Shipped work is separated from work still under proof. Capabilities move to “live” only after their production endpoint, entitlement path, and customer surface pass the relevant verification. Bee Ignite is an active from-scratch foundation research programme, not a customer tier, and has no released checkpoint.
Live — Bee production platform
Done
The customer product, API, model ladder, billing controls, and governed evidence surfaces are running as one production platform.
Shipped
Six production tiers — Cell, Brood, Comb, Buzz, Hive, and Swarm — plus Enclave deployment contracts
Signed product facts, public capability evidence, post-quantum coverage register, and release-gated adapters
Now — complete Bee-family capability parity
In progress
Expose every foundation capability that Bee can support safely and reproducibly, then advertise it only after the running endpoint passes the corresponding probe.
In flight
Cell and Brood native multimodal routing, thinking controls, tool calls, and structured response support
Automatic and manual multimedia context compaction with visible token-recovery events
Workspace image/video creation controls and completed-job media URL preservation
Site-wide model, documentation, metadata, download, and Open Graph reconciliation from canonical facts
Exit criteria
Live vision, video, tool-calling, and structured-output probes archived for every tier that claims them
Capability register, model cards, API docs, llms.txt, and product facts regenerate from the same evidence
No customer-facing page contains a stale base model, context window, price, download, or feature claim
Now — Android production distribution
In progress
Ship one maintained Android client through Google Play while retaining a signed direct-download channel for controlled distribution.
In flight
Signed release APK and Android App Bundle produced from the same workspace WebView shell
Google Play listing, app-content declarations, reviewer access, and production release workflow
Foreground, background, closed-app, and notification-tap delivery matrix on physical Android hardware
Exit criteria
Google Play production review accepted and release available in approved countries
Website download manifest and store listing resolve to the current signed release
Real FCM delivery enabled only after the published subprocessor notice period expires
Now — shared team workspace boundary
In progress
Finish the tenant boundary so membership, invitations, role changes, projects, conversations, documents, encryption keys, and notifications follow the selected workspace consistently.
In flight
Team creation and membership administration
Workspace-aware projects, conversations, and document libraries
Invitation delivery, role-change controls, removal, and audit evidence
Exit criteria
Cross-tenant access tests pass for every shared resource
Invitations and role changes are delivered and auditable end to end
Plan entitlements and seat limits are enforced server-side
Next — governed automatic promotion
Next
Automatic adapter promotion remains off until a real candidate completes the evaluation, canary, rollback, and evidence-archive exercise.
Exit criteria
A real candidate completes held-out evaluation and a bounded production canary
Rollback is deliberately exercised and the recovery evidence is archived
Promotion can be enabled without bypassing human, cost, or safety gates
Next — signed desktop and iOS distribution
Next
The shared workspace code already powers thin desktop and mobile shells; public distribution waits on platform signing and notarisation credentials.
Exit criteria
Apple Developer signing, notarisation, App Store, and iOS distribution credentials provisioned
Windows code-signing certificate and Tauri updater signing secrets provisioned
Install, update, rollback, and native-notification matrices pass on supported platforms
Roadmap caveats
Status follows evidence, not calendar promises. The internal source of truth is docs/product/roadmap.md in the main repo — this page is its customer-facing distillation and is updated when a proof gate changes.
