ProTopv1 - Smart Beehive Top
Converts Standard Beehives into Insulated Smart Beehives
ProTop is a solar-powered, cellular-connected hive top that transforms any standard Langstroth hive into a smart, insulated system. It continuously monitors temperature, humidity, sound, and vibration — giving beekeepers early warnings on swarming risk and overall colony health without constant hive openings. Designed for real-world beekeepers who want better data, fewer unnecessary inspections, and stronger overwintering performance. Currently live on Indiegogo.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I’m Mike, a beekeeper and the maker of ProTop.
I built this because I’ve become convinced that most modern hives are poorly insulated and put unnecessary stress on the colony. The science (and the bees) keep pointing to the same thing — temperature stability, humidity, and colony sound matter a lot more than we usually measure.
I also just love tech. With sensors and edge computing we can finally give beekeepers clear insight into what’s actually happening inside each hive, and more importantly, when they should intervene… or when they should leave the bees alone.
Would love to hear from other beekeepers and makers — what’s the biggest pain point you still deal with in hive management?
