What happened
Startup Arculus launched a home package protection ecosystem through a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign on September 15, 2026. The product targets the residential package theft and porch-piracy segment, a space that intersects with last-mile delivery services operated by carriers such as FedEx. No financial terms, unit pricing, or funding targets were disclosed in the announcement. Arculus is not affiliated with FedEx Corp.
