mass-transit stations, hospitals, long-term care facilities, and
other high-traffic locations.
- Established SMRT Labs Inc. ("SMRT Labs") as a joint venture
company to commercialize ThermalPass. SMRT Labs is owned 51% by AI
Labs and 49% by Commersive Solutions Corp., a developer of

commercial launch in mid-October
2020, including initial orders from hospitals, long-term
care facilities and prisons in Canada, as well as hospitals and public

- Completed development of Alert Fleet, a cost-saving
software/sensor system that provides fleet owners with the tools
they need to run significantly safer and more efficient fleets
through Weather Telematics Inc. ("Weather Telematics"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Predictiv AI.

Solutions Inc. to commercialize Alert Fleet.

Support System for Operations Management (WISDOM) platform -- a
resource management and decision support tool to assist in the
effective and timely response to winter road conditions.
- Secured a multi-year agreement with Synoptic Data PBC for data
provision services. This licensing contract will generate
seven-figure revenue over the term for Weather Telematics and will
launch its next generation of weather and road temperature sensors,
which turns vehicles into their own mobile weather stations.
"In 2020, we achieved a number of key milestones at Predictiv AI
in R&D, sales and marketing, operations and corporate
development. On behalf of our leadership team and board of
directors, I would like to thank our shareholders and strategic
partners for their unwavering commitment to the company," said
Michael Lende, President and CEO of
Predictiv AI. "Our goals for 2021 are to continue to extend and
strengthen our innovative product portfolio, to ramp up sales of
