About Hive
Overview
Hive is an AI-powered project management and work management platform that brings projects, tasks, workflows, collaboration, reporting, CRM, and finance into one connected workspace. It helps teams plan work, automate repetitive processes, track progress, and keep projects moving.
Founded in 2015 and headquartered in New York City, Hive was built to replace fragmented work tools with a single place where the plan, the people, and the context live together. The company launched Buzz AI, an in-workspace assistant, in 2025.
Key Benefits
- Buzz AI plans, assigns, follows up, and reports on work so teams spend less time managing tasks
- Project views adapt to any workflow, including Kanban, Gantt, calendar, table, list, portfolio, and summary
- Time management tracks how teams spend hours and surfaces where projects need attention
- Workflows and automations move work between people and connected tools automatically
- Collaboration happens in context with actions, chat, notes, and built-in proofing
- Over 1,000 integrations bring external tools and data into one centralized dashboard
How It Works
Teams organize projects and tasks into flexible views, then collaborate across actions, chat, notes, and proofing so feedback stays attached to the work. Workflows automate hand-offs between people and tools, while Buzz AI summarizes data, builds projects from a described outcome, and drafts replies. Time tracking and dashboards help teams see where effort goes and which work is on track, at risk, or blocked.
Use Cases
- Marketers run campaign launches and intakes with forms, automation, and AI proofing
- PMOs visualize portfolios, status, and milestones across projects in one grid
- Agencies manage client work, approvals, and external user permissions in a shared workspace
- Education and non-profit teams coordinate complex work across people and departments
- Sales and customer success teams track accounts, deals, and renewals alongside the work
- Enterprise teams get security controls, SSO, and dedicated support for large rollouts
