ORKID

Orkid is a tech startup that specializes in providing advanced Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL) solutions for automated drone logistics. This means they create drones that can take off and land vertically, which is particularly useful for delivering goods in congested or hard-to-reach areas. Their technology is designed to serve a variety of sectors including commercial, defense, and disaster relief operations.

Orkid's primary goal is to improve efficiency and reduce costs, traffic congestion, and CO2 emissions. They do this by offering drone delivery services that are faster and more cost-effective than traditional ground transportation. For instance, their drone can travel at five times the speed of ground transportation and reduce travel distance by half.

Orkid's business model is geared towards businesses that require delivery services. They offer two pricing models: a flat monthly fee per drone or an operating partnership model that provides access to their technology and remote assistance. They claim their solution is ten times better than alternatives, with delivery costs as low as $3 USD for a 20 km delivery.

The company operates in the logistics market, specifically in the drone delivery sector. They help businesses, both local and global, transport and deliver resources, including essential medical supplies, to their customers using their autonomous aerial drone technology. The process is simple: a customer places an order with a 30-minute delivery window, the order is received and fulfilled by the retailer, the Orkid drone launches from the warehouse, and the customer is notified of the incoming package with an estimated time of arrival.
