Let's talk about your ideas. Well, your team's ideas.

Tell us what you're trying to solve and we'll show you how Hives handles it. No slide-deck marathon, no pitch on repeat, just a working conversation with people who do this every day.

What happens on the call

  1. You tell us what you're trying to solve: who you need to reach, and what stalls today.
  2. We walk through Hives around that, using your challenges as the example rather than a feature tour.
  3. You get straight answers on pricing, rollout effort and whether we're the right fit.

How long until we're actually running?

Most customers launch their first idea collection within two to four weeks. Setting Hives up is configuration, not an implementation project, and most of that time is your own internal work: naming owners, writing the first challenge, briefing reviewers.

Does IT have to install anything?

No. Hives is a web app with SSO for Microsoft and Google, so there is nothing to deploy and no client to roll out. Bring someone from IT to the call if you want the security and SSO questions answered on the spot.

Where is our data stored?

In the EU. We are a Swedish company, host customer data in Europe by default and are built GDPR-first, which is usually the shortest answer your legal team is hoping for.

Can people without a computer take part?

Yes, and that is the point. A QR code on the wall, a link in Teams, an email, or the mobile app: contributing takes about two minutes from a phone on the floor, with no training session required.

What does it cost?

Pricing is published, from 695 euro per month, with no per-user surcharges and no hidden implementation fees. You can read the plans before you talk to us, and we will confirm the number that fits your size on the call.

How it works

Tell us if this sounds familiar.

You asked for ideas, and people delivered. Then the ideas went into a spreadsheet, the review meeting got pushed, and the whole thing quietly faded. Not because people ran out of ideas. Because nobody could see what happened to them.

The fix isn't more effort. It's a system where every idea stays visible, from the first question to the final decision. In Hives, that's four steps:

Step 1 · Collect

Ask a good question. Get answers from everyone.

Create a challenge around the thing you actually want solved and share it where your people already are: a link in Teams, an email, a QR code on the breakroom wall. Answering takes two minutes, from a desk or from a phone on the line, and every answer lands in one place. You set the pace, too. Keep a channel always open, or run a focused two-week challenge for one team and close it when you're done.

Step 2 · Organise

Every idea gets an owner, a stage, and a next step.

The moment an idea arrives, it's in a workflow. You see what's new, who's on it, and what happens next, all in one view. Triage a week's worth of ideas over a coffee: move the strong ones forward, park the maybes, give the rest a clear answer. What used to be an afternoon in a spreadsheet becomes a routine, not a project.

Step 3 · Analyse

The numbers leadership wants, ready before they ask.

AI reads across your ideas so you don't have to. Summaries of each submission, trends across hundreds, reports built from real activity. When someone asks what came out of the program, you open a page: ideas implemented, value created, people engaged. In seconds, not spreadsheets.

Step 4 · Engage

Everyone hears back. Automatically.

The moment an idea moves, the person behind it knows. Who's reviewing it, where it stands, what was decided. You never write a status email, and nobody's idea disappears into a void. That's what keeps people contributing round after round, and how a campaign becomes a culture.

Stop guessing. Start asking.

Here's what actually changes. Decisions stop being built on assumptions and secondhand summaries, and start being built on real input from the people who know the work best. In their own words, in context. That's when things start moving: challenges get solved that never even had a name in the boardroom, and improvements show up in places leadership didn't know to look.

Try it. You'll be surprised by what your organisation already knows.
