"Robomart exists to deliver autonomy in a way that finally makes on‑demand delivery work economically,"
"With RM5, retailers get a profitable channel for on-demand delivery and consumers get everyday essentials delivered at affordable prices. That's the future we're building-an autonomous Instacart that's actually profitable."
"no markups, no service fees, no tips."
Los Angeles-based Robomart unveiled the RM5, a level-four autonomous vehicle the size of a shuttle bus with no space for a human driver and up to 500 pounds of payload. The vehicle contains 10 individual lockers that enable multiple customer deliveries in a single run. Robomart plans an app where customers can browse options from retailers, restaurants, and grocery stores and order items for delivery. Customers will pay a flat $3 delivery fee per order with no markups, service fees, or tips. The RM5 aims to provide a profitable on-demand channel for retailers and affordable delivery for consumers.
