As we close out 2025, I'm reflecting on what has been an extraordinary year for Beacon. It was defined by rapid growth, strong partnerships, and most importantly, the trust our customers, team, and investors have placed in us. Seeing how far we've come has been humbling, and I'm incredibly grateful to everyone who's been part of this journey.


The Numbers Tell a Story


We achieved 30% quarter-over-quarter revenue growth this year. But behind that number is something more meaningful: dozens of enterprise technology companies who chose to trust Beacon with their most critical customer implementations. Companies like GreytHR, Rapido, Delhivery, and Hero Insurance joined our growing roster of clients including Darwinbox, Planful, Zluri, Capillary Technologies, and Keka.


Each of these partnerships represents a leap of faith. It reflects a belief that there's a better way to deliver enterprise software implementations.


Honestly, there were moments this year when I questioned if we were moving too fast. Expansion into a new market while scaling the product felt premature at times. But every successful go-live, every hour saved, every seamless implementation reinforced why we built Beacon in the first place: to make software frictionless.


We believe software should adapt to how people work, not the other way around. For too long, users have had to learn complex systems just to do their jobs. That's the real bottleneck. Our vision is a self-driving experience where software learns your role, your workflows, your needs. Getting through the messy middle between sale and value is just the first step in that journey, but it's a critical one. If we can orchestrate implementations intelligently, we can orchestrate the entire software experience intelligently.


Backing from Believers


In 2025, we closed our $7 million Series A round led by Sorin Investments, with participation from Athera Venture Partners, JAFCO Asia, and our existing partner Unicorn India Ventures. We were also fortunate to have industry leaders like Aneesh Reddy (Capillary Technologies), Kapil Bharti (Delhivery), and Aravind Sanka (Rapido) join as angel investors.



These aren't just financial backers, but in fact operators who've lived the pain of scaling enterprise software deployments. Their confidence in our vision validates what we've believed from day one: orchestrating how implementations actually happen isn't just a nice-to-have feature, but fundamental infrastructure for any company serious about scaling enterprise software.


Recognition and Responsibility



Being named to Forbes India's DGEMS 2025 "Select 200" was a proud moment for our entire team. It's a highly selective recognition that puts us alongside some of the most innovative companies with global potential. But every recognition comes with responsibility. It pushes us to think bigger, move faster, and deliver even more value to the companies that depend on us.


Breaking Into North America


One of our most significant achievements this year was successfully expanding into North America. By staying laser-focused on orchestrating the deployment reality as our core use case, we've resonated with US enterprise technology companies facing the same challenges we saw in other markets: deployments that take too long, cost too much, and introduce too much risk.



What's been particularly encouraging is the response from professional services and implementation leaders in InsurTech, HRMS, supply chain, and finance. They're getting excited about what we're building because they're living the problem every day. The North American market has given us a warm welcome, and we're just getting started.


The Team Behind the Mission


None of this happens without incredible people. This year, we brought on talented individuals across engineering, product, and go-to-market. Leaders who share our conviction that enterprise implementations should be orchestrated, not improvised.



To our team: thank you for the late nights, the bold ideas, and the relentless focus on our customers' success. You're building something special.


Looking Ahead: 2026 and Beyond


So what's next? We're not slowing down.


Doubling Down on North America: Our 2025 traction in the US was just the beginning. In 2026, we're significantly expanding our presence across North American enterprise technology companies, particularly in regulated industries where deployment excellence isn't just optional but mission-critical.


3x Growth: We believe we're positioned to triple our revenue in 2026. The market momentum we're seeing, combined with our expanded capabilities, gives us confidence in this trajectory. The market is ready for better deployment infrastructure, and we're ready to deliver.


Becoming the Global Standard: Our ambition is clear. We want Beacon to become the default choice for enterprise technology implementations worldwide. When companies think about deploying complex SaaS solutions at scale, we want them to think of Beacon first, and only.


Thank You


To our customers: thank you for trusting us with your most important deployments. Your feedback makes us better every day.


To our investors: thank you for believing in us when we were just a vision on a whiteboard. Your support gives us the runway to build something enduring.


To our team: thank you for showing up every day with energy, creativity, and an obsession with customer success. You're the reason this works.


And to our partners, advisors, and supporters: thank you for being part of the Beacon story.


2025 was a breakthrough year, and we see it as a foundation for what comes next.


Here's to 2026. It's still day 0, but we’re no longer unproven.
