It’s another exciting day here at Starship: Our robots have finished breaking records 10 million kilometers driven!
To show the hard work our busy bots have achieved, 10 million kilometers is equivalent to driving to the moon and back more than 12 times. No other independent project has achieved this, and we are very proud that our team has been able to achieve this. This incredible range is longer than any other company in the industry, and six times the 1 million kilometers range recently announced by the world’s leading self-driving car manufacturers, That’s it and A cruise.
But what really separates us is the level of autonomy our robots have achieved. We recently reviewed the data and were surprised to find that one of our robots completed 24 consecutive deliveries of food to customers, 100% autonomously over a 16-hour period, with no human intervention or supervision.
Today, our robots have become a part of everyday life for many people. Based on the success of delivering products from hundreds of stores through our Starship software, we now offer ‘Delivery as a service’ (DaaS) to our partners around the world who want to make their deliveries more sustainable, affordable and fun. We are seeing interest in using our technology because last mile shipping is currently inefficient and expensive. We have proven that our technology has the potential to revolutionize last-mile delivery, which is currently one of the most inefficient and expensive forms of delivery.
This milestone represents a significant achievement and demonstrates that our work is at the forefront of the independent supply chain industry. Recently, we shared that our robots have made more than four million deliveries, traversing nearly 140,000 routes per day. With over 2,000 robots orbiting around the world, we’re about to cross 20 million miles!
