How it works

One Drophud point for every 4–5 buildings

Think of Tashkent’s shared water kiosks: common, close, for everyone. Drones come and go; the box stays as infrastructure.

  1. 01

    Order

    A restaurant or pharmacy packs the order into a standard container (up to 4 kg) and loads it onto the drone at the base.

  2. 02

    Flight

    The hexacopter flies at 30 m within a 3–5 km radius and lands on the box using a visual marker, to ±2 cm.

  3. 03

    Box

    The hatch opens and the parcel is sorted into one of 12 insulated cells. The drone charges meanwhile — airborne again in 90 seconds.

  4. 04

    Pickup

    You open the cell with a QR code, NFC or a 6-digit code. Any time, without waiting for a courier.

Roadmap

Start with the box, scale with the drone

Uzbekistan’s 2026 state programme schedules the liberalisation of civil drones. We don’t wait for permission — we get ready for it.

  1. Phase 1

    2027

    First courtyards

    Legal today: courier + box. 30 boxes, 20+ partner pharmacies and kitchens. 5 drones in two models — Hexa (4 kg) and Quad Lite (1.5 kg) — in a test zone.

    Now

  2. Phase 2

    2028

    Drones enter service

    A pilot zone agreed with the state, a full safety log for the regulator. 110 boxes, 11 drones. Local assembly brings unit cost down.

  3. Phase 3

    2029

    City scale

    240 boxes and 24 drones in green zones. Octo Cargo (10 kg) for box-to-box supply and retail loads.

  4. Phase 4

    2029+

    The region

    Almaty, Bishkek, Baku — the same housing, the same problem.

For investors

Pre-seed round: the first Drophud network in Tashkent courtyards

A working 3D model, a physics flight simulator, parametric CAD and a full bill of materials are ready. Ask for the deck, a simulator demo and the financial model.
