Paper notebooks get wet, lost, and impossible to search. SunnyBee makes inspecting bee hives faster and more accurate — permanent, searchable records with two modes that fit how you actually work in the field.
Start Free InspectionsWhen you have gloves on and smoke in one hand, you need fast input. QUICK mode captures the essentials — eggs, queen status, brood pattern, stores, mood — in a structured form that takes under a minute. Voice mode lets you speak your notes hands-free.
For thorough inspections, FULL mode records per-box frame counts, honey and brood levels (%), queen seen/inferred/not found, queen cell type, varroa evidence, and a 5-point health score. Everything is timestamped, hive-tagged, and permanently stored.
Attach a SunnyBee QR label to every hive. Scan it from any phone and instantly see the full inspection history, health trend, treatments, and colony events — without searching through records manually.
When you record queen cells during an inspection, SunnyBee automatically creates a 72-hour URGENT swarm alert task. When you log new eggs, Day 9 (capping) and Day 21 (emergence) tasks are created automatically. The calendar fills itself.
Yes, completely. The structured input means every inspection contains the same data fields, which enables trend detection over time. Paper notes vary in format and are impossible to analyse across hives.
Yes. SunnyBee works offline — inspections are stored locally and synced when you return to connectivity. Apiary visits in the mountains with no signal work exactly the same as any other inspection.
Yes. PRO plan team members with Editor role can log inspections on shared apiaries. The record shows which team member performed each inspection, with full timestamps.
All records are stored securely on SunnyBee servers with daily backups. PRO plan includes Excel export.
