AITX’s RAD Adds Another Municipal Customer with Seven ROSA Unit Order

New Order Extends RAD’s Support of Municipalities and Improvement Districts Nationwide

Detroit, Michigan–(Newsfile Corp. – October 14, 2026) – Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (OTCID: AITX) (the “Company”), a developer and operator of AI-driven security and productivity solutions for enterprise clients, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), has secured an order for seven ROSA™ units from a new municipal customer in a major Midwest city. A longstanding RAD channel partner facilitated the order, which further expands RAD’s presence in municipal security. The units will be positioned throughout a civic plaza to help safeguard public spaces through detection and active deterrence of loitering, trespassing and suspicious behavior. The city council participated in the selection process and approved funding for the deployment.

The order extends RAD’s work with municipalities, Community Improvement Districts (CIDs) and Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) across the country. On April 14, 2025, the Company announced a separate deployment supporting public spaces in another large city. This latest order brings an additional municipal customer into RAD’s client base and reflects continued adoption of autonomous security solutions to help protect civic spaces and support local public safety efforts.

“Cities, CIDs and BIDs need practical ways to protect shared spaces while making every security dollar count,” said Troy McCanna, Chief Revenue Officer and Chief Security Officer at RAD. “Supporting these organizations means giving their teams tools that can detect activity, engage people and help address a problem while it is developing. ROSA, with SARA™ agentic AI included as a standard feature, brings that capability directly into the spaces they manage, extending their security presence and supporting the work of local law enforcement.”

Major urban areas face persistent challenges involving loitering, trespassing and disruptive behavior in shared public spaces. Video monitoring that depends on continuous human attention can leave gaps between detection and intervention, while staffing every location around the clock carries substantial recurring labor costs. ROSA helps close those gaps through AI detection, responsive digital signage and audio warnings. SARA investigates detected events, evaluates whether intervention is needed and initiates responses according to established instructions, including escalation to designated personnel. Together, ROSA and SARA provide active deterrence and automated response, helping municipalities and improvement districts make more effective use of their security resources.

The Company invites municipal leaders, representatives of CIDs and BIDs, law enforcement agencies and channel partners to request a demonstration of ROSA and SARA. RAD’s team can help evaluate how automated detection, active deterrence and coordinated response could support security needs across civic plazas, business districts and other shared public spaces.

CAUTIONARY DISCLOSURE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the anticipated delivery, deployment and use of seven ROSA units at a civic plaza; the expected capabilities of ROSA and SARA to detect and deter unwanted activity, evaluate events, initiate responses and escalate incidents to designated personnel; the potential to support public safety efforts, improve security coverage and make more effective use of security resources; potential staffing efficiencies or cost savings; and opportunities for additional orders, deployments, channel partner business and broader adoption by municipalities, Community Improvement Districts, Business Improvement Districts and other customers.

Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially. These risks and uncertainties include, among others: modification, delay, cancellation or termination of orders or related contractual arrangements; delays or failures in manufacturing, component availability, quality control, transportation, site preparation, installation, commissioning or customer acceptance; the possibility that ROSA or SARA does not perform as expected or meet customer requirements under actual operating conditions; interruptions, errors or limitations in detection, event evaluation, automated responses, deterrence, communications, connectivity, power or other hardware and software functions; dependence on equipment placement, system configuration, customer instructions, designated contact availability and human response; the possibility that anticipated security improvements, staffing efficiencies or cost savings are not achieved or are offset by equipment, deployment, monitoring, maintenance, service or other operating costs; the Company’s and its channel partners’ ability to fulfill commitments and provide reliable service and support; municipal budget constraints, procurement requirements, changes in funding or security priorities, and applicable privacy, data protection or other legal requirements; competition, customer concentration and the loss or reduction of business from significant customers; the Company’s ability to fund operations and fulfill customer commitments; its ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms or at all and the potential dilutive effect of such financing; its history of operating losses and substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern; and the other risks described in the Company’s most recent Annual Report and subsequent filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available at www.sec.gov.

The announced order does not, by itself, establish that the seven units are installed, operational or generating revenue, and should not be interpreted as a statement of recognized revenue, recurring revenue or customer profitability. City council participation in selection and approval of funding do not guarantee deployment completion, additional purchases or future funding. References to prior deployments and the addition of a new municipal customer do not assure sustained demand, additional orders or broader market adoption. Actual security outcomes and cost savings will depend on site conditions, equipment placement, deployment configurations, monitoring and response arrangements, service requirements and the extent to which existing security duties can be reassigned or reduced. RAD solutions do not guarantee the prevention of crime or other security incidents and do not eliminate the need for appropriate human oversight or law enforcement response. This order should not be interpreted as a forecast of future order rates, revenue, profitability or market adoption.
