What Moya Aero does

Moya Aero is a privately held Brazilian aerospace company founded in 2020 and headquartered in São José dos Campos. The company designs and manufactures high-capacity, all-electric unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for cargo delivery and precision low-altitude logistics operations. Its product portfolio comprises two platforms built on a shared systems architecture: the Moya 256, which is already operational, and the Moya 760, which is currently in the development stage. The shared architecture is intended to enable fleet scalability, easier maintenance through standardized components, and reduced emissions relative to conventional cargo transport. The company has publicly committed to marketing the full drone family by 2027.

The company targets low-altitude logistics operators—businesses and fleet operators focused on cargo delivery and emission reduction in freight transport—via what appears to be an enterprise field sales motion. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of its electric cargo drone platforms; specific pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company operates with a small team of 11–50 employees and has secured multiple funding rounds since 2022 from investors including FINEP, FUNDEPAR, HARDS, Mergus Ventures, and Techstars.

In April 2026, Moya Aero signed a nonbinding memorandum of understanding with Speedbird to explore collaboration in drone logistics and aerial mobility solutions, including potential integration of aircraft and systems. The partnership signals intent to extend beyond Brazil, with initial efforts focused on the Americas and potential expansion into Europe and Asia. Information on operational geographies, named customers, regulatory certifications, management team, and disclosed revenue is not present in the available source data.
