Communication software for condos, stratas, and managed buildings — built by people who lived the “lost notice / wrong channel” problem.
Community Hive started with one problem: communication. Living in a strata where important notices lived on a corkboard, maintenance issues went unreported for months, and voting happened at poorly attended meetings where decisions were made by whoever showed up.
Other tools were too expensive, too complicated, or built for American HOAs with features that did not match how Australian and international communities actually talk to residents. So we built communication-first software for real buildings.
Good communication changes how communities work. When residents feel informed, they participate more, complain less, and treat shared spaces with more care. When management has clear channels and documented records, disputes drop, response times improve, and trust builds naturally.
We believe every community — whether self-managed by volunteers or overseen by a property management company — deserves modern tools that make this possible without a steep learning curve or enterprise pricing.
We do not gate core features behind expensive tiers. Every community gets announcements, voting, bookings, document storage, and resident engagement tools from day one.
Council members are volunteers, not IT professionals. Our platform is designed to be picked up and used immediately, without training sessions or onboarding calls.
Each community is fully isolated. Residents only see their own community. Property managers see only their portfolio. There is no cross-community data leakage.
No hidden fees, no per-user charges that punish growth, and a genuine 30-day free trial with no credit card required. We earn your business by being useful, not by locking you in.
Community Hive is a small, focused team that has lived in the communities we are building for. We have sat on strata committees, dealt with unresponsive property managers, and watched good communities struggle because of bad communication infrastructure.
We are not a venture-backed startup chasing growth metrics. We are building a product we would want to use ourselves — and we think you will too.
