⬡ For the record

The permanent home for your
building records

Hivebase stores As-Builts, O&M Manuals, warranties, and every other long-term facility record with context instead of file paths. The document you need is seconds away, and it stays that way for as long as the building stands.

Move beyond the folder structure

Folders make you know the answer before you can ask

A file server buries documents more than it loses them. Everything sits in one rigid hierarchy, and any question that doesn't match it turns into a hunt. Try asking a folder tree for the latest plumbing documents for the Technology Building. There's no path for that.

THE FILE SERVER WAY
📁 2019/ Don't know the year? Can't start.
📁 Technology Building/
📁 Chiller Replacement/ The project name from six years ago.
📁 Mechanical/ Or was it filed under Plumbing?
📄 M-401_rev3_FINAL(2).pdf
It sits five levels deep, named by whoever filed it, and you can only open it from a desk on the office network.

You never told it a year or a project name, and the tech on the roof can open the same link from their phone.
Why facilities teams switch

The source of truth for every building you operate

SPEC 01 — SEARCH

Search inside every PDF

Hivebase reads every page of every document with AI-augmented OCR, even the old scans. One search covers the contents of the entire archive and shows results as you type.

SPEC 02 — METADATA

Track what matters to you

Custom fields on every project and document: dates, location, type of work, DSA, and anything else your team cares about. Filter on any combination and get the cross-cutting views a folder tree cannot give you.

SPEC 03 — COLLECTIONS

Collections cut across projects

Gather any slice of the archive into a virtual folder. All plumbing documents from 2025, or a safety bundle holding every exit map, machinery shutoff, and procedure for a building.

SPEC 04 — MAP

See your buildings on a map

Every location and building sits on an interactive map. Click a campus, drill into a building, and land on its projects and records.

SPEC 05 — SHARING

Share without handing over the keys

The tech on the roof needs the damper drawing, not VPN access to the P: drive. Send an expiring link that opens on a phone in one tap, scoped to just that document or folder.

SPEC 06 — QR CODES

QR codes where the work happens

Print a QR code for a building's safety and operations manuals and post it in the mechanical room. Anyone with a phone is two taps from the right document, anytime.

Serious about security

Protection, specified

A building's records deserve better than a wide-open share drive. Hivebase encrypts everything and puts every user behind role-based permissions, with an audit log recording each change.

AES-256 Encrypted at rest · TLS 1.2+ in transit
MFA Two-factor authentication · available for every account
RBAC Role-based access · per project, per person
AUDIT Audit logging · who did what, and when

Put your buildings on the record

We'll show you a real archive in about 20 minutes, not a slide deck.
