Autonomous inventory. No GPS required.

Your warehouse,
running itself.

Drones fly your aisles 24/7, scanning every QR code, tracking every pallet, and triggering auto-reorders before you run out of stock. Warehouse ops, handled.

Autonomous flight
Role-based access
Auto-reorder

Lost inventory costs warehouses billions every year. Manual counts are slow, dangerous, and wrong too often. DroneStock fixes that.

We built the drone Jake dreamed about — one that flies autonomously through your aisles, reads every QR code, tracks every pallet location, and fires a purchase order the instant stock drops below your threshold. No GPS. No Wi-Fi. No human pilot. Just inventory accuracy at a level manual processes can never reach.

Trained on synthetic + physical camera data

Core capabilities

Three systems. One loop.

Autonomous Navigation

No GPS. No beacons. The drone reads the warehouse itself using YOLOv8-Nano + PPO reinforcement learning. It learns from both synthetic simulation and your real floor. Moves around forklifts, finds new paths, never gets lost.

Optical flow + Vicon marker tracking
Dynamic obstacle avoidance
Lights-out operation — 24/7

Real-Time Inventory Scan

Every QR code, every pallet label, every slot. Scans up to 500+ locations per hour with 99.7%+ accuracy. The data goes straight to your manager dashboard — not a terminal they don't need to see.

QR code + barcode scanning
Location-tracked, time-stamped
Role-based manager view

Auto-Reorder Loop

Stock drops below threshold. Drone detects it. System fires a purchase order. You don't lift a finger. This is the part no competitor has built into their drone — until now.

Threshold-based reorder triggers
PO generation + supplier routing

The hardware

Built from the ground up.

ESP32S3 Companion Computer

Runs YOLOv8-Nano locally. No cloud. No latency. No data leaves the drone.

Optical Flow + Vicon Marker Tracking

Centimeter-level indoor positioning. No GPS. No beacons needed.

Betaflight Firmware + PPO RL

Neural flight policy trained in simulation, then fine-tuned on real camera data. Domain transfer learning.

3D Printed Micro Whoop Frame

PETG motor mounts, PLA sensor brackets, TPU dampened camera mount. Built in-house, built to last.

Per drone unit cost

The warehouse of 2027 doesn't have workers scanning barcodes on ladders. It runs itself.

DroneStock is built for the distribution centers that Amazon and Walmart are already piloting — and for every regional warehouse that can't afford to get left behind. The drone is built. The AI is trained. The auto-reorder loop is wired. We're ready to fly.
