Gurugram-based Skye Air has officially commenced doorstep deliveries utilizing drones and artificial intelligence-powered robots, signaling a significant advancement in hyperlocal logistics. This development was announced at the recent AI Impact Summit.

Company Achievements Highlighted

Ankit Kumar, the Founder and CEO of Skye Air Mobility, discussed the company’s achievements in the realm of drone logistics during the summit. He revealed that Skye Air has successfully completed nearly 3.6 million drone deliveries over the past 2.5 years, resulting in a reduction of over one thousand tons of carbon emissions. Kumar emphasized that the company has formed international alliances aimed at enhancing its automated delivery ecosystem.

International Collaborations for Enhanced Efficiency

As part of their expansion strategy, Skye Air has partnered with Arrive AI, a US-based company listed on NASDAQ, to install smart mailbox systems named Arrive Point in residential areas and commercial complexes. This system facilitates automatic delivery of packages by drones.
