Beentry now works in ChatGPT and Claude

By: Martin Janicek·October 13, 2026·6 min read

Your Beentry records can now follow you to the AI you already use. Connect Beentry to ChatGPT or Claude and ask in plain language about your hives, inspections, harvests and finances. The assistant answers from your actual records, not from general advice. And if you allow it, it logs an inspection or a task for you.

Why we built it

Beentry has its own AI advisor inside the app, and it stays. The connector does something different: it brings your beekeeping data into the assistant where you already do everything else.

  • By voice, on the way home. In the ChatGPT or Claude mobile app you can just say it: log today's inspection. No tapping, straight from the drive home.
  • Your own analyses and tables. Ask for a yield table per apiary, a season comparison or a feeding cost overview. The AI works with your real numbers.
  • Together with everything else. Your bees live in the same chat where you plan your weekend or write e-mails. Nothing to switch between.

What the AI can do with Beentry

When connecting, you choose whether the AI may only read your data, or also write to it.

Read

  • Apiaries and hives: hive type, frame size, boxes, equipment
  • Inspections with tags: treatment, feeding, queen, brood, health
  • Queens and their history
  • Tasks, including per-hive tasks
  • Harvests: honey with type and moisture, wax, propolis, pollen, venom
  • Finances: income, expenses and the yearly balance
  • Reported disease outbreaks near your apiaries (Czech Republic and Slovakia)
  • Stings, apiary notes, chat history with the AI advisor, subscription status

Write (only with your permission)

  • Inspections: create, edit or delete
  • Tasks, including marking them done
  • Hives, several at once if you like
  • Apiaries, in the Czech Republic matched to LPIS by registration number
  • Queens
  • Harvests of honey and other products

Try asking

A few examples you can try right away once Beentry is connected:

  • “Which hives haven't had their autumn treatment yet this year?”
  • “How much honey did I harvest this year compared to last year, and which apiary gave the most?”
  • “Log this: today I inspected hives 1 to 5 at the Garden, brood everywhere, saw the queen in hive 3.”
  • “Plan my winterizing tasks and put them into Beentry.”
  • “Make me a table of feeding costs per apiary for the last three years.”

Ask in English, German, Czech or any other language, the AI replies in the language you write in. Because it sees the context, it also handles questions like “Which hives haven't I inspected for a long time?”.

How to connect Beentry to Claude

In Claude you add Beentry as a custom connector:

  1. On claude.ai go to Settings and open Connectors. Click Add custom connector.
  2. Enter Beentry as the name and https://mcp.beentry.com as the address. Confirm with Add.
  3. Click Connect, sign in with your Beentry account and choose whether the AI may only read, or also write. Done.

Custom connectors work in every Claude plan, including Free (Free allows one custom connector). Once connected on the web, Beentry also works in the Claude desktop and mobile apps.

Security and privacy

  • The AI sees only your data. After signing in, the AI has access only to the records of your own account. Nothing else in Beentry.
  • You choose the scope. You sign in with your Beentry account (e-mail and password, Google, Facebook or Apple) and on the consent screen you choose whether the AI may only read, or also write. The AI never sees your password, sign-in uses the OAuth 2.1 standard.
  • Where your answers are processed. The data you ask about in a conversation is processed by the AI provider (OpenAI or Anthropic) under its own terms. You can revoke access at any time in the settings of Claude or ChatGPT.
  • Writing always with confirmation. Before writing anything, the AI confirms the details with you. Deleted records can be restored on request by Beentry support.
