This year’s DashForward showcased another line up of how we’re building @DoorDash for the future. TLDR: we added more retailers for delivery with the ability to do returns, richer software for merchants to compete and grow same store sales, an AI agent to access DoorDash off app, and drones to deliver even more and faster in the last mile. More details👇:
1/ We’re bringing more categories online and available for fast delivery. The average customer in the US can now get 500K+ retail items delivered under an hour. Thrilled to be adding new brands like @Macys, @Vans, @thenorthface, and @Anthropologie.
2/ Returns: if something doesn’t quite fit, pay a flat fee to get a hassle free return.
3/ Text DoorDash: if you want an even faster way to order, soon you can just text us.
4/ DashOS: whether you order through our app, a restaurant’s website, via AI agents, or dine in person, we’re stitching together all of these pieces to give restaurant owners the most comprehensive view of their guests.
5/ DoorDash Air: having earned our Part 135 certification a couple of months ago, we’re excited to unveil DoorDash Air, our purpose built drone for delivery. Launch partners include @ChipotleTweets and @Popeyes!

This is DoorDash Air.
As a pilot, I can tell you that you wouldn’t build a plane and then ask if it can carry cargo. So we built @DoorDash Air from the ground up, designed around what 13 years of deliveries have taught us: what people order, how much it weighs, and how far it has to travel.
Our drones are as silent as a passing car and early tests show that we’ve gotten flight delivery times in under ~5 mins on average, so you can get your @chipotletweets & @popeyes (our first partners) and local favorites right to you, fast. The first deliveries will be in NorCal.
We proved autonomy works on the ground. Now see how it works in the sky.
Today, we’re announcing major updates across DoorDash. Here’s what’s new:
🚁 DoorDash Air’s drone deliveries will first take flight with partners like @ChipotleTweets and @Popeyes
💬 Skip the app and just text to order
🛍️ Shop iconic brands like @Macys, @Anthropologie, and @thenorthface, plus easy returns right from your doorstep
🏪 DashOS helps restaurants get to know their guests and keep them coming back
💡 DashBuddy, an AI assistant built for Dashers
💼 Connect DoorDash to your favorite AI tools for easy office ordering
