Asiakkaat
Joby's near-term paying customers are primarily U.S. government agencies, especially the Department of Defense, through flight services and related operations. Its future commercial customers are individual passengers using aerial ridesharing, plus enterprise and public-sector partners such as airlines, local operators, and foreign strategic partners that may buy aircraft or operate services with Joby. The company is also targeting defense and infrastructure-related use cases as a separate demand stream.
They buy flight services, on-base operations, and test/operational support for eVTOL and related missions.
Individual riders will book short-distance aerial trips through an app once commercial service launches.
Partners such as Delta and Uber help acquire customers, integrate booking, and support airport-to-city journeys.
Regional partners may operate Joby aircraft in markets where local expertise or ownership structures matter.
These customers may purchase aircraft directly for commercial, government, or defense applications.
Strategia
Joby's strategy is to build a vertically integrated eVTOL transportation company rather than only selling aircraft. It is pursuing three routes to market—owned-and-operated service, aircraft sales, and partnered service/JVs—while using alliances with Uber, Delta, and regional partners to reduce customer acquisition and market-entry friction. The company is also investing ahead of launch in certification, manufacturing scale, software, and operational systems to support first passenger service targeted for 2026.
Commercial value depends on regulatory approval and safe service entry.
Lower unit costs and higher utilization are needed for viable economics.
Partnerships can accelerate demand creation and reduce market-entry costs.
Aircraft sales and defense work can provide earlier or complementary revenue streams.
Maantiede
Q1/2026Joby is headquartered in Santa Cruz, California and is building its first commercial service in the United States, with Dubai also named as an initial operating market. The company is pursuing a global rollout through partner-operated markets and app integrations, including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Kazakhstan, while defense work remains anchored in the U.S. Geography matters because certification, local regulation, airport access, and partner structure will determine how quickly each market can launch.

Riskit
Joby's biggest risks are regulatory approval, commercialization timing, and the need to scale manufacturing before demand is proven. As an early-stage eVTOL company, it also faces execution risk around safety, reliability, partner dependence, and the possibility that the UAM market develops more slowly than expected. Trade policy, reputational issues from third-party operators, and continued losses add further pressure.
