Nyuki Lens

Nyuki Lens is an AI-powered hive inspection tool for smallholder beekeepers in Kenya. Over 2,000 beekeepers in Bomet, Kericho, Narok, Kisii, and Nyamira counties depend on honey for income, but most have no access to a trained apiary inspector. Problems like wax moths inside hive walls, ants walking all over the frames, and overgrown apiaries go unnoticed until the harvest is lost. A beekeeper photographs what they see, selects the photo type (frame, apiary, bee, or pest) and language (English or Swahili), and gets a short diagnosis and one action in seconds. The app uses Meta SAM 3.1 to segment the image and Muse Spark 1.1 to generate the diagnosis. Results are stored in SQLite and can be retrieved later for audit.
