Zipline is an American robotics and logistics company headquartered in South San Francisco, California, that designs, manufactures, and operates the world’s largest autonomous drone delivery system. Founded in 2014 by Keller Rinaudo Cliffton and co-founders, it began commercial operations in Rwanda in 2016 by delivering blood and medical supplies to remote hospitals.

The company has since expanded to multiple countries across Africa (including Ghana, Nigeria, Kenya, and Côte d’Ivoire), Japan, and the United States. Its zero-emission drones deliver healthcare products, vaccines, food, retail goods, and other items, with over 2 million commercial deliveries and more than 130 million autonomous miles flown. Zipline operates two platforms—one for long-range medical deliveries and another for precise, rapid home deliveries—and partners with governments, hospitals, and retailers such as Walmart to improve access, save lives, and reduce emissions.
