Following a successful pilot that included both residents and city workers, the city has decided to begin Bond deployment on behalf of all 10,000 municipal employees; deal has potential to grow to over 1,000,000 licenses if expanded to residents
NEW YORK, June 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Our Bond, Inc. (“Bond”) (NASDAQ: OBAI), the creator of the world’s first AI-powered Preventative Personal Security platform adopted by leading multinational companies, today announced that a major international city is expanding its relationship with the Company by awarding Bond a deal to provide preventative personal security services for all municipal employees following the successful completion of a pilot program.
The expansion marks another significant milestone in Bond's rapidly growing business-to-government channel and further validates the Company's ability to scale from pilot engagements to citywide deployments. The agreement, which Bond expects to be signed imminently as all major points have been agreed, will add to a growing roster of municipal partnerships and highlights increasing demand among cities seeking innovative, technology-driven approaches to improve personal safety and wellbeing for employees and residents alike.
Importantly, Bond and city officials are engaged in ongoing discussions regarding a potential future expansion of services beyond municipal employees to include the city's entire population of more than 1 million residents, representing a substantial opportunity to deepen the relationship and expand platform adoption and annual recurring revenue.
Bond was once again recognized as a sole supplier in the procurement process, significantly accelerating the sales cycle and reinforcing the differentiated nature of the Company's offering.
"We believe this expansion further demonstrates the growing momentum we are seeing within the municipal market," said Doron Kempel, Founder and CEO of Bond. "The city initially engaged Bond through a pilot program, is expanding to all municipal employees after experiencing the value of our platform, and is also exploring the possibility of extending coverage to all residents. We believe this progression validates our land-and-expand strategy and illustrates the significant long-term opportunity for Bond to become a trusted preventative personal security partner for cities around the world."
The agreement further strengthens Bond's business-to-government channel, which complements the Company's direct-to-consumer, business-to-business, and business-to-business-to-consumer offerings.
