About Beacon Pulse

Beacon Pulse exists to solve a simple, widespread problem: clinicians spend hours of their day on documentation instead of patients. We built an AI clinical scribe that listens to a consultation and drafts the documentation, so that time goes back to the people who actually need it — the clinician, and the patient in front of them.

Beacon Pulse is a product of Beacon, a South African technology company. Our other product, Beacon Education, trains healthcare students across nine professions using AI-simulated patients — many of whom will go on to become the doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals using Beacon Pulse in their own practices.

We're building for South African healthcare practices first, with the systems, data protection, and privacy expectations of a healthcare tool at the center of how the product is built — not added on afterward.
