Events

• 2026-10-02 - Award - BeeX wins DIU and U.S. Navy mine-countermeasures prize

  The drones reacquired and neutralized bottom and volume mine threats from a safe standoff distance. Evaluations included high-latency, low-bandwidth over-the-horizon communications and untethered reacquisition of moored mines. The platforms operated independently of a dedicated mine-countermeasures vessel.

• 2026-06-29 - Funding - BeeX raises $7.7M Series A for autonomous underwater drones

  The round supports expansion of autonomous underwater drone fleets and operations across APAC and Europe. BeeX targets marine inspection and survey workflows with autonomous underwater systems. Monk's Hill Ventures led the Series A.

• 2026-04-27 - Partnership - Water Linked Sonar 3D-15 integrated into BeeX underwater drone autonomy stack

  Sonar 3D-15 streams real-time three-dimensional data into BeeX's onboard autonomy system through the Water Linked API. BeeX uses the data for object detection, tracking and scene understanding around complex subsea structures. The integration supports autonomous inspection in turbid water and reduces repeat deployments for anomaly follow-up.

• 2022-09-26 - Deployment - A.IKANBILIS completes autonomous Nordsee One inspection

  The BeeX vehicle inspected monopile foundations, cathodic-protection anodes and cable-protection systems without a human in the loop. Its autonomy engine adapted the mission to currents, visibility and other changing underwater conditions. Geo-referenced condition reports and 3D inspection data were delivered through an integrated cloud platform in near real time.
