Beekeeper inspecting beehive frames in golden afternoon sunlight

Know your hives.

The field tool that thinks like a beekeeper.

Built for how beekeeping actually works

Not a generic note-taking app with a bee sticker on it.

🌿
Split tracking & lineage
Every split links back to its parent colony. See your full apiary lineage as a tree: which hives came from which, how many generations deep, who your best performers descend from.
🎯
Goal-driven inspections
Choose what you're doing before you crack the lid. The app shows only what's relevant: mite check, swarm prevention, requeen, harvest. No blank forms.
🚨
Alerts that matter
Queenless detection, high varroa counts, treatment removal reminders. Problems surface at a glance. Red hive means act now, not buried in a list of notes.
🎙️
Voice dictation
Speak your notes with gloves on. Field-tested with bees buzzing. No typing, no taking your gloves off.
📡
QR & NFC tags
Stick a QR sticker on the hive lid or bind an NFC tag to the mount. Scan or tap with your phone and you're on that hive's page instantly. No menus, no scrolling.
📊
Trends that mean something
Varroa counts, brood pattern, temperament, harvest weight, all plotted across the season per hive. Spot the colony that's trending wrong before it crashes.
Built from experience

22 years of engineering. A passion for beekeeping. One question: can I build it all myself?

Built the way I think a beekeeping tool should work, not because nothing existed but because I had a clear vision for what it could be. Software, hardware, field-tested on my own hives. If it resonates with you, let's build on it together.
