What Beacon Does

Targeted Comms, Tracked Compliance, One Platform

From targeted communications to compliance tracking, AIRDAT Beacon consolidates airport communications into one central hub.

Targeted Comms

Build an audience from live AIRDAT data so every update reaches only the people it affects, no more blanket broadcasts that 90% of staff scroll past.

Target by company, qualification and permission level

Pull from live staff data, always up to date

Send once, reach exactly the right people

Rich Content Sharing

Share documents, images and formatted updates, not just a line of text in a group chat, so critical information arrives clear and complete.

Attach documents, images and formatted content

Present updates properly, not buried in plain text

Everything stored with the message, not in a separate folder

HOW IT FITS YOUR DAY

From creating comms to read receipts, in one flow.

Beacon was designed for how information actually needs to move airside. Send it, target it, prove it landed.

STEP 1 - COMPOSE

Create your Beacon

Draft an update or notice, attach documents, images or video, and set the priority.

STEP 2 - TARGET

Create your audience

Filter by permission, company and qualification. Beacon pulls data from the verified user base in real time.

STEP 3 - DELIVER

Send now or schedule

Broadcast immediately or schedule for the right moment. Recipients are notified within Beacon and over email.

STEP 4 - TRACK

Watch it land

See read receipts and acknowledgements in real time, nudge anyone who's missed it, and export the compliance trail.

WHY BEACON

Built around the way airports operate.

The same principles behind every AIRDAT system, applied to airport communications.

Consolidated

One central hub for everything. Comms, audiences, attachments and reporting in a single place. No more scattered WhatsApp groups, emails and notices.

Flexible

Target by qualification, company and permission. Schedule ahead or send immediately, shaping every audience around how your airport actually operates.

Intuitive

Clear, single-focus screens built for the apron. Write, target and send in a few taps, on any device, with nothing buried in menus.

Secure

Built on AIRDAT's verified user base. Every recipient is a known airside user, with a full, exportable audit trail behind every send.
