Zipline has unveiled a new platform that provides quiet, fast and precise autonomous delivery directly to homes in cities and suburbs.<\/p>\n
The company\u2019s next generation home delivery technology, Platform 2 (P2), is practically silent and is expected to deliver up to 7 times as fast as traditional automobile delivery, completing 10-mile deliveries in about 10 minutes.<\/p>\n
Co-founder and CEO of Zipline, Keller Rinaudo Cliffton, said over the last decade, global demand for instant delivery has skyrocketed, but the technology being used is obsolete.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re still using the same 3,000-pound, gas combustion vehicles, driven by humans, to make billions of deliveries that usually weigh less than 5 pounds. It\u2019s slow, it\u2019s expensive, and it\u2019s terrible for the planet,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Mr. Cliffton said Zipline\u2019s new service is changing that and will finally make deliveries work for customers and around their schedule.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have built the closest thing to teleportation ever created \u2013 a smooth, ultrafast, convenient, and truly magical autonomous logistics system that serves all people equally, wherever they are,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Businesses can offer Zipline\u2019s home delivery service in a variety of ways, including native integrations into apps and websites, white labeled opportunities, and by joining Zipline\u2019s marketplace.<\/p>\n
Customers can make on-demand orders, or schedule the exact time they\u2019d like their package to arrive, down to the second.
Each P2 Zip has a 10-mile service radius while carrying a 6-8 pound payload for out-and-back deliveries from a single dock.<\/p>\n
Alternatively, it can also fly up to 24 miles one way from dock to dock, charging at each dock before picking up its next delivery.<\/p>\n
Because Zips can move from dock to dock, Zipline can dynamically respond to peak order times \u2013 ensuring there\u2019s enough delivery capacity for an urgent prescription delivery or a busy Friday pizza night or weekday lunch rush.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe future of delivery is faster, more sustainable and creates broader access, all of which provides improved value for our customers,\u201d said Jonathan Neman, Co-Founder and CEO of Sweetgreen, American fast casual restaurant chain, and one of the few first customers to deploy Zipline\u2019s new platform.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe couldn\u2019t be more excited to work with Zipline to complement our delivery strategy. Zipline\u2019s sustainable technology and ability to reach customers quickly, with a great delivery experience, will help us give our customers what they want, when they want it,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
Zipline plans to conduct high-volume flight tests this year involving more than 10,000 test flights using about 100 aircraft. The first customer deployment of P2 will follow shortly after that.<\/p>\n
Zipline\u2019s record for safety has been proven over the past seven years of operations and over more than 500,000 commercial flights.<\/p>\n
Its long-range platform, P1, has autonomously flown 40 million miles worth of commercial deliveries through all kinds of weather without a safety incident \u2013 the vast majority of which were flights flown beyond visual line of sight.<\/p>\n
Zipline has received Part 135 certification, is authorized to complete the longest-range, on-demand commercial drone flights in America, and recently received FAA approval to enable its onboard autonomous detect and avoid system.<\/p>\n
