacon expands.
