Founded in an attempt to better end colony collapse disorder, ApisProtect utilizes sensors and networking to better monitor and protect beehives. The core technology used by the start-up empowers beekeepers with the ability to monitor hives remotely 24/7. This eliminates the need for periodic manual checks and allows the bees to live a more unobstructed life. This is accomplished through a combination of machine learning and satellite-enabled sensors retrofitted into existing beehives.
ApisProtect is already being used to monitor 6 million honey bees in 144 hives across North America and Europe. This is incredible for the beekeeping industry as Apis Protect offers a fundamentally different way for beekeepers to monitor their hives and better address issues that may be affecting them.
