Beamable
Boston area, United States
What it is
Beamable is an open, extensible game server platform for building and operating online games and virtual worlds. Engine-native SDKs for Unity and Unreal connect games to a serverless backend supporting cloud code, persistent data, custom gameplay logic, and Mongo-based persistence. The SDK provides player accounts, multiplayer networking, matchmaking, offers, currencies, inventory, leaderboards, groups, achievements, chat, tournaments, and multiplayer events. Its LiveOps Portal handles events, promotions, content updates, A/B tests, player support, CRM, and messaging. Beamable describes built-in analytics and event forwarding to GameAnalytics, Mixpanel, and Amplitude. Studios can use managed SaaS or AWS-powered private cloud, including dedicated single-tenant infrastructure. Plans include a 90-day free trial, paid monthly tiers, and custom enterprise pricing. The free trial includes 12.5M API calls, 1,000 MAU, and three microservices. Pricing allows 10KB bandwidth per API call; extra bandwidth is billed as overage.
