An organ removed from the human body triggers a race against time. However, many organs are discarded after they don’t reach their destination in the 'golden hour'. Especially in areas without adequate transportation facilities, it is challenging to transport organs. With Apini, it becomes possible for rapid and efficient organ transportation between hospitals, ensuring the golden hour" and tracking the transportation. Apini replaces inefficient processes in the medical industry caused by using conventional transport infrastructure and can be a practical alternative for the drone industry, which faces limitations in the transport industry.
