Formula at 2 a.m., a forgotten birthday gift, a school-required paperback — these are the errands drone delivery removes from a parent's day entirely.
Corporate drone programs restrict aerial delivery to their own retail networks. SkyMesh Local is the universal open network: every industry, every merchant, one shared fleet of certified regional operators flying 15-minute neighborhood routes.
Amazon Prime Air, Walmart with Wing, and Zipline partner networks fly inventory from their own warehouses and contracted partners. If your store is not in that ecosystem, aerial delivery simply is not offered to your customers.
Any licensed regional UAS operator supplies the aircraft and any drone-eligible merchant supplies the goods — auto parts counters, hardware stores, pharmacies, grocers, restaurants, and specialty shops all dispatch on the same open network.
Flat monthly software pricing plus a $2.00 routing fee per completed dispatch. No per-unit marketplace commission, no forced private-label competition against your own shelf.
Every SkyMesh Local dispatch is screened against a 5.0 lb payload ceiling and standard cargo pod dimensions before it can be ordered, so only genuinely flyable inventory reaches the storefront.
Connect a POS feed or upload a spreadsheet; the eligibility engine flags weight and dimension violations automatically.
Staff confirm packaging type and payload balance, then the order enters the airspace deconfliction queue.
A certified operator flies to the customer's mapped landing pad with live telemetry, wind checks, and OTP proof of delivery.
