🔎 Unclaimed — this is our research, not their listing. Hive has not submitted anything to us, has not seen or approved this page, and is not a partner of ours. There is no vendor description here, and we have not written one on their behalf. Everything below comes from our own dossier — the same one behind the Honest Software Atlas. Reader reviews are moderated for spam only; critical ones get published too.

What we found — independently

Researched by AIBM, not supplied by the vendor. The vendor has not been involved in this page at all.

Our pricing check · 2026Free tier (10 members); Starter about $5/user/mo annual ($7 monthly); Teams ~$12/user/mo annual ($18 monthly); Enterprise custom.
What will cost you money if you skim itThe seat price is honest bait, the add-on grid is the business model: switch on three add-ons and your $12 seat becomes $27 — a la carte flexibility that punishes teams who need the full toolkit.

Cost-trap flags — each with its evidence

🪑 Per-seat pricing — Cost scales with every user you add
“(2026) Free tier (10 members); Starter about $5/user/mo annual ($7 monthly); Teams ~$12/user/mo annual ($18 monthly); Enterprise custom.”
🧩 Add-ons extra — Key features are paid add-ons on top of the plan
“Watch the add-ons: proofing, timesheets, goals, resourcing, analytics and automations each run ~+$5/user/mo.”
🆓 Free tier — A genuinely free plan or version exists
“(2026) Free tier (10 members); Starter about $5/user/mo annual ($7 monthly); Teams ~$12/user/mo annual ($18 monthly); Enterprise custom.”

Genuinely good for

project teams that want flexible PM (Gantt, Kanban, forms, chat) and only pay for the modules they actually use

Skip it if

you need most of the add-ons anyway (all-inclusive tools price better), or your org demands one standardized suite

The honest comparisonAsana or ClickUp — the PM heavyweights — ClickUp bundles more per dollar, Asana wins polish; Hive wins if your module list is genuinely short

Work at Hive? This page is yours the moment you claim it.

Write your own description and it appears at the top of this page, in your words, free — no fee during beta and no strings. What does not change: our research stays exactly where it is, underneath, and you cannot edit it. That is the point of the page. Two honest caveats before you bother: our audience is still modest and growing, and the outbound link is nofollow ugc, so this is not an SEO play.

We have pre-filled the name, site and category we already have on file, so the only thing left to write is the description. A claimed page also drops the noindex we keep on research-only pages.
