Exhibit 99.1
AITX's RAD Wins Major RIO Mini and SARA Deployment for Government Construction Project
Government Site Deployment Highlights Growing Demand for RIO Mini and SARA Across the Construction Sector
Detroit, Michigan, October 2, 2025 -- Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCID:AITX), a global leader in AI-driven security and productivity solutions, along with its wholly owned subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. **** (RAD), today announced it has received an order for ten RIO™ Mini portable solar-powered security units with SARA™, the Company's multiple award-winning agentic AI platform. The order, placed directly by a large construction company specializing in corporate, commercial, and government projects, will be deployed at a government construction site under a contract term of at least four years.

This large-scale construction site will have up to 10 years of activity and there is an expectation that the initial order may increase to deployments of over 100 RAD devices. The deployment is through one of RAD's large general contractor direct clients.
"We're thrilled to be involved in this project," said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO and founder of AITX and RAD. "The potential expansion from ten units to as many as one hundred, with multi-year contracts, represents a clear path toward strong recurring monthly revenue and predictable annual recurring revenue. Our ability to deliver both immediate value and long-term stability is exactly what our clients, channel partners and shareholders are looking for."
RIO Mini gives construction managers an immediate, flexible security solution that can be moved and redeployed as a project evolves. Each unit operates independently with solar power and enhanced cellular connectivity, making it simple to position wherever surveillance and deterrence are most needed. With SARA providing real-time monitoring and autonomous response, the system reduces reliance on costly guard services while ensuring tools, equipment, and materials remain secure throughout every phase of the build.
"We are seeing growing interest from construction firms that are rethinking how they secure their projects," said Mark Folmer, CPP, PSP, President of RAD. "RIO Mini with SARA is delivering practical results in the field, reducing costs while raising security performance. This deployment underscores the progress RAD is making in construction and sets the stage for broader adoption."
The Company believes that this deployment represents only the beginning of a broader expansion within the construction sector. With the potential to scale to 100 units on long-term contracts, the Company sees significant opportunity to establish RIO Mini and SARA as essential tools for securing high-value projects. Construction companies seeking to reduce theft, protect assets, and control security costs are encouraged to contact RAD to explore how these solutions can be deployed quickly and effectively on active sites.
