Check-ins for growing teams

Get every team’s update without chasing anyone.

Beam sends check-ins on your schedule, reminds anyone who hasn’t answered, and shows you in one view which goals and people need your attention.

No credit card needed. Built for founders and operations leaders.

The weekly update is broken.

“Monday is status-chasing day.”
“Half the team answers in chat, half in email, and some not at all.”
“The status meeting takes an hour and I still don’t know what’s stuck.”

Before Beam, Family’s leadership held two to three meetings a week just to follow up on performance.

Set up a check-in cycle once. Updates arrive every week.

STEP 01

Build it

Write your own questions or pick from Beam’s question library, then add a goal reflection or a quick mood pulse.

STEP 02

Choose who and when

Send it to everyone, to groups or to named people, and leave anyone out. Daily, weekly, every two weeks, monthly or once, in each person’s own time zone.

STEP 03

Read it together

Public check-ins land in a team feed where people comment and build on each other’s answers. See who hasn’t answered and send a reminder.

TEAM FEED

See the blocker. Answer it in the thread.

Public check-ins land in a team feed. Anyone can reply, so a blocker gets an answer in writing instead of waiting for the next meeting.

Beam cycle responses: 7 of 8 submitted, with a Remind button next to the one person who has not answered
RESPONSES

Know who hasn’t answered. Remind them from the same screen.

Every send shows who has submitted and who is still pending. Remind one person, or everyone pending at once.

One check-in tool,
every kind of update

Pick questions from Beam’s question library or write your own. Then choose who gets it and how often.

MANAGER OVERVIEW

Everything that needs your attention, on one page.

The Overview turns every check-in, goal and piece of feedback into a single view of your team: whose goal is behind, whose check-in is outstanding, and who hasn’t had feedback this quarter.

GOALS · OKRS & KPIS

Every update points at a goal.

Set company goals and KPIs, align each team’s goals to them, and ask people to reflect on their goals inside their check-in.

FEEDBACK · PRAISE WALL

Nobody on the team goes unnoticed.

Ask for feedback, give it in a couple of minutes, and celebrate good work on a praise wall the whole team can see.

From leaders who run their week on Beam

“I like the mood feature. It’s a very subtle way to give insights into how your staff may be feeling.”

Dessy
Founder, Twentysix

“There’s more clarity to the game plan than before. It is easier to contain a lot of errors and mistakes compared to before Beam, where you realize those things at the end of the process.”

Deniyi Mayowa
COO and Co-founder, Family

“Personally, it has helped me with my managerial skills.”

Questions

Do we need Slack?

No. People get an email when a check-in is due and answer in Beam.

How long does it take to set up a check-in?

Pick questions from the library or write your own, choose who gets it and when, and send.

Can people answer anonymously?

Yes. Anonymous check-ins show only combined results, and they’re limited to questions and the mood pulse.

Does it work for teams in different countries?

Yes. Each person gets the check-in in their own time zone.

What if someone is on leave?

They set themselves as out of office in their profile, with a return date. Their check-ins show them as out of office until then, and the cycle carries on for everyone else.

Cancel the status meeting. Keep the updates.

No credit card needed.
