New property owner keeps AITX (OTC: AITXD) RAD autonomous security after review
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. filed an 8-K to furnish a press release describing how its RIO™ autonomous security devices were retained at a Southern California property after the site was sold to a new aerospace technology owner. The new owner independently reviewed the inherited security infrastructure and chose to keep the deployed RAD systems based on their operational performance, effectively becoming a new enterprise client while the original customer continues to use RAD solutions at other locations. The company highlights this outcome as validation of RAD’s AI-driven security platform, which it markets as part of a Solutions-as-a-Service model targeting the nearly $50 billion U.S. security and guarding services industry with potential cost savings of 35% to 80% versus traditional manned guarding.

Exhibit 99.1
AITX's RAD Retained Through Property Sale as New Owner Validates
Autonomous Security Performance
New Ownership Reviews, Evaluates and Retains RAD Systems Based on Proven Operational Results
Detroit, Michigan - April 1, 2026 - Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (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 its RIO™ autonomous security devices have been retained at a Southern California property following its recent sale from a major consumer products manufacturer to a leading aerospace technology provider. After assuming control of the site, the new property owner conducted an independent review of the existing security infrastructure and elected to maintain the deployed RAD systems based on their demonstrated operational performance.
Artist’s depiction of a property ownership transition where RAD’s autonomous security devices are evaluated and retained by the new operator.
The retained deployment builds on RAD's previously announced expansion with the original client, where multiple RIO Mini units were installed across the property as part of a structured evaluation and rollout process. As outlined in earlier communications, enterprise deployments often begin with measured validation in live environments before broader adoption decisions are made. In this case, that validation has now extended beyond the original end user, with a new property owner independently assessing the systems and arriving at the same conclusion, that RAD's autonomous security platform delivers meaningful operational value.
"This is what real validation looks like," said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO and founder of AITX and RAD. "When a property changes ownership, everything is reviewed. Budgets, vendors, performance, all of it. The new operator had no prior relationship with RAD and no obligation to keep our systems in place. They evaluated what was there, saw how it was performing, and made a fresh decision to retain it. That kind of outcome speaks directly to the real-world value these deployments are delivering."
While the property transfer introduces a new enterprise client to RAD's portfolio, the Company continues to support the original customer across its remaining locations, preserving an active and expanding relationship. The retention of the RIO systems at this site not only avoids typical attrition associated with property transitions but also establishes a new pathway for growth, as the incoming operator evaluates additional opportunities to extend autonomous security coverage within its broader real estate footprint.
The Company invites prospective clients, channel partners, and industry participants to connect with its team to explore how RAD's solutions can support their security and operational objectives and take part in this next phase of global expansion.
