Send us Fan MailIn this episode of WTR Small‑Cap Spotlight, Douglas Hineline, Tech Lead and Senior Platform Engineer at Arrive AI (NASDAQ: ARAI), joins WTR’s Tim Gerdeman and James Kisner to discuss how Arrive AI is building the infrastructure layer for autonomous last‑mile delivery. Hineline breaks down how Arrive Points—the company’s smart lockers and mini cross‑docks—act as secure exchange hubs linking drones, ground robots, couriers, retailers, and consumers. The conversation explores Arrive AI’s early traction in healthcare and campus logistics, why advances in AI, edge compute, robotics, and drone regulation are accelerating market readiness, and how the company aims to “own the last inch of the last mile” through a broader Network‑as‑a‑Service platform.
