Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) Advanced AI Patent Protections with Notification Publications in Australia, Israel, and the European Region

• The company’s AI-powered explosives detection technology, SpotlightAI(TM), has processed over 1.78 million drone images in Ukraine, detecting more than 31,600 explosive threats.
• The company holds a U.S. patent valid until 2043, with protections extending to 47 jurisdictions through national phase filings.
• Safe Pro’s AI threat detection will participate in two events of the U.S. Army’s 2026 Concept Focused Warfighter Experiment (“CFWE”).
• The Senate has advanced an additional $617 million in potential funding for small unmanned aircraft systems, a category that Safe Pro’s technology supports.
• Expanding patent protections and military validation is expected to strengthen the company’s long-term position in the defense and humanitarian demining markets.

Safe Pro Group (NASDAQ: SPAI), an emerging provider of AI-powered security and threat detection solutions, is taking a significant step in its intellectual property strategy, expanding international patent protections for its AI-powered explosives detection systems. The company has received publication notices under the Patent Cooperation Treaty for applications in Australia, Israel, and the European region, signaling progress in securing exclusive rights across multiple jurisdictions (https://ibn.fm/HjwrB).

The publication stage places competitors on notice that similar technology development could lead to infringement claims. Safe Pro’s patent strategy is aimed at long-term shareholder value, according to Chairman and CEO Dan Erdberg. He noted that the global landmine crisis is intensifying, especially as some European nations reconsider their participation in the Ottawa Convention, which bans anti-personnel mines, and that may lead to a dramatic increase in threats to armed forces and allies.

“Landmines are already a global problem, and their further proliferation poses a massive challenge. Therefore, we are actively pursuing global protection of our valuable intellectual property, which has demonstrated its real-world ability to uniquely address this threat,” Erdberg said.

Safe Pro’s U.S. Patent No. 12,146,729, granted earlier this year, covers autonomous detection, identification, and labeling of explosives in orthomosaic images derived from drone footage. The patent runs until 2043 and supports applications across defense, humanitarian demining, and other sectors. The company has filed national phase applications in Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Israel, and Ukraine, ultimately covering 47 jurisdictions.

The company’s SPOTD (Safe Pro Object Threat Detection) system is designed to detect over 150 types of small explosive threats, including landmines and unexploded ordnance. The technology can be deployed either on the edge for real-time use (SpotlightAI(TM) OnSite) or through Amazon Web Services for cloud-based operations.

The datasets underpinning the AI’s accuracy are substantial. In Ukraine, SpotlightAI(TM) has processed more than 1.78 million high-resolution drone images, identifying over 31,600 explosive threats across nearly 7,819 hectares; an area comparable to the size of Manhattan. This volume of real-world operational data strengthens both the system’s credibility and its market potential.

The U.S. Army has recognized the capability of Safe Pro’s AI. The company will participate in two events at the 2026 Concept Focused Warfighter Experiment: the Maneuver demonstration and the Live Breach event. These events are part of the Army Futures Command’s initiative to evaluate emerging technologies for battlefield use (https://ibn.fm/UBh99).

During these events, Safe Pro will showcase how its AI can detect and identify threats in a fraction of a second per image, providing rapid situational awareness. The company is also working to integrate its technology into the TAK (Tactical Assault Kit) ecosystem, enabling near-instant transmission of detections to soldier-carried or vehicle-mounted devices.

This integration into widely used military software platforms could make Safe Pro’s technology a standard tool for small unit operations. The timing aligns with increased U.S. defense budget allocations for drone and AI capabilities. The Senate Appropriations Committee has advanced a proposal for $617 million in funding for small unmanned aircraft systems, including the Short Range Reconnaissance program, which aligns with Safe Pro’s operational focus. Additionally, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act allocates up to $30 billion for drones, AI, and defense modernization.

With the humanitarian and commercial demining market also expanding, as nearly 60 countries are affected by landmines or unexploded ordnance, Safe Pro’s addressable market extends beyond defense to reconstruction and infrastructure development. The technology’s adaptability to multiple deployment methods enhances its relevance in varied operational settings.
