BeeSTAR started with a question from Ray’s family member in South Korea: "Can I buy pure Australian honey?"
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Ray and Simon, both working on unmanned technology, discovered the widespread issue of fake honey. This led to a bigger realization—beekeepers lacked the data needed to manage hive health, optimize pollination, and ensure sustainability.
Determined to solve this, we founded LB Agtech to bring technology-driven transparency to beekeeping. Through years of research and development, we built BeeSTAR, an AI-powered platform providing real-time hive monitoring and predictive insights.
With proven success, BeeSTARX was launched to help commercial beekeepers turn innovation into business growth and profitability.
