The Beemaps MCP is live.
AI agents can now query real-world road intelligence directly—speed limits, lanes, signage, imagery, and AI Event Videos capturing real road events.
Natural language in.
Structured data and video out.

700M+ km mapped.
36% of the world.
Tens of thousands of devices.
Just the beginning.
The Bee is an unparalleled machine — and soon, one in every car.
Now just $19/month.
Get your Bee today. Link in bio.

Demand is exploding — now we need supply to match.
Tag a fleet manager who should get a Bee.
Costs $19/month - that’s less than 2 beers.

Bee road km mapped grew almost 10% w/w 📈
Thanks to the amazing Hivemapper community 🙏

We have now mapped 35% of the global road network. Here are our 6 principles for mapping we live by internally when building @Hivemapper .
1. Radical attention to detail
2. Data accuracy…at scale
3. Push intelligence to the edge
4. Machines > Humans
5. Probabilistic consensus always beats rules-based
6. Start with scalable foundation and narrow focus
(and of course passive mapping is the only way)
Some additional notes some of these.
Data at scale is unforgiving
92% accuracy sounds good—until you’re mapping 10M unique objects. That’s 800K wrong features. At 95%, it’s still 500K errors. You need >98% accuracy to build a great map.
Push intelligence to the edge
If you don’t you’ll go broke. It's that simple. There are other good reasons for this but that is the primary reason.
Probabilistic consensus always beats rules-based
“If X then Y” fails in the real world. Every rule has a thousand exceptions. The world is too chaotic for manual logic trees.
AI > humans for QA
Humans get bored. They miss stuff. Managing them adds cost. AI is faster, more consistent, and getting better daily.
Scalable foundation > flashy
Start with a narrow, boring-looking product—if the foundation scales, you’ll win. Real leverage comes from systems that learn and improve with use.
A huge thank to the entire Hivemapper community. Still much work to do, but the core is working.

Mapping day or night with the Hivemapper Bee.
A huge unlock for customers as now we can reliably roadwork construction and other high value objects.

Beneath the Bee's hood:
Every object is cross-checked by a swarm of Bee devices.
Only when multiple Bees confirm the same attributes —location, azimuth, speed — do we call it real.
That’s Swarm Consistency. It’s how we turn raw perception into ground truth for machines.

Thrilled to welcome NBCUniversal as a Bee Maps customer.
We're proud to support one of the world's top media and entertainment companies.
Could not have happened without the entire Hivemapper Community 💪

Hivemapper landed a Fortune 50 customer today💪
And yes, we will be able to announce them.
Stay tuned.

Austin is growing fast—10K+ new homes a year—and outdated maps can’t keep up.
We tested a faster update method with @TryBeeMaps (powered by @Hivemapper) using Maxar satellite change detection, street-level bursts and fresh imagery.
80% of changes validated.

I'm very happy that I upgraded to the LTE. Talk about passive. Like opening a fresh jar of Skippy every day. Smooth and satisfying. Worth the near 18 month wait. I love these real world projects.

If we train AI on the unexpected, maybe it can expect the unexpected.
The point is, sadly, roads can intersect with where wildlife cross.
Crazy things can happen on the road -- and frequently do.
The more we can all prepare, the better.

Couldn't fit a normal-sized car 🚙
So we did the next best thing... We strapped Bees to the top of RC cars. And we're racing them! 🏁
We're at the DePIN Science Fair during @solana #Accelerate
Come by if you're around!

New Bee model rolling out to devices soon will start detecting and mapping utility poles.
Bee Maps retweeted
Gonna say the quiet part out loud.
All the fancy “safety features” Samsara sells? The Bee can do them easily.
Why?
Because the Bee is building a live model of the physical world.
It knows when there’s a traffic light. It knows the color.
If your driver runs a red light, the Bee knows. Instantly.

Lyft is a the latest big customer of Hivemapper's mapping data. It's incredible to see DePIN delivering real world utility at scale.
Lyft wants the freshest map data and that freshness is only possible with Hivemapper's unique DePIN business model.
We’re proud to see @Lyft relying on our network to help build and maintain its maps.
The best ride hailing marketplaces want the freshest map data.
