Current obstacles

Pedestrian interferenceCrowded sidewalks and unpredictable behaviour remain challenging. Distinguishing intentional blocking from normal foot traffic is unsolved.
Regulatory hurdles per cityEach municipality has different rules. Coco spends months in regulatory discussions before launching.

Physics limits

Weather and terrainHeavy rain, flooding and ice can overwhelm lidar and camera sensors. Although Coco 2 handles snow with special tyres, extremely poor visibility still causes failures.
Battery and operating radiusCoco 2 is fully electric with a range of a few miles between charges. This limits delivery distance and requires frequent charging or battery swaps, capping how many consecutive trips are possible.

How it works

3 parts

Autonomy Stack

End-to-end autonomous navigation

Uses computer vision, lidar and AI to navigate sidewalks, roads and indoors without operators.

Distribution Logic

Multiple deliveries per trip

Independent compartments let one robot carry orders for different customers to multiple addresses.

Platform Integration

Seamless merchant and customer experience

Merchants see Coco as a delivery option; customers select it at checkout and track pickup/delivery.
