What Circuit Medical does

Circuit Medical Limited is a London-headquartered, privately held firm founded in 2016 that operates two interconnected lines of business: Circuit Medical Consulting, a research-based Medical Affairs consultancy, and Circuit Medical Digital, which commercializes the proprietary Beacon AI platform. The consulting practice delivers twelve-plus service lines covering strategic medical brand planning, launch readiness, integrated evidence generation, clinical trials support, MSL excellence, capability building, thought leader management, and final-signatory compliance services under ABPI, EFPIA, and IFPMA codes. The Beacon AI platform consists of two named sub-products: Beacon AIR, a generative AI co-navigator for MLR (Medical/Legal/Regulatory) review and content generation with full output traceability, and Ask Beacon, an information retrieval tool addressing enterprise knowledge-access productivity loss. The company serves pharmaceutical and biotech Medical Affairs departments exclusively, with named enterprise clients including Roche, AstraZeneca, Sanofi, Takeda, Genentech, Ipsen, and LEO Pharma, and claims involvement in over 25 product launches across multiple therapeutic areas.

Revenue is generated through two streams: customized, multi-year professional services engagements (consulting) and recurring subscriptions for the Beacon AI platform plus deployment and optimization services, both priced on a quote-based, non-publicly-disclosed basis. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales with multi-lingual and multi-country regulatory compliance support, enabling global delivery from a small team of 11-50 employees. The company is ISO 27001 certified, operates as a UK private limited company (Company Number 09941617), and has disclosed no external funding rounds, acquisitions, or leadership changes in the available data, indicating a bootstrap or self-funded operating model.
