Why mana.ie exists, what it isn't, and how it's funded.
mana.ie is an independent, non-commercial informational page about drone delivery in Ireland. The site publishes a short, neutral guide to the Irish drone-delivery market and the regulatory backdrop that lets it operate. It exists because the domain attracts a steady stream of search traffic from people looking for information about drone delivery in Ireland, and a parked page would serve none of them.
This page is not Manna Aero. It does not provide drone delivery. It does not take orders. It does not have access to Manna's customer records, delivery status, account details, or complaints process. If you arrived here looking for the Manna service, you need manna.aero or the Manna app from the App Store / Google Play.
This page is also not affiliated with any of Manna's competitors — Wing (Alphabet), Zipline, or Amazon Prime Air. It does not endorse any operator. The operator overview page reports factual public information about each, with citations.
It isn't. There is no advertising on the site, no affiliate commissions on the operators listed, no sponsored content, no paid links. The domain registration and small hosting cost are paid by the registrant out of pocket.
This is the deliberate posture for a brand-adjacent informational page. Carrying advertising for a drone-delivery competitor of Manna would create the appearance of a commercial relationship that doesn't exist. Carrying drone-delivery affiliate links would imply an order-routing capability the page doesn't have. Plain editorial content avoids both problems.
Every operator-specific claim on the site is sourced. Manna Aero figures (delivery counts, funding, service area) are cited to the originating press article (RTÉ, Irish Times, DroneDJ, Fortune) or to Manna's own published statements. Regulatory claims (IAA, EASA, Specific Category, BVLOS, etc.) are cited to the regulator's own pages where possible. Where a claim cannot be cleanly sourced, it is omitted.
If a fact on the site is wrong or out of date, please flag it via the contact form. Corrections are processed without charge and without delay. The page is run by a small private holder who does not have a press office and may take a few days to respond, but every flagged correction is reviewed.
