1. Data collection inside the hive

BeeHUB Sense — expansion module with extra inputs for temperature, humidity or custom sensors.

BeeHUB Queen / GPS — main unit with hive weight scale, acoustics and location tracking.

Continuous measurements: temperature, humidity, sound spectrum, hive weight, GPS.

2. Secure transfer to the cloud

All sensor data is transmitted via NB‑IoT / LTE‑M / GSM with optional Wi‑Fi or BLE. The Intelligent Hives cloud stores and processes hive telemetry, ensuring:

  • 24/7 availability
  • Secure storage (no retention limits)
  • Swarm detection AI and anomaly alerts

3. Smart analysis & AI assistant

Our platform applies machine learning to recognize early swarm signatures, sudden weight changes, or abnormal microclimate patterns. You receive:

  • Swarm risk alerts and hive health insights
  • Harvest predictions and historical reports

4. Direct value for beekeepers

Through the mobile app (iOS/Android) or web app (beehub.app) you can:

  • Monitor multiple apiaries in real time (remote hive monitoring)
  • Get notifications and alerts (in‑app, email, soon WhatsApp)
  • Manage inspections, notes, and harvests; export CSV/Excel

Why Intelligent Hives? Unlike traditional tools, BeeHUB is an intelligent beekeeping platform for smart beekeeping — covering all critical hive parameters in one device, built for outdoor reliability (−20 °C to +50 °C, IP65) and scalability from hobbyists to commercial apiaries.
