I recommend the documentary ‘e - Dreams’ about the company.

Amazon was an early investor, and they now offer same day delivery in the metro areas Kozmo serviced.

Netflix allowed for returning DVDs via pre-paid mailers, instead of dropping them off at Kozmo dropboxes at random local businesses.

They also worked with some local eateries to deliver food.

I had once ordered a dozen bagels, a Pokemon DVD, and I think a magazine in a single order.

I loved the concept and the company. According to the documentary, they were on the path to profitability, but threatened the existing status quo of then incumbent providers.

I wasn’t aware of that, many thanks for the recommendation.
