Unmatched cost per effect
Each MAV launched from the mothership costs a fraction of a conventional system, making large-scale, cost-effective operations possible.
HIVE I. The Mothership.
Hive I is a compact autonomous computing platform built to operate on its own in contested environments. It carries three single-use micro aerial vehicles (MAVs), launches them, and directs them from the air.
From a single sortie it can survey an area, return actionable intelligence in real time, run complex coordinated missions, and task MAVs against high-threat objectives, with all compute and sensing onboard.

- Up to 60 min
- Range
- Up to 100 km
- Payload

- 3 single-use MAVs
Why a mothership.
Stealth-focused design
Hive I has a low radar cross-section and stays radio-silent in transit, radiating no RF until it is over the mission area.
Extended range and endurance
The mothership acts as a mobile base station, carrying MAVs to the area of operation and extending their reach well beyond standalone limits.
Autonomous leader-follower operations
With compute and sensing fully onboard, the mothership launches and directs its MAVs on its own, enabling coordinated missions without a skilled operator.
From launch to effect.
-
01
Deploy
The mothership launches with its MAVs pre-loaded and heads to the area of operation.
-
02
Coordinate
Vehicles assess the environment, adapt to changing conditions, and advance toward mission objectives.
-
03
Compute
Intelligence and commands relay between the MAVs and the mothership in real time.
-
04
Act
MAVs carry out mission tasks based on decisions made onboard the mothership.
