How hard is it to cancel Hive?
Hive scores 73/100 (grade B) for how clearly it documents cancellation in the US — a clearly documented cancellation policy. Cancellation is available via online (self-serve), email.
Monthly subscribers can cancel self-serve in-app via Settings > Billing and choosing not to renew at the end of the billing period; only the Billing Admin can do this. Annual subscribers must contact support through the in-app chat (blue question mark icon). A 30-day advance notice before the renewal date is required to avoid being charged for the next period. All subscription fees are non-refundable once paid, with no credits for partial periods.

Scope & fairness
This is the Documented-Policy tier: it measures how clearly the cancellation policy is published (cited, dated facts), not the behavioural experience of cancelling (Verified-Flow audit pending). Every company is scored on the same five dimensions with the same published weights — scores cannot be bought or removed. It is opinion grounded in disclosed facts, and not legal advice.
