About Beacon

The AI Supply Chain Workspace for finance and
supply chain leaders.

Beacon helps enterprise finance and supply chain leaders control freight spend, reduce D&D costs, flag incorrect invoices and make their contracts work harder.

Our story

Why we
built Beacon.

Beacon was founded in London in 2018 by Fraser Robinson and Dmitri Izmailov, to give supply chain teams one place to see their shipments.

Customers kept asking the next question: what is this costing us? The answers sat in carrier portals, forwarder emails, invoices and spreadsheets, and finance and supply chain were working from different numbers.

Today Beacon is the AI Supply Chain Workspace. It connects shipment, invoice and contract data so the people who pay the freight bill can control it.
