The Beam

The Beam is the first place where new music artists earn. In practice that means building software for you when nothing off the shelf fits.

It makes the most sense for companies with a specific process to automate. They also list Communities and Music, so expect those to show up in the feature set. As a small company team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

The Beam is based in New York, New York. Their site is thebeam.com.

Before you commit, look at portfolio relevance, who owns the code, and how they handle changes. Get the renewal terms in writing before the first invoice.

If you have worked with The Beam, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
