Healthcare Solutions
Improving access to care
Modern medicine is only effective when care is accessible to those in need. Unfortunately, rural and remote communities around the globe often do not have timely access to critical medical resources. In the U.S., a vast, complex, and diverse for-profit healthcare system creates logistical challenges that can constrain local resources and create inefficiencies that drive up costs.
Spright enables healthcare access and minimizes supply challenges through drone delivery solutions tailored specifically for hospitals, clinics, and laboratories.

Turnkey System
Secure, compliant, simple, and user-friendly process
We offer customized drone delivery solutions that enable healthcare access and minimize supply challenges.
We know that implementing a drone program to reliably increase speed and efficiency requires a simple, user-friendly process to effectively accomplish on-demand deliveries. And we understand the critical importance of secure and compliant transport and delivery of supplies and samples to healthcare facilities. To address these non-negotiable needs, we have invested in the development of industry-leading solutions.
Every aspect, covered.
We tailor our drone delivery solutions specifically for the needs of:
- hospitals
- clinics
- laboratories
SprightFlight™ turnkey, app-based system
CONVENIENCE
- Pick-ups and deliveries are requested through a simple, app-based user interface
- Requests can be generated from multiple facilities
- Scheduled and on-demand service options available
OPERATIONAL INSIGHT
- Users have the ability to monitor flights en route while also having access to key data about the package, the contents, and any unexpected delays
- System will notify sender and recipient when package has arrived at the landing location and when it has been retrieved
DOCUMENTATION
- Chain-of-custody documentation is recorded and can be integrated into existing supply chain management systems for seamless implementation
- Flight data is also recorded for additional documentation related to environmental requirements such as temperature and duration
REGULATORY SOLVED
Spright leverages unique aviation experience while operating and managing critical aviation services in the U.S. With several aircraft engaged in the FAA Type Certification Production Certification program, Spright is building a unique fleet of aircraft to serve use cases across a variety of industries. Combining decades of operational and aviation experience and a Safety Management System (SMS), Spright brings a new level of professional drone services to its customers.
Landing Nest™
- Docking station and smart receiving system that utilizes temperature-controlled lockers to maintain chain-of-custody requirements and ensure the stability of sensitive packages and materials
- Integrated charging stations and covered drone storage compartments facilitate automated daily routines that maintain the drone’s on-demand capabilities
- Reduced direct human interaction with drone aircraft, using landing infrastructure, increases program safety
The needs of healthcare organizations are as diverse as the patients they serve.
In an effort to design custom delivery solutions that meet the varying operational demands of labs, hospitals and clinics around the world, we are partnering with industry-leading manufacturers to build a flexible fleet of drones that address a range of mission requirements with regard to payload, distance, and more.

69% of healthcare providers have delayed patient care due to the lack of supplies²
CURRENT HEALTHCARE CHALLENGES
Supply chain issues
There is a vital need to overcome supply chain challenges to keep medical supplies and specimens moving across healthcare networks. This includes clinical supplies (blood, vaccines, medications), lab supplies (tissue and blood samples, diagnostic reagents), and pharmacy supplies (vaccines, medicines).
Supply chain issues, high costs, and driver shortages are delaying movement of critical goods between facilities, limiting the efficiency of shared and centralized supply inventories and courier models.
RISING ABOVE SUPPLY CHALLENGES
Improve healthcare access and turnaround time through scalable, bidirectional drone solutions
At Spright, we promote healthcare access through end-to-end drone delivery solutions that minimize the day-to-day strategic supply challenges facing healthcare organizations
We apply innovative technology to increase transportation speed, reliability, and efficiency by avoiding road and air traffic hurdles that often slow the delivery of vital supplies and patient specimens.
We are at the forefront of next-generation logistics management to serve an expansive network of hospitals, clinics, and laboratories through the only bidirectional drone delivery service.
Business-to-business use cases
Supply chain challenges, worker shortages, and limited budgets have necessitated a more centralized supply model that demands innovative solutions to keep vital supplies moving across healthcare networks.
