Supercharge Hivemapper’s Growth with Open Road Season 2: Champions

After an amazing year, this new community-led initiative will champion the network’s next phase of expansion and impact.

Remember when we set out together to build the world’s freshest map? Remember the thrill you felt when you started contributing to the growth of a mapping network with immense potential?

Well, we’ve done it! With Open Road Season 1: Trailblazer, this incredible community ambitiously targeted 6 million unique road kilometers, covering 10% of global roads. We reached that milestone while collectively mapping a staggering 90 million total road kilometers in more than 90 countries — delivering the freshest data to a growing list of map customers.

Hivemapper accomplished this in just the past year, effectively bootstrapping a high-value mapping network and a thriving community of drivers and Map AI Trainers from scratch. Your enthusiasm and dedication have propelled the network forward at an unprecedented pace. We couldn’t be more grateful for your contributions, because the network couldn’t have come this far so quickly without you.

We all know that this is a pivotal moment. Now is the time to focus our combined energy on championing the next major leap for Hivemapper.

Open Road Season 2: Champions is a new community-led initiative to catapult the network’s operations into supercharged growth. As a Hivemapper champion, your efforts will help accelerate the number of map contributors and create a buzz that attracts map data customers to the network like bees to nectar.

The beauty of this community is that while we benefit from strength in numbers, each of you has immense influence to help shape what comes next. By tapping into your personal networks, you hold the key to rapidly scaling Hivemapper at this vital phase. Your participation matters. Your connections matter. Your impact matters.

Strengthen the Community

By recommending the Hivemapper Dashcam to friends and family, or just people who drive a ton, you can help expand the network’s mapping community and deepen its rich dataset.

HONEY bonuses will be rewarded as follows:

1 confirmed dashcam referral, receive 100 HONEY.
2–4 confirmed dashcam referrals, upgrade to receive 200 HONEY/referral.
5–8 confirmed dashcam referrals, upgrade to receive 300 HONEY/referral.
9+ confirmed dashcam referrals, upgrade to receive 500 HONEY/referral.

Example: If you produce 10 dashcam referrals, you’ll receive a total bonus of 5,000 HONEY (10*500 HONEY = 5,000 HONEY).

You’ll also receive a 5% cash commission on net sales attributed to you.
Each valid referral will generate a ticket for a weekly raffle for a variety of special prizes.
What’s more, the top 10 participants will receive a direct 20,000 HONEY bonus at the end of the season!

Exclusive Discord badges will be awarded to those who reach 10, 20, 50, and 100 referrals.
