Investment to Accelerate Artificial Intelligence Utilization for Soldier Safety and Humanitarian Missions Globally
Safe Pro Group Inc. (Nasdaq: SPAI) (“Safe Pro” or the “Company”), a leader in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered defense and security solutions, today announced that it has entered into definitive agreements for a $14 million strategic investment led by Ondas Holdings Inc. (“ONDAS”) (Nasdaq: ONDS), a leading provider of autonomous drone solutions.
The private placement consists of the sale of two million shares of Safe Pro common stock. Proceeds are expected to accelerate and expand development and integration of Safe Pro’s AI-powered computer vision and threat detection systems for deployment in U.S. and international defense and humanitarian markets. The closing is expected to occur on or about October 22, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. This private placement follows an earlier investment made by ONDAS into Safe Pro Group along-side other strategic investors in August.
Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group, said: “This additional investment by Ondas serves as further validation of our capabilities to leverage AI and drones to enhance soldier safety and humanitarian missions globally. We look forward to working closely with Ondas to expand the operational reach of our AI-driven threat detection capabilities, pursuing opportunities that deliver capabilities that can significantly enhance the safety of our soldiers and that of our allies while also protecting innocent lives in nearly 60 countries from the dangers of landmines.”
Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas Holdings, commented: “Our additional investment in Safe Pro reflects Ondas’ confidence in the growing role of AI and autonomy in advancing defense and humanitarian operations worldwide. Safe Pro’s proven ability to deploy AI-powered detection and mapping at the tactical edge aligns closely with our vision for integrating intelligent, autonomous systems to enhance mission effectiveness and save lives in the field.”
Safe Pro’s battle-tested AI leverages years of real-world data to instantly detect small, hard-to-find explosive threats in aerial imagery and video. The technology converts raw data into rapidly shareable, high-resolution 2D and 3D maps, providing a novel and scalable approach to battlefield and disaster-zone intelligence. The SPOTD NODE (Navigation, Observation and Detection Engine) provides real-time AI analysis of drone video and imagery directly at the tactical edge. Designed alongside military end-users, the SPOTD NODE rapidly detects landmines and more than 150 types of unexploded ordnance (UXO) and creates high definition 2D/3D maps without requiring an internet connection. Built on over 2.0 million drone images and utilized in battlefield operations in Ukraine, Safe Pro’ AI image processing technology has already delivered over 36,000 detections and mapped over 9,166 hectares (22,640 acres).
