ByBeam

Beam is a civic tech organization that powers digital infrastructure for more resilient and just communities. Founded in 2016, Beam enables governments, institutions, and nonprofits to quickly and securely deliver cash assistance to people and organizations experiencing an urgent need for support. By supporting programs that catalyze economic development, we help create pathways to prosperity and communities that thrive.

Beam’s configurable cloud-based software helps organizations manage human services and social support programs with complex workflows, from collecting applications to quickly delivering flexible payments to those in need. Our approach helps agencies streamline program administration while addressing common challenges in cash assistance programs, like administrative burden, inefficiency, caseworker capacity, compliance risk, and lack of transparency.
