    Its only a matter of time before robot women will be dropping from the sky and into my bed.

      I like how you think — hopefully with some AI built in that makes them pleasers!

      Look at mark robers channel he goes more in depth on it its actually pretty good

      Autonomous drones don’t need human air traffic controllers. It’s amazing how clueless you are.

    And yet I still can’t figure out how to get internet.

      They are used to carry blood and life saving medicine to hospitals and people in rural areas in several countries. Imagine you plink down the one carrying something lifesaving. Well done

    I think it a mess it’s only going to interfere with other more important air operations just because you can doesn’t mean you should

    • Jerson

      March 18, 2023 at 8:16 pm

      Bruh search up the comapny they use glider drones to give important stuff to rual areas and also im pretty sure that a small robot won’t interfere with that

    • Matic

      March 18, 2023 at 9:34 pm

      They literally save hundreds of lives each year with those

    • uday kadam

      March 19, 2023 at 12:47 pm

      Funny, they have already saved thousands of lives with this.

    • Tom Mitchell

      March 19, 2023 at 2:31 pm

      How do you define “more important air operations”? Hauling Trumpers down to FL so they can stage a riot? No thanks, I’d rather drones take precedence.

    • Tyler Durden

      March 20, 2023 at 12:08 pm

      What other air operations?

      Except planes flying at 36 000 ft.

  8. Kevin King

    March 17, 2023 at 9:05 pm

    That means no tips but expensive fees

    • Jerson

      March 18, 2023 at 8:15 pm

      Don’t think so because they don’t need to pay people to bring it

    • DC Football

      March 19, 2023 at 8:34 pm

      ​@Jerson and the energy costs pennies

    OMG, I was just thinking about creating a company like this…

    How tf does thing fly. Its got no vertical propulsion wtf

    Edit:

    I just say it has some wierd fukin mothership thingy. Whats the actual point of this. No food for u if it rains. I just dont see how they are gonna stop people vandlising them

    • Emir K

      March 18, 2023 at 5:28 pm

      They already carry medications and blood to hospitals over huge distances rain or shine.

    • Лол Кеков

      March 18, 2023 at 6:33 pm

      Wdym how, laws exist

    • Jorge Gonzalez

      March 19, 2023 at 3:31 am

      The drone carriers a box that goes down and delivers the package but I think what you saw was just the box that goes down not the drone its self so you might be confused

    • Vrsce01

      March 19, 2023 at 5:12 am

      They’ve actually been saving multiple lives and can survive harshest weather conditions.

    • Velpixel

      March 19, 2023 at 9:57 am

      That sounds like an American problem because this works literally perfectly in the other countries where Zipline can be located.????

    • uday kadam

      March 19, 2023 at 12:48 pm

      It works even in the extreme rainy days.
      Yeah but it’s easier to comment than research

    • Tom Mitchell

      March 19, 2023 at 2:32 pm

      They work well in the rain, go watch Mark Rober’s video for proof. Stop being proud of being ignorant.

    That would take you a decade or more to figure out

    • DrizzleNova

      March 20, 2023 at 12:46 pm

      They use it right now in several countries.. mostly for life saving medical supplies, but also for delivery of random goods.. do you research before denying lol

    • ihsan Pro

      March 20, 2023 at 1:23 pm

      @DrizzleNova actually my message was response to someone else brilliant idea ???? and zipline I know already operating after almost an decad, they figure it out eventually . So yeh my original notion still applies

    • Jared Bickford

      March 20, 2023 at 8:14 pm

      These work and like years ago….

    • DrizzleNova

      March 20, 2023 at 8:23 pm

      @Jared Bickford no literally.. those have been a thing for years

    • ihsan Pro

      March 20, 2023 at 9:36 pm

      yeh it was founded in 2011 and they launched MVP in late 2016. You guys either never developed a product or have no idea what it takes to develop a complete product. It just didn’t came to existence over night or a year

The VC Backing the American Dream with Manan Mehta, Unshackled Ventures

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground.

Immigrant founders have built some of the world’s most valuable companies, but many still face barriers that make it harder to get a startup off the ground. Visa restrictions, limited access to friends-and-family capital, shallow networks, and a venture industry built around pattern matching can keep promising founders from getting funded before they have a chance to prove themselves.

In this episode of Build Mode () , host Isabelle Johannesen sits down with Manan Mehta, co-founder and managing partner of Unshackled Ventures, () to talk about why he believes immigrant founders represent one of venture capital’s biggest overlooked opportunities. Manan breaks down how Unshackled built an investment model designed to help founders navigate immigration barriers, why traditional VC pattern matching causes investors to miss potential outliers, and how his team evaluates founders at day zero—often before they have a product, customers, or traction. He also explains why the structural gaps that make some founders harder to fund may be exactly where investors should be looking for outsized returns.

They get into:

The four structural barriers immigrant founders face when starting companies in the U.S.

How Unshackled Ventures helps founders navigate visas while building their startups

Why VC’s reliance on pattern matching can cause investors to miss outlier founders

How Manan evaluates founders before they have a product, customers, or traction

The IQ, AQ, EQ, and SQ framework Unshackled uses to evaluate founder potential

Why resilience, lived experience, and a founder’s relationship to the problem can matter more than a polished pitch

Why structural gaps can create some of the biggest opportunities for investors

How founders without traditional networks can find alternative paths to early capital

Why founders should understand their personal “why” instead of trying to fit the traditional VC mold
