Follow On Order Builds on Initial Multi Site Deployment Announced in October

Detroit, Michigan, February 4, 2026 -- Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCID:AITX), a global leader in AI-driven security and productivity solutions, along with its wholly owned subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), today announced that it has received an expansion order from a major national auction operator for two RIO™ 360 units and two RIO Mini units, each paired with SARA™ (Speaking Autonomous Responsive Agent) agentic AI platform licenses. This expansion order builds directly on the initial order announced in October and reflects the customer's decision to broaden their use of RAD's autonomous security platform across additional sites.

The expanded deployment reflects how RAD customers typically scale after validating performance in live operating environments. Following initial installation, the operator evaluated system reliability, autonomous response consistency, and operational impact across active auction locations before authorizing additional units and SARA licenses. This approach continues to position RAD's RIO platform as a standardized security solution capable of supporting repeatable, multi-site expansion rather than isolated point deployments.

"This is aligned with the expansion plan originally discussed with them, start with a limited deployment and then expand once the systems are operating day in and day out in real conditions," said Troy McCanna, Chief Revenue Officer and Chief Security Officer of RAD. "We do not publicly announce every expansion order, but this broad deployment is both meaningful and representative of how organizations adopt our platform once it proves itself. This customer's decision to add multiple RIO units and SARA licenses reinforces the role of autonomous operations as a core part of their security strategy."

Securing large outdoor auction yards presents a persistent challenge, where valuable assets are spread across wide areas and traditional manned guarding can become both costly and difficult to staff consistently. RAD's autonomous security solutions offer practical alternatives by maintaining continuous coverage, enforcing consistent procedures, and operating without the variability inherent in human patrols. For operators managing multiple locations, this model reduces complexity while delivering reliable protection at scale.

RAD invites security professionals, channel partners, monitoring organizations, and media to see RIO and SARA in action at ISC West 2026. Attendees can experience live demonstrations and speak directly with RAD leadership and product experts about how SARA is operating today across real world environments. SARA enters ISC West following a breakout showing at last year's SIA New Product Showcase Awards, where it earned both Judges' Choice recognition and category honors, reinforcing its role as the intelligence engine behind RAD's autonomous security operations.
