Every apiary visit hands-free, by voice.
Document inspections field by field — queen, brood, frames, honey supers — or add a quick voice note. Everything saved, searchable, exportable. Works even without a network.
"Queen seen, compact brood on 7 frames, ample stores. One super added."
Paper and memory are not enough.
Every beekeeper has been there: returning home and forgetting the details, unreadable notebooks, data you cannot analyse.
Incomplete information
After an inspection, crucial details fade fast. Memory is not a reliable archive.
Lost notes
Wet notebooks, loose scraps, illegible handwriting. Years of data gone forever.
No analysis possible
Without structured historical data it is impossible to compare seasons or spot recurring problems in your colonies.
Everything you need in the apiary.
Manage apiaries and hives, document every inspection step by step, review history and analyse the season.
Visit your hives without touching your phone.
Voice Mode guides the beekeeper from hive to hive using voice commands alone. No touching, no removing gloves. Works completely offline — even with zero network coverage.
headphones Tip: a Bluetooth earphone (even an inexpensive one) significantly improves voice recognition in the apiary.
Apiaries, Hives & Inspections
Organise all your hives by location. Each hive has its own profile with code, status and a full visit history.
Voice Notes with Transcription
Attach a spoken note to any inspection. The text is transcribed automatically — and editable at any time.
100% Offline
Apiary in a remote area? No problem. Apista works perfectly without a network, even for structured inspections.
Complete History & Analytics
Filter visits and inspections by period, compare seasons, and monitor colony health trends over time.
Step-by-Step Guided Inspection
Queen, eggs, behaviour, frames (interactive grid), honey supers and colony rating. Each field pre-filled from the last visit.
The whole apiary by voice. Zero touches.
Start a session and the app guides you hive by hive: it reads the hive name, waits for your voice confirmation, records while you speak, and saves on command. Keep your gloves on the whole time.
"Next hive"
A single voice command advances the app to the next hive. Or say the number directly: "hive three". No touching the screen.
Speak, record, save
Say "record", describe your observations, then "save". Transcription happens in real time. Gloves stay on for the entire visit.
Earphones = better results
A Bluetooth earphone (even a cheap one) brings the mic closer to your mouth and greatly improves recognition accuracy in the apiary. Very affordable and worth it.
Every field in its place.
A guided screen that walks the beekeeper from hive opening to final rating. Precise data, nothing forgotten.
