Peachtree Corners Launches Secure Automated Delivery with Arrive AI Partnership

PEACHTREE CORNERS, GA and INDIANAPOLIS, IN / ACCESS Newswire / June 4, 2025 / Peachtree Corners - one of the United States' first smart city environments powered by real-world connected infrastructure and 5G - today announced a groundbreaking partnership with Arrive AI (NASDAQ: ARAI). Arrive AI, a pioneering autonomous delivery network, is joining the city's Curiosity Lab ecosystem with the launch of its autonomous last mile (ALM) solution, anchored by smart mailboxes known as Arrive Points™. This collaboration brings the patented AI-powered devices to the city's Innovation Center, showcasing the next generation of secure, hands-free, climate-assisted package delivery.

Arrive AI's delivery unit offers a seamless, 24/7 solution within Curiosity Lab's ecosystem, capable of tracking, verifying and dispensing packages. Crucially, Arrive Points are compatible with autonomous delivery solutions such as drones and ground robots, paving the way for fully automated deliveries. The units also feature integrated video monitoring and advanced heating and cooling capabilities, compensating for rapid temperature shifts of up to 20 degrees Fahrenheit in minutes to keep package contents safe.

"As a smart city, we have been able to demo, test and deploy multiple delivery solutions since our inception in 2019, and we are thrilled to advance these efforts with Arrive AI," said City Manager of Peachtree Corners, Brian Johnson. "Autonomous delivery can truly enhance more than convenience; it represents the kind of forward-thinking infrastructure we envisioned when we created Curiosity Lab. By piloting Arrive Points here first, we're giving businesses and residents a real-world look at how secure, climate-controlled, last-mile logistics can improve daily life."

The Arrive Points will be connected by T-Mobile's award-winning 5G network, bringing low latency, high-speed connectivity and high bandwidth to delivery operations and package-tracking performance. This connectivity will give users a smoother delivery experience, while enabling Arrive AI to enhance its real-time delivery capabilities and monitor the unit's operational health and safety data remotely.

"The launch of Arrive Points at Curiosity Lab is a milestone for both Arrive AI and for the future of last-mile logistics," said Arrive AI CEO Dan O'Toole. "By combining our AI-driven, temperature-controlled smart mailbox with Peachtree Corners' 5G backbone, we can demonstrate in real-world conditions that secure, friction-free delivery is possible anytime, anywhere - whether the courier is a drone, a robot or a traditional driver. The insights gained here will help cities everywhere reduce porch piracy, cut emissions and accelerate the move to fully autonomous delivery."
