Advances AI Strategy Through Development and Deployment of An AI Inference Platform
Los
Angeles, CA, April 8, 2026 – XMax Inc. (NASDAQ: XWIN) (“XMax” or the “Company”) today announced a key milestone
in its artificial intelligence (“AI”) strategy with the deployment of an AI inference platform, further advancing its expansion
toward a software-driven and platform-based AI business.
XMax
AI Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“XMax AI”), has entered into an agreement with CLOUD ALLIANCE INC to develop
and deploy a cloud-based AI inference platform to the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud environment designated by XMax AI. The platform
is designed to support scalable AI application development, multi-model integration, and potential commercial deployment.
The
platform will feature core capabilities including large-model API access and intelligent routing, user authentication, integrated payment
processing, usage-based billing, and workflow management tools. Together, these functionalities are expected to enable XMax to establish
a unified AI service layer supporting both internal operations and potential future external commercialization.
The
deployment is expected to be completed within approximately 30 days, subject to standard implementation conditions.
This
initiative represents a foundational step in XMax’s broader AI expansion strategy, positioning the Company to develop from a traditional
product-focused business into a scalable, software-centric platform. XMax believes that establishing capabilities in the orchestration
and deployment layer of AI services is critical to capturing long-term value in the rapidly evolving AI ecosystem.
“We
view AI infrastructure and software capability as core to our next phase of growth,” said Mr. Xiaohua Lu, Chief Executive Officer
of XMax. “This deployment establishes the foundation for XMax to operate as an AI-enabled platform company, capable of delivering
scalable and commercialized AI solutions.”
Following
deployment, the Company plans to enhance platform capabilities, integrate additional AI models, and explore commercialization opportunities
and strategic partnerships.
