AI-powered photo organiser

The BeeStation’s built-in AI performs photo recognition without sending any data to the cloud. Accelerated by its built-in Neural Processing Unit (NPU), the BeeStation’s AI makes it easier than ever to find the people, pets, or other things you’re looking for. You can also explore a world map to rediscover photos from the places you’ve been. With these features and more, the BeeStation takes the work out of photo organisation.

Your digital workspace
Upload, organise, and access files from any desktop browser, phone, or tablet. View 100+ file formats, including image (even RAW files), video, Microsoft Office, compressed, text, and code files, right from your browser. You can organise them with folders, virtual labels, and stars, and search for them using keywords, file types, and more. Once your files and folders are on the BeeStation, they are readily accessible and shareable, no matter where you are. You also have the option to add password-protection or expiration dates to shared links to restrict who can open them. Never forget to bring important presentations or documents again!

Sync your progress across computers
With the desktop app, you can open files on the BeeStation straight from Windows File Explorer or macOS Finder and edit them with any desktop software, such as Microsoft Office or Adobe Creative Cloud. Whether you’re a designer, a photographer, or an office worker, you can open and edit BeeStation files from any desktop, expanding on your computer space while continuing your work. Low on laptop storage? The BeeStation’s 8TB capacity has you covered, as long as you have an Internet connection. And since changes are constantly synced to the BeeStation in real-time, switching between your work and personal computers is a breeze.

Keep your cloud and USB files in one place
Got files all over? The BeeStation can sync files from Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, as well as back up any connected USBs or other external drives. That way, if you ever lose access to a cloud account or can’t find a physical USB drive, you can rest easy knowing you’ve got a backup on your BeeStation.

Private spaces for each family member
Send an invitation link to any family member to give them their very own cloud space, completely separate from others to ensure privacy and control. This process is even easier for them; all they have to do is sign in with their Google or Apple account.

Layered data protection
Schedule regular backups of your BeeStation data to Synology C2 Storage or external drives to protect your device against natural disasters or device theft. Additional subscriptions of Synology C2 Storage, and purchase of external drives are required.

Please note: This device includes 8TB of non-expandable storage.
