Beekeeping is an ancient art, but your tools shouldn't be. HiveSight combines the aesthetic charm of a vintage beekeeper’s logbook with cutting-edge artificial intelligence to give you the ultimate apiary management experience. Whether you are a backyard hobbyist with two hives or a sideline beekeeper managing pollination contracts, HiveSight replaces clunky spreadsheets and messy notebooks with an elegant, powerful, and easy-to-use dashboard. AI Mite Scanning Stop guessing your mite loads. Simply snap a photo, and our advanced AI vision model will instantly analyze the image, count the mites, calculate the percentage load, and provide actionable treatment recommendations based on economic thresholds. Hands-Free Voice Inspections Keep your gloves on. HiveSight features an integrated speech-to-text engine. Tap the microphone and simply speak your observations out loud while inspecting the frames. Your voice is instantly transcribed into detailed, saved notes. The 9-Grid Dashboard Manage every aspect of your hive with a beautifully designed, intuitive interface: Queen Tracking: Log breed (Saskatraz, Carniolan, Italian), emergence dates, and international color codes. Harvest Logs: Track your honey yields in lbs, log floral sources, and record moisture levels. Apiary Finance: Treat your apiary like a business. Track income from honey sales and pollination, against expenses like woodenware and feed. Health & Treatments: Log application and removal dates for medications like Formic Pro, Apivar, and Oxalic Acid. Feeding Schedules: Keep track of syrup ratios and pollen patties to ensure winter survival. Smart Tasks: Set reminders to add supers, split hives, or remove mite treatments. Automatic Scoring & PDF Reports HiveSight automatically grades your hive’s health (Healthy, Monitor Closely, Unhealthy) based on your inspection data. Need records for the state inspector or your bee club? Generate professional, beautifully formatted PDF reports for any hive with a single tap. Offline-Ready & GPS Enabled Drop a pin on your new hives. HiveSight automatically captures GPS coordinates for your apiaries and works seamlessly out in the field. Local weather integration ensures you always know if it’s a good day to crack open the boxes. Upgrade your beekeeping. Protect your bees with AI, save time with voice notes, and manage your apiary with HiveSight. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
