Manna operates its drone delivery network from a central depot, deploying drones to pads throughout a city where they await orders and migrate dynamically based on predicted demand.
Bobby Healy says Manna has completed over 300,000 deliveries and aims for 2 million annualized deliveries by the end of 2026, with growth driven by 40 contracted bases in the United States.
Healy claims Manna already makes money on nearly every delivery, with locations contribution-positive from day one, and targets a marginal delivery cost of 20 cents.
Manna's drones have a lifetime of 75,000 deliveries with less than 0.5% maintenance downtime, enabling a low-cost airline operational model focused on efficiency.
Healy says drone delivery is a commodity product where the lowest cost base wins, and Manna's Net Promoter Score is in the high 80s to early 90s due to the service experience.
Manna plans to hire 400 new employees, moving manufacturing to the US and pivoting from a pure tech company to an operational airline, with about 300 jobs in Oklahoma.
