Autonomous delivery robots for food and retail

About Serve Robotics

Serve Robotics is changing the delivery industry with its self-driving robots that provide sustainable and efficient delivery solutions. Instead of using traditional vehicles, these lightweight, autonomous robots deliver small items like food and retail products, reducing carbon emissions and traffic congestion. The company operates on a delivery-as-a-service (DaaS) model, allowing businesses in the food and retail sectors to subscribe and pay based on their delivery needs. Serve Robotics aims to lead in the autonomous delivery market by offering eco-friendly solutions that enhance customer experience.
