The expression "beat to" means that something is so thoroughly done or destroyed that it cannot be fixed. It is usually used for physical objects that have been damaged beyond repair, but can also be used for situations that have gone wrong and can't be fixed. For example, if a car has been in a serious accident, it might be "beat to" and cannot be repaired. Similarly, if a project has gone terribly wrong, it might be "beat to" and cannot be salvaged. It is a colloquial expression that is used in informal contexts.
