RAD Continuing Government Market Share Expansion  

Detroit, Michigan, January 29, 2025 Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCPK:AITX), a global leader in AI-driven security and productivity solutions for enterprise clients, along with its subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), has secured a contract for six RIO 360™ solar-powered security trailers. This order, facilitated through an authorized dealer, was placed by a municipality in the southeastern United States.

This contract was awarded following a competitive evaluation, with RAD’s RIO 360 security solution selected over an established industry leader in solar-powered security trailers. The decision reinforces RAD’s growing reputation as a preferred provider for municipalities seeking advanced security technology.

Building on the momentum announced earlier this week, this latest order further accelerates RAD’s expansion into city and county markets. The Company continues to see increased demand from municipalities looking for effective, cost-efficient security solutions that deliver real-time deterrence and remote monitoring capabilities.

“RIO 360 is winning when in competitive situations because it’s simply superior in so many ways” said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO of AITX and RAD. “Designed to provide comprehensive site coverage, the mobile security unit combines AI-powered analytics and automated deterrence features, making it an ideal choice for municipalities and large-scale deployments.”

With a growing pipeline of municipal and enterprise opportunities, RAD continues to expand its market presence with security solutions that provide immediate operational benefits and long-term cost savings. The Company remains focused on accelerating deployments, strengthening dealer partnerships, and securing additional contracts that reinforce its leadership in AI-driven security technology.

“Seeing municipalities adopt RAD solutions at an increasing pace is a testament to the effectiveness of our technology,” said Troy McCanna, Chief Security Officer & Senior Vice President of Revenue Operations at RAD. “RIO delivers the security coverage and deterrence that cities need while offering a streamlined deployment process through our dealer network. This latest contract is another indicator that RAD’s solutions are meeting the real-world demands of public safety and security.”

Reinharz concluded, “With a rapidly growing network of channel partners and enterprise clients, we are seeing an influx of demand for our AI-driven security solutions. Supporting this expansion requires investments in production, deployment logistics, and client support, ensuring that as we grow, we maintain the highest levels of service and innovation.”

Deployments are expected to begin in Q1 2025, with the RIO 360 units being placed at key locations identified by the end-user. RAD will support the deployment process along with its authorized dealer, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance.

Sitting atop a standard RIO 360 are two ROSA units. ROSA is a multiple award-winning, compact, self-contained security and communication device that can be installed and activated in about 15 minutes. Its AI-driven capabilities include human, firearm, and vehicle detection, license plate recognition, responsive digital signage, audio messaging, and seamless integration with RAD’s software suite for real-time notifications and autonomous intelligent responses. Two-way communication is optimized for cellular, including live video from ROSA’s high-resolution, full-color, always-on cameras. RAD has published six Case Studies detailing how ROSA has helped eliminate instances of theft, trespassing and loitering at retail centers, hospital campuses, multi-family communities, car rental locations and construction sites across the country.

AITX, through its primary subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD-I), is redefining the nearly $50 billion (US) security and guarding services industry[i] through its broad lineup of innovative, AI-driven Solutions-as-a-Service business model. RAD-I solutions are specifically designed to provide cost savings to businesses of between 35%-80% when compared to the industry’s existing and costly manned security guarding and monitoring model.

All RAD technologies, AI-based analytics and software platforms are developed in-house.

RAD-I expects to continue to attract new business as it converts its existing sales opportunities into deployed clients generating a recurring revenue stream.
