Detroit, Michigan, July 30, 2026 -- Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCID:AITX), a developer and operator of AI-driven security and productivity solutions for enterprise clients, along with its wholly owned subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), today announced that an existing construction industry client has entered into a fully executed agreement for 12 additional RIO™ Mini autonomous solar powered security trailers, and 12 ROSA™ autonomous security units, each equipped with a SARA™ (Speaking Autonomous Responsive Agent) license, for deployment at a new large data center construction project.

Based on RAD's internal order records, this agreement represents RAD's largest single order to date for a data center construction application. Full deployment is expected by September 1, 2026. The agreement provides for a minimum deployment term of two years, with an option for the customer to continue the deployment uninterrupted for a third year.
Large scale data center construction presents a unique security challenge. These expansive, constantly evolving environments often contain valuable equipment and materials spread across broad outdoor areas where traditional security approaches can be difficult and costly to deploy effectively. RAD believes this growing segment is well suited for autonomous security, where continuous awareness, intelligent response, and the ability to scale quickly can address challenges that have traditionally required significant security resources.
"Large construction projects have historically required a significant security presence simply because of their size and complexity," said Troy McCanna, Chief Revenue Officer and Chief Security Officer at RAD. "Today we're seeing customers in this segment shift toward autonomous security. This customer is demonstrating that RIO, ROSA and SARA can serve as the core of a large site's security program while delivering the consistent awareness and responsiveness these projects require."
RAD believes large data center construction projects represent a compelling opportunity for autonomous security solutions. These sites often require temporary yet comprehensive security throughout extended construction schedules, creating an opportunity for organizations to deploy autonomous security early in a project's lifecycle. As facilities transition from construction to operation, RAD believes these deployments may naturally expand to include permanent security solutions such as ROAMEO™ and AVA™, supported by ongoing SARA licenses.
The Company invites prospective clients, channel partners, and industry participants to connect with its team to learn how RAD's solutions can support their security and operational objectives.
