Who we are

We’re Kristie and John Ross, the team behind BeaconEdge Innovations. What began as casual evening brainstorms and “what if we…” conversations grew into a shared mission: helping businesses work smarter. We believe that better systems create better experiences for your team, your customers, and the future of your business.

Kristie brings more than 25 years of experience in the hospitality and restaurant industry, working throughout the Seacoast and Portland areas. Her deep understanding of service, operations, and what keeps a business running smoothly is at the heart of our people‑first approach.

John’s background is in insurance and technology, with over a decade spent helping businesses streamline processes, automate workflows, and solve complex problems with practical tools.

Together, we built BeaconEdge to support businesses in hospitality, real estate, beauty services, construction, and beyond. Our focus is on creating solutions that simplify day‑to‑day operations and give owners the freedom to focus on growth.

We’re proudly based in Hiram, Maine, and deeply connected to the Portland business community. But our work isn’t limited by location. Whether you’re nearby or across the country, we’re here to help you work smarter, not harder.
