The company has launched DoorDash Air, an in-house drone delivery programme built by DoorDash Labs, the same robotics and autonomy team behind its Dot delivery robot.
DoorDash has obtained Part 135 air carrier certification from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, allowing it to operate commercial drone delivery.
DoorDash Air will need to prove itself city by city, and the company has not yet turned drone delivery into a mass-market service.
Food delivery is becoming more automated, and DoorDash wants to make sure it is not only a marketplace for human couriers.
