Company Overview

Aeronext Inc. is a Tokyo drone-technology company founded April 11, 2017 by CEO Keisuke Toji. It operates as an IP and R&D business rather than a drone manufacturer, licensing patents to partners; its subsidiary NEXT DELIVERY Inc., established January 2021 in Kosuge Village, Yamanashi Prefecture, runs drone-logistics services directly.

Its core technology, 4D GRAVITY, is a structural airframe design that shifts and stabilizes an aircraft's center of gravity and equalizes motor rotation regardless of flight attitude; the patent was filed May 2015 and registered June 2018. Licensees include ACSL Ltd. (2020) and Prodrone Co., Ltd. (2024). With ACSL, Aeronext co-developed AirTruck, a logistics drone with a 5-kilogram payload and 20-kilometer range, flown on 466 flights covering 1,730 kilometers around Kosuge Village and Kamishihoro, Hokkaido. In June 2026 the company showed an ActiveWing prototype adding movable auxiliary wings to extend range. NEXT DELIVERY runs the SkyHub platform, combining trucks and drones for last-mile delivery in depopulated, aging rural Japan.

Capital, including reserve, stood at approximately 1.9 billion yen as of December 2025, raised via DRONE FUND, Spiral Capital, and Impact Capital Limited, plus investment from Seino Holdings, KDDI, and Aioi Nissay Dowa Insurance. It also runs a lab in Saitama and an office in Shenzhen, China.
