The physical internet starts here.
IONA builds autonomous networks that move goods the way the internet moves information - instantly, affordably, and everywhere. We provide the full technology stack so logistics operators can deliver what was previously undeliverable.
Trusted by operators, agencies, and partners across Europe
One stack.
Full autonomy.
Your brand.
IONA provides everything a logistics operator needs to launch autonomous delivery — without building an aviation organisation from scratch. Aircraft, ground infrastructure, operations software, and regulatory compliance. Fully integrated. Fully white-label. The operator owns the service, the data, and the customer relationship. IONA is the infrastructure layer.
Up to 20 parcels to 200 km, on a single autonomous flight.
Information became instant. Energy became distributed. Goods are next.
The internet made information programmable - any device to any device, anywhere.
Solar and batteries did the same for energy.
Physical goods are still trapped in schedules, routes, and vehicles that favour density over access.
of the world's population lives in areas where a simple delivery costs 3 to 10 times more than in urban centres.
IONA is building the infrastructure that changes this. Autonomous networks that connect people, businesses, and communities to the goods they need - reliably, affordably, and wherever they are.
Minutes, not hours.
IONA turns inaccessible routes into routine operations.
Long-range autonomous flight that plugs directly into logistics networks – delivering what used to take hours in minutes.
Example Scenarios:
Island clinic to mainland hospital
4–8 hours by ferry → 6 min with IONA.
Rural pharmacy resupply
Next-day van, weather permitting → 22 minutes, any day with IONA.
Industrial spare part
45-minute van dispatch → 12 minutes, on demand with IONA.

Engineered for operations, not demonstrations.
IONA's technology stack is built for the conditions operators face daily - not for controlled environments.
Aircraft that launch from unprepared sites.
A fleet management platform that plans, permissions, flies, supervises, and audits every mission.
A compliance framework co-developed with the people who wrote the EU regulations.
From anywhere
Vertical take-off from compact, constrained, or unprepared sites. No runway. No fixed infrastructure.
Long-range, energy-efficient
Cruise flight that turns inaccessible routes into routine operations.
Centimetre-precision arrival
Reliable landing in variable conditions, at hubs or on demand.
Autonomous cargo exchange
Standardised pick-up and drop-off workflows. No operator needed at the destination.
Start where the problem is sharpest. Scale everywhere.
IONA begins with the routes that traditional logistics cannot serve profitably – then expands into express, industrial, and mainstream delivery as the network grows.
Healthcare logistics
Move blood samples, medications, and critical supplies between hospitals, labs, and island clinics in minutes. Replace multi-hour ferry crossings and emergency charters with autonomous flights at a fraction of the cost.
Rural and remote communities
Serve the 30% of the population that pays the most and waits the longest. Turn structurally unprofitable routes into viable operations - without the van, the driver, or the road.
Express & ecommerce
Same-day rural delivery becomes possible. Multi-drop capability on a single flight. Complements existing van fleets for premium and time-critical shipments.
Industrial & manufacturing
Critical spare parts on demand. Reduce production downtime from hours to minutes. Just-in-time supply chains that do not depend on road networks.
Maritime and offshore
Port-to-vessel. Ship-to-shore. Offshore platforms and wind farms. Replace launch boat and helicopter runs with autonomous delivery at a fraction of the cost and time.
