Resident orders from home
The apartment screen or mobile app becomes the storefront for the building market.
In-building autonomous logistics
Your daily market, delivered inside the apartment in minutes.
Apartube works like a building-wide automated market. Residents order groceries and daily essentials from home; compact rail-suspended cabins deliver them directly to a kitchen-height station inside the apartment — without couriers, elevators or waiting at the lobby.

No courierinside the building
Horizontal movement stays at basement level.
Each apartment line has its own vertical shaft; the cabin only rises to the selected unit and returns down.
Concept video
Watch the building-wide market concept.
This concept video shows the core idea: orders are prepared at the market level and carried by an automated internal rail network directly to the apartment.
Market model
A building-wide automated market, available from every apartment.
Apartube is not only a parcel system. The core business model is daily market delivery inside large residential buildings: groceries, essentials, meals and medicines can be ordered from the apartment and delivered within minutes through the internal rail network.
Market prepares the basket
Products are picked at the basement or service-level market and loaded into a compact suspended cabin.
Cabin delivers in minutes
The cabin moves horizontally only at the lower logistics level, then rises through the selected apartment shaft.
Apartment becomes the vending point
Residents access the order from a kitchen-height automatic side sliding door — like having the market built into the home.
The problem
Home delivery is still slow, expensive and courier-dependent.
Slow market delivery
Even short grocery orders depend on external couriers, dispatch queues and building access delays.
High fulfilment cost
Last-meter delivery inside large buildings is labour-heavy and expensive for markets and operators.
Courier dependency
Every order brings external movement, security checks, elevator usage and uncontrolled waiting time.
The solution
A private automated market and logistics layer inside the building.
Apartube connects the building market, cargo point, storage areas and apartment stations through a compact rail-based transport network. The primary use case is frequent market delivery: turning each apartment into an on-demand receiving point for everyday shopping.

Dedicated internal deliveryThe cabin travels on suspended rails without couriers or passenger elevators.
Low-cost vertical transferAt the selected shaft, the rail segment and cabin are lifted together by cables.
How it works
From access point to apartment station in five controlled steps.
Load
A package or order is placed into a compact cabin at a market, cargo, storage or service station.
Route
The control system assigns the destination and moves the compact cabin while it is suspended from the ceiling-mounted basement rail.
Lift
At the selected apartment shaft, the cabin remains attached to its rail segment; cables lift the rail and cabin together.
Deliver
The cabin stops at a kitchen-height apartment station and an automatic side sliding door gives controlled access.
Confirm
Delivery can be confirmed through the resident interface, mobile app or building system integration.
Applications
Built for dense, service-heavy properties.

FAQ
Key questions for developers and partners.
Is Apartube mainly a parcel system?
No. Parcels are one use case, but the main commercial opportunity is fast in-building market delivery: groceries and daily essentials delivered directly into apartments within minutes.
What does Apartube carry?
Groceries, parcels, e-commerce orders, food, medicine, laundry and internal building logistics within the size and weight limits of the cabin design.
Does it use a separate elevator?
No. The current concept uses a rail-mounted cabin. At the shaft, the cabin and its rail segment are lifted together by cables.
Can it be integrated into new developments?
Yes. New residential, hotel and mixed-use projects are the most suitable starting point because shafts, stations and routing can be planned early.
Can it work with building systems?
The concept can be integrated with mobile apps, user stations, cargo screens, market systems and building management interfaces.
