      <description>You already pay for a calendar, an inbox, a phone system, and invoicing. NicNac does not replace them: Beam works across the subscriptions you already have, so the work stops falling between them. CORE is $49 a month for your first 3 months, then $99 a month for the rest of your first year; from month 13, $299 a month; from month 25, $499 a month, disclosed in the open.</description>

      <description>We are not an AI company. We are a human augmentation company - one ecosystem, built on a lineage since 1997, that answers, books, builds, and remembers, so a person becomes more capable, not less necessary. Start with the free experience — meet Beam first. CORE begins at $49 a month for your first 3 months, then $99 a month for the rest of your first year, stepping to the $299 standard rate at month 13, disclosed in the open.</description>
