Phase Two: Steady Pace began on March 16th, 2024 at 12:00 AM PDT. We will announce the end of Phase Two at least 72 hours in advance. Once closed, the price of Bee will increase and the HONEY bonus will decrease.
Rapid Rush ended on March 15th, 2024 at 11:59 PM PDT.
Yes! For every unit you pre-order, you will qualify for a HONEY bonus. Rapid Rush provides the largest bonus between the three phases. The HONEY bonus amount will be announced before the end of each phase.
To claim the HONEY bonus, it is necessary to provide the original Bee purchase order number. Purchases must be made through Hivemapper or authorized distributors. Purchases made through unauthorized resellers are ineligible for the HONEY bonus.
Note: Orders placed from December and January that were upgraded will receive the HONEY bonus specified in your upgrade email.
If you convert an existing order to Bee, you are eligible for either the original bonus offered at the time of order or the Rapid Rush bonus, whichever is larger. The bonus for Rapid Rush orders will be announced at a later date.
Bee will start shipping in Q3 2024, beginning with Phase One: Rapid Rush preorders. We strictly follow our “first order, first ship” policy. If you are currently waiting for a Hivemapper Dashcam or a Hivemapper Dashcam S and you upgrade your order to Bee, you’ll keep your place in line, and when Bee is ready to start shipping, will be earlier in the queue. We encourage customers to switch and put themselves at the front of the line for our best mapping machine yet.
Hivemapper Dashcam S: To fulfill as many orders as possible before the launch of Bee, the next production run of the Hivemapper Dashcam S has been canceled. All existing orders will be converted to Bee (with Cellular LTE and WiFi) and a refund for the price difference will be automatically issued. These customers will maintain their original order number for the purposes of determining ship date. You will receive an automatic notification once your upgrade has been completed.
Hivemapper Dashcam: We will produce the Hivemapper Dashcam for the next several months as we gear up for Bee production; however, we encourage you to switch to our best device ever. Bee has far more functionality and is expected to earn greater rewards. Please check your email for a limited-time offer and instructions on how to upgrade.
If you would like to upgrade your current order to a Bee, please fill out this form and we will reach out to you with instructions.

Yes, you can cancel your Bee preorder at any time for a full refund. If you take delivery and decide it isn’t right for you, you have 14 days to indicate your plans to return your Bee and another 14 days to return it.
