MyHives Begins Engineering Validation of BEEKON+ Safety Device, First Shipments Planned for Early 2027
The device connects in more than 170 countries and is being tested with organizations employing over 33,000 workers, MyHives said.
MyHives has begun engineering validation of BEEKON+, a credit-card-sized safety device that operates without a smartphone, with first shipments planned for early 2027.
Most personal safety tools require the person in danger to act, but a study of 298 assault survivors found that 70 percent experienced tonic immobility, the involuntary freezing response preventing deliberate movement under extreme threat.
Operating in more than 170 countries without a paired phone, BEEKON+ identifies critical moments and alerts the user's trusted circle, said founder and CEO/CTO Nelson T. Ajulo.
While trials of the BEEKON platform run with organizations employing over 33,000 people, Ajulo noted the new device is being built to escalate alerts automatically when no one is there to call.
Beyond personal safety, BEEKON+ includes built-in sensors monitoring air for toxic gases, carbon monoxide, and signs of fire risk, expanding the device's utility beyond emergency response.
