Beamr Issues Annual CEO Letter to Shareholders:
From Validation to Execution in AI Video
In 2026, Beamr plans to build the foundations
of its long-term growth by further developing solutions for video data in AI systems - both for human viewers and for machine vision
Herzliya, Israel, [ ] (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beamr Imaging Ltd. (NASDAQ: BMR), a leader in video optimization technology and solutions, today issued a Letter to Shareholders
from Sharon Carmel, Chief Executive Officer.
Dear Shareholders:
As we enter 2026, I am pleased to share with
you our key achievements last year and update you on our strategy to drive future growth. 2025 was a year of meaningful progress for Beamr
as we validated our technology for the autonomous vehicle (AV) sector, strengthened our product line with AI-enhanced solutions, and continued
to gain traction across verticals where video is central to business activity and its usage is growing rapidly, such as AV and media and
entertainment (M&E).
Looking toward an exciting year ahead, we
plan on executing our strategy to achieve long-term growth by further developing solutions for video data in AI systems, and transforming
complex workflows into reliable, scalable, and monetizable pipelines - both for human viewers and for machine vision.
Leadership through Early Investment in
AI-Driven Video Solutions
AI is transforming industries globally, making
fast adoption of AI platforms and tools essential. Beamr recognized this early and acted in advance, well ahead of the current AI disruption
in the markets. In 2021, we began integrating our patented Content-Adaptive Bitrate (CABR) video compression technology into GPUs (to
learn more, watch my presentation from NVIDIA GTC 2025 here). Since then, we have continued to invest in AI-driven capabilities across
our product line and operations, and we believe this positions us ahead of competitors who are only now beginning their AI adoption.
This early investment is already delivering
results. GPU-accelerated video processing with CABR enables us to enrich video data with AI-driven capabilities in a unified process with
video compression and optimization. Our recent innovations, including ML-safe video compression for the AV industry and real-time, cost-effective
AI-powered quality enhancement to 4K, are a result of these AI-driven foundations. The adoption of AI tools across Beamr is very fast,
enabling rapid execution. We are confident that Beamr is well positioned to deliver solutions to critical challenges for companies handling
video and data on a large scale, and to convert our commercial pipeline into meaningful outcomes.
Strategic Opportunities in Video Validation Framework
Our competitive position rests on decades of deep expertise
in perceptual video quality assessment. This capability, protected by patents and recognized with industry awards, represents a technical
and business barrier that competitors cannot easily replicate.
In 2026, we plan to introduce this proprietary technology to video
operators across M&E and AI industries that require proof that AI-enhanced and compressed video offers the visual quality human viewers
and machines expect, while also managing infrastructure costs and operations. Without validation frameworks aligned to viewer expectations,
operators hesitate to deploy innovative technologies at scale.
2025 Highlights
Validating our Technology for Machine Vision
and Autonomous Vehicles
In 2025, we entered
the AV market, as we moved from validating our offering toward to execution of our commercialization plan. We
believe that our contribution to the AV market could be transformative, with the ability to deliver 20%-50% savings in storage costs
alone. In addition, we can accelerate the end-to-end development pipeline for AV and machine vision applications, bringing
efficiency to storage, processing, and training.
Our engagement with top-tier
AV businesses further validates that our patented content-adaptive compression technology has the ability to address the critical demand
for smart compression in the industry. The AV market is under the category of enterprise sales, which translates into long sales and commercial
pipelines. This is why Beamr has significantly invested in, and has begun ramping up its efforts in sales, marketing, and sales related
engineering.
ML-Safe Benchmark Tests
To evaluate our solution for
AV and machine learning (ML), we performed a series of rigorous benchmark tests, using real-world AV footage and industry-standard models and metrics. Tests
showed Beamr’s content-adaptive technology achieves up to 50% file size reduction over existing workflows while preserving ML model
accuracy.
In August 2025, we published the results of these tests, following
collaboration with the NVIDIA AV Infrastructure team. In December 2025, we published the results of a comparison between Beamr’s
CABR and industry-standard compression, focusing on object detection and using industry-standard model and further confirming ML-safe
compression. In January 2026, we published the results of CABR compression over NVIDIA’s recently published physical AI AV dataset
– an already encoded dataset. Here again, testing showed 20%-50% file size reduction, while preserving the model’s output
with remarkable fidelity across detection, localization, and confidence consistency.
Expand business growth through partnerships
and presence in key industry events
To increase market awareness
of our technology and strategic positioning, our sales and marketing activities supported our entry into the AV market, while strengthening
our ongoing collaboration with our partners, NVIDIA and AWS.
In March 2025, I presented
a session showcasing how AI algorithms reshape video quality and usability and improve the efficiency of video workflows, at NVIDIA GTC.
In June, we participated in NVIDIA GTC Paris, where we launched our AV solution, and in September we joined IAA Mobility in Munich.
We are constantly exploring
opportunities to advance our collaborations with our partners and leading global technology companies. In 2025, Beamr joined the AWS ISV
Accelerate program, a global co-sell initiative for AWS partners, while demonstrating strong alignment with AWS’s go-to-market strategies
and initiatives. In March 2025, Beamr solutions became available to members of NVIDIA’s startup and ISV programs at special rates.
As part of this activity, we presented in: AWS Summit (New York, July), Oracle AI World (Las Vegas, October), AWS re:Invent 2025 (Las
Vegas, December).
To support these efforts,
we built internal validation, evaluation and onboarding tools used by sales and marketing teams to show before-and-after results, quantify
efficiency and quality metrics, and support customer onboarding, trial result reviews, and event demonstrations. These sales and marketing
efforts focused on differentiating Beamr in the video market and highlighting the value of our offerings to key and prospective customers.
In parallel to our product expansion and ecosystem partnerships, we significantly expanded our cloud-based evaluations and POC's during
2025 with leading AV stakeholders across North America and Europe. These engagements are actively progressing within our commercial pipeline
as customers validate CABR integration into large-scale cloud video and AI data workflows. Early results demonstrate measurable infrastructure
efficiencies while maintaining visual quality and machine learning model performance, accelerating customer decision processes and positioning
us for broader commercial rollouts.
Leveraging AI for Video Workflows
During the
past year, we showcased the relevance and capabilities of our CABR technology for AI video workflows that are transforming our target
industries.
In January 2025, Beamr hosted
a webinar titled: “The Future of AI Video – From Infrastructure to Experience” where we discussed the platforms and
technologies that drive the AI video revolution, and explored the opportunities and challenges of AI -powered media content.
In September 2025, we participated in the IBC Show where we demonstrated real-time, cost-effective AI-powered quality enhancement to 4K,
a unified workflow with CABR and NVIDIA RTX Video Super Resolution. This cost-effective solution
for broadcasters and streamers of live events, such as sports matches and music concerts won the TV Tech best of show award.
During the
event, Beamr COO, Haggai Barel, participated in a panel “Bringing AI Media Solutions to Market with NVIDIA”, discussing how
GPU-accelerated video workflows advance technology, user-experience and monetization opportunities through AI enhancements. We also presented
a session about our live 4K AI quality enhancement. Watch the presentation here.

We
believe our early and sustained investment in AI, from GPU integration beginning in 2021, through the development of AI-driven products
such as ML-safe compression for autonomous vehicles - gives us a meaningful advantage as these markets scale.
In 2026, we are focusing our sales and marketing efforts on a limited
number of higher-priority and potentially higher-impact opportunities with global industry leaders, some of whom we are already in discussions
with. We will refer to such industry leaders as “lighthouse” accounts, upon the signing of definitive agreements, and further
invest in extended evaluation and integration cycles by design, reflecting the mission critical role video plays in their core infrastructure
and decision-making pipelines. Success with these potential “lighthouse” customers would help to meaningfully validate our
business approach, accelerate broader market adoption, and expand our addressable footprint well beyond the initial deployment scope.
We believe that Beamr’s technology,
partnerships, and operational readiness are well positioned to convert our pipeline momentum in autonomous vehicles, machine vision and
AI video workflows into tangible commercial outcomes during this year.
