Insights

AITX adds a 30-unit data center deployment expected to exceed $500K ARR.

Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions is expanding its installed base with an existing construction client, growing from an initial deployment to 30 RIO Mini towers at one data center site. Each unit runs the SARA AI platform, reinforcing the firm’s Solutions-as-a-Service model.

The company states that this footprint is expected to generate more than $500,000 in annual recurring revenue, contributing to contracted revenue and its stated objective of reaching positive operating cash flow. Because baseline revenue is not provided in this content, the relative financial impact cannot be precisely assessed.

Management also emphasizes broader market context: a nearly $50 billion security and guarding services industry and a sales pipeline including over 35 Fortune 500 companies. Future filings will be important for showing how many similar multi-unit deployments convert from that pipeline into recurring revenue.

"the thirty-unit RIO Mini footprint at this location is expected to earn the Company more than $500,000 in annual recurring revenue (ARR)"
Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) is the predictable amount of money a company expects to earn in a year from its ongoing services or subscriptions. It helps businesses understand their steady income stream, much like knowing how much rent they can count on each year, which is important for planning and growth.

Exhibit 99.1

AITX's RAD Expands Data Center Security Footprint to 30 Units at Single Site

SARA Licensed Deployment Expected to Exceed $500K in Annual Recurring Revenue

Detroit, Michigan, April 10, 2026 -- Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCID:AITXD), 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 secured an order for ten additional RIO™ Mini autonomous solar powered security towers, each licensed with SARA™ (Speaking Autonomous Responsive Agent), from an existing Midwest based construction client. The units will soon be deployed at a large-scale data center development site, bringing the client's total planned deployment at this single location to thirty RIO Mini units, each operating with SARA.

The expansion comes as data center development accelerates across North America, with hundreds of new facilities currently under construction or in advanced planning to support growing demand for cloud computing and AI infrastructure. These large-scale projects often span extensive footprints and multi-year timelines, creating prolonged periods where valuable materials, equipment, and critical infrastructure are exposed before permanent security systems are in place. This environment is driving increased adoption of rapidly deployable, autonomous security solutions capable of providing continuous coverage and intelligent response throughout the construction phase.

Upon deployment of these additional ten units, the thirty-unit RIO Mini footprint at this location is expected to earn the Company more than $500,000 in annual recurring revenue (ARR), reinforcing the Company's expanding base of contracted revenue and continued progress toward achieving positive operating cash flow. The customer's growth from an initial deployment to a thirty-unit footprint at a single site reflects a repeatable expansion pattern as large scale construction projects advance and security requirements increase.

"Large scale data center developments represent some of the most critical infrastructure projects underway today," said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO and founder of AITX and RAD. "These sites demand continuous awareness and response from the earliest stages of construction through full operation. What we are seeing is a clear shift toward autonomous security as a practical and scalable solution during this phase. Expanding to thirty RIO Mini units at a single location reflects both the customer's confidence in our technology and the growing role that SARA is playing in securing complex, high value environments."

RAD anticipates further expansion with this client as the data center development progresses, with additional deployments aligned to evolving site requirements. The Company continues to see similar opportunities across large scale construction projects where security needs increase in step with project complexity and asset concentration.

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.
