*A Candid Internal Presentation with the AITX And RAD Teams Offers Rare Insight into Execution, Priorities, and What Comes Next**Detroit, Michigan, Jan. 02, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- *Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCID:AITX), a global leader in AI-driven security and productivity solutions, today announced the upcoming release of a year-end video message from CEO/CTO and founder Steve Reinharz, scheduled for January 3, 2026. Recorded as a direct internal address to the full AITX and RAD teams, the video provides a rare look inside how leadership discusses 2025 results, operational realities, internal priorities, and the execution mindset guiding the Company into 2026.

The video will be released at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Saturday, January 3, 2026, and will be available on the Company’s official YouTube channel and at AITX’s website at www.aitx.ai. The release provides public access to a leadership conversation that is typically reserved for internal audiences, offering visibility into how the organization closes a year and frames the next.

In the video, Reinharz walks through the Company’s year with uncommon directness, speaking to both progress and pressure points. He discusses where expectations were met, where they were not, and how leadership responded in real time. Topics include sales momentum entering 2026, production execution, product direction across hardware and software, internal discipline around spending, and how the organization is positioning itself for scale. Rather than a scripted update, the conversation reflects how priorities are set and communicated across the Company.

“In this conversation I wanted to be very direct about where we performed well, where we fell short, and how we adjusted,” Reinharz said. “We have built this Company by staying honest about execution, keeping priorities clear, and focusing on what moves the business forward. I felt it was important to share that perspective openly as we close one year and prepare for the next.”

The year end message also outlines the Company’s near-term focus and longer-range objectives, including the path toward positive operational cash flow, the pursuit of surpassing $1 million in recurring monthly revenue (RMR), and the broader ambition of positioning the business for a potential uplist to NASDAQ. Rather than presenting these goals as guarantees, the conversation frames them as execution targets supported by internal discipline, product momentum, and organizational alignment. The result is a rare window into how leadership is thinking about scale, timing, and accountability as AITX moves into 2026.

The full video message will be released on January 3 and provides direct context around the themes outlined above. Viewers are encouraged to watch the complete conversation to hear the perspective in Reinharz’s own words and to subscribe to the Company’s YouTube channel for future updates and leadership commentary.

All RAD technologies, AI-based analytics and software platforms are developed in-house.

The Company’s operations and internal controls have been validated through successful completion of its SOC 2 Type 2 audit, which is a formal, independent audit that evaluates a service organization's internal controls for handling customer data and determines if the controls are not only designed properly but also operating effectively to protect customer data. This audit reinforces the Company’s credibility with enterprise and government clients who require strict data protection and security compliance.

RAD is led by Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO and founder of AITX and RAD, who brings decades of experience in the security services industry.
