    FAQ

    Can I import my HiveTracks data into HiveLog AI?

    Yes. HiveTracks exports CSV per apiary. HiveLog AI Pro accepts CSV imports for inspections, treatments, and weight entries.

    What's the real difference if both apps log inspections?

    The AI. HiveLog AI counts varroa from a brood-frame photo, flags queen cells, and turns inspection text into action items. HiveTracks records what you type and shows it back — no analysis layer.

    Is HiveLog AI actually cheaper than HiveTracks Forager?

    Slightly. €3/month vs $4.50/month at current EUR/USD rates. The bigger gap is feature value: HiveLog AI Starter includes 20 AI analyses; HiveTracks Forager includes zero.
