Second Bee Cubeâ„¢ Prototype
Bee-Focused Designs
Enhanced Connectivity
The Bee Cube™ isn’t just a hive; it's a mobile hub for beekeepers. Its design facilitates effortless mobility between multiple apiaries, catering to various stages from pollination to honey harvesting and winter storage. This portability empowers beekeepers with adaptability and efficiency in managing bee colonies across diverse locations.
Seamless Integration
Diverse Connectivity Channels
The Bee Cube™ will accommodate technologies developed by scientists and beekeepers from all over the world. We don't have a monopoly on good ideas and we invite collaboration and partnerships with anyone who is interested.
The Bee Cube™ is 8' x 10' x 10' and will hold up to 32 bee hives which effectively lowers the per hive cost of adding new equipment.
Unique
Features
Insightful Analysis
Our technology offers several unique features that set us apart from other beekeeping solutions. We provide real-time monitoring of bee health through remote sensing capabilities, allowing beekeepers to make informed decisions about hive management. Our technology is also portable, making it easy to move between multiple apiaries. In addition, our hive management information provides timely interventions to increase productivity and maintain bee health.
Cutting Edge Informative Reports
Empowering Insights
Our technology provides advanced analytics for beekeeping management. By monitoring key factors such as temperature, humidity, CO2 levels, hive weight, and sound, we provide insights into hive health and productivity. Our analytics help beekeepers identify potential issues before they become major problems, and provide data-driven solutions to improve hive management. We are developing AI/ML models to enable even more precise hive management. With The Bee Cube™, beekeeping is more than just a hobby - it's a science.
Precision Climate Control
Profitable and Sustainable Hive Management
The Bee Cube™ climate control systems are precisely calibrated to regulate internal temperatures, ensuring an optimal environment for bee colonies, especially during periods of extreme cold. This precision contributes significantly to the bees' health and survival by mitigating temperature-related stress or harm. Bee Cube™ goes beyond weather endurance, enabling beekeepers to breed their own bees and queens. This feature promotes sustainability, allowing for resale or colony repopulation, fostering profitable beekeeping practices even in challenging climates.

FOOD for THOUGHT
Over a third of global food production depends on bee pollination. Without these vital insects, many staple fruits, vegetables, and nuts would face severe cultivation challenges. Bee Cube is committed to revolutionizing beekeeping practices to maintain a reliable bee population for agricultural needs. We aim to democratize beekeeping by making it more cost-effective and approachable, thereby protecting our food security and supporting the essential work of beekeepers in our food supply chain.
​
Bees are not only crucial pollinators but also remarkably complex creatures. Honey bees, for instance, use a sophisticated 'waggle dance' to communicate the location of food sources to their hive mates. These industrious insects have varying lifespans depending on their role and the season, with worker bees living 4-6 weeks during busy summer months but potentially several months in winter. Their productivity is astounding - to produce a single pound of honey, bees must collect nectar from approximately 2 million flowers. This level of efficiency and organization underscores the importance of maintaining healthy bee populations for our agricultural systems and ecosystems.
​
Bees are marvels of nature, combining impressive numbers with incredible efficiency. A single honey bee colony can house between 20,000 to 60,000 bees, functioning as a well-organized superorganism. Within this bustling community, individual bees showcase remarkable industriousness.
A lone honey bee can visit up to 5,000 flowers in a single day, highlighting the immense pollination power of these tiny insects. This combination of large colony sizes and individual productivity makes bees indispensable to our ecosystems and agriculture.
