What Bees360 does

Bees360 is an AI-powered property inspection and analytics platform founded in 2018 and headquartered in Houston, Texas. The company combines high-resolution drone aerial imagery with machine learning models to automate property risk assessment, damage detection, and claims evaluation for U.S. property and casualty insurance carriers. Its core technology stack ingests drone-captured image, video, and structured property data through computer vision and predictive analytics models trained on a proprietary library of over 100 million ultra-high-resolution aerial images. Supporting products include a Residential Underwriting solution, a Commercial Underwriting solution, a High Value Premium 4-point (White Glove) inspection tier, the BeesPilot mobile app for inspector workflow management, and the iBees app for homeowners. The company operates the nation's largest drone-enabled property inspector network, with more than 5,600 FAA Part 107 licensed pilots delivering inspection services nationwide.

Bees360 sells to insurance carriers through an enterprise field sales motion, generating revenue from a combination of subscription platform access and per-inspection fees, with native integrations into insurance technology platforms such as Verisk Analytics, CoreLogic, and Hover embedding its outputs into carrier underwriting and claims workflows. In April 2025, Eberl Claims Service acquired Bees360's drone-based property claims inspection services, folding them into a new e360 service line; Bees360 retained its underwriting services and continues to operate independently under its own brand, with Morgan Partners having served as its exclusive financial advisor on the transaction. The company is SOC 2 Type 2 and SOC 1 compliant, holds FAA Part 107 certifications across its pilot network, and has raised $9.8 million in an exempt securities offering completed in June 2023.

Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Emerging players

• Claim Genius: Claim Genius provides AI-powered vehicle and property damage assessment for insurance claims. Partial overlap with Bees360 in AI-on-imagery for property damage detection, though Claim Genius is more claims-focused.
• DroneDeploy: DroneDeploy is a drone data platform with broad industry coverage (construction, agriculture, inspections). It overlaps with Bees360 on drone workflow software and aerial imagery capture but is not focused on the insurance underwriting use case.
• Matterport: Matterport provides spatial data and digital twin capture for real estate and insurance workflows. Adjacent technology to Bees360 in property documentation and visualization, with overlapping insurance-carrier customers and similar 3D-capture economics.

Direct peers

• Hover: Hover converts smartphone photos into 3D property models and measurement data for insurance and construction. Bees360 is already integrated with Hover, and both compete for the same carrier-underwriting workflow slot.
• Loveland Innovations: Loveland Innovations offers drone-based property inspection software (IMGING) used by insurance carriers for claims and underwriting. Directly comparable platform business with similar AI analytics layered on drone-captured imagery.
• EagleView: EagleView is a leading provider of aerial imagery and property analytics for insurance, government, and construction. It is the most direct competitor to Bees360 in drone- and aerial-captured property inspection for insurance underwriting and claims.
• Betterview: Betterview combines drone imagery with AI-driven property risk analytics specifically for insurance carriers. Overlap with Bees360 is near-total in target customer, use case (property underwriting), and AI-on-aerial-imagery core technology.
• Cape Analytics: Cape Analytics applies AI to aerial and satellite imagery to generate property risk intelligence for insurance carriers. Same customer (insurers), same deliverable (property risk data) as Bees360, though primarily satellite-based rather than drone-based.

Broad incumbents

• CoreLogic: CoreLogic is a major property data and analytics provider for the insurance industry and a key Bees360 integration partner. As a broad incumbent it competes indirectly by bundling property intelligence offerings that may displace standalone drone inspection layers.
• Verisk: Verisk is the dominant insurance analytics and data platform that Bees360 integrates with (360Value). While not a drone-inspection competitor per se, Verisk's broader insurance data franchise sets the standard Bees360 plugs into and against which insurance carriers evaluate vendors.
