@dimavollo@tbpn@Uber Most people only notice us when they look up. We’re the quietest delivery on the market, and noise has always been a core design constraint https://t.co/1nNH4KZhKy
Zipline CEO @Keller predicts instant delivery will 10X from 5 billion to 50 billion deliveries a year in the US:
"We announced this new strategic partnership with Uber to get to a million deliveries a day. Important to realize that's still a very small percentage of the total instant deliveries happening in the US today."
"Dara and I both are confident that delivering in a way that's 10 times faster and less expensive is ultimately gonna lead to a big expansion of this overall market."
"If you were to just look at the customer ordering behavior that Zipline is observing right now across the cities where we operate, if you were to extend that to the rest of the US, there would be 10 times as many instant deliveries."
"So we expect to go from about 5 billion instant deliveries a year to about 50 billion instant deliveries a year in the US alone."
