Beacon

A higher standard for engineering memory.

Living knowledge for your company — grounded in GitHub, Slack, and Linear. Ask why it was built, who owns it, and what changed.

Skip Redis — Postgres is fine under 50k.

Sara owns auth / sessions.

What is Beacon

The memory layer engineering teams never had.

Beacon is not another chatbot bolted onto a wiki. It is a living engineering knowledge system: it syncs your repositories, indexes symbols and history, remembers durable facts you teach it, and answers with evidence — file paths, Slack threads, Linear issues — instead of vibes.

Ask like a teammate

“Which database does cash-Flow use?” “Who owns auth?” “Why did we skip Redis?” Beacon plans multiple tools — repo grep, manifest reads, recall — and answers from what it finds.

Grounded in real code

Local synced GitHub mirrors power find, grep, and read. Vector search and symbol indexes help when you ask in natural language. Binary noise stays out; package.json and source stay in.

Slack + Linear in the loop

Decisions hide in channels and tickets. Beacon can search Slack, pull Linear issues, and attach that provenance so “why” does not evaporate six weeks later.

Memory that compounds

Tell Beacon to remember a stack choice or ownership rule — or let it store useful facts it discovers. Next time, recall brings them back for the whole org.

A strong knowledge foundation

Everything connected. One place to ask.

Repositories

Select GitHub repos, sync mirrors, browse trees, and inspect files without leaving chat.

Org facts

Versioned knowledge in Mongo + Qdrant — latest by default, history when you ask about the past.

Verification

Conflicts and low-confidence answers surface honestly. Beacon would rather say what’s missing than invent.

How it works

From scattered history to grounded answers.

  1. 01

    Connect your stack

    Link GitHub, Slack, and Linear. Choose repositories to sync into your workspace.

  2. 02

    Beacon indexes reality

    Code chunks, symbols, PRs, issues, and remembered facts become searchable knowledge — scoped to your org.

  3. 03

    Ask anything about the company

    Use @mentions for repos and channels. Beacon plans multiple tools, gathers evidence, and replies in clear Markdown.

  4. 04

    Teach it once

    Corrections and durable decisions get remembered so the next engineer — and Beacon — start from the truth.

Secure by design

Org-scoped knowledge. Evidence over invention.

Beacon is built for companies that cannot afford hallucinated architecture advice. Every claim should trace to a repo hit, a remembered fact, or a live integration result.

Organization boundaries

Facts and searches stay inside your org workspace.

Team-ready access

Invite teammates so institutional memory is shared, not tribal.

Honest uncertainty

When evidence is thin, Beacon says what is missing.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Beacon is a living engineering knowledge assistant for your company. It connects to GitHub, Slack, and Linear, indexes real context, and answers questions like a teammate who was actually in the room when decisions were made.
