("Cloudastructure" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: CSAI), an award-winning provider of AI-powered surveillance, remote monitoring, and cloud-based security analytics, today announced it will deploy its AI Surveillance and Remote Guarding platform across a five-building commercial office portfolio in Southern California, fully replacing the property's dedicated onsite security guard with camera-based monitoring and live remote guarding. The transition is scheduled to begin in late summer 2026, with full operations targeted for mid-September. The deployment expands Cloudastructure's relationship with one of the world's largest commercial real estate services and investment firms, which manages the portfolio on behalf of its ownership. The opportunity resulted from a direct referral by a sister property within the same institutional tenant's portfolio, reinforcing the Company's land-and-expand strategy. None of the portfolio's five buildings currently has camera coverage at its lobby entrances, so Cloudastructure will design and install the surveillance infrastructure across the entire property from the ground up. Greenfield deployments like this represent some of the Company's most attractive opportunities, allowing it to capture the full installation footprint while establishing a larger recurring subscription base. "Replacing a round-the-clock guard post with our platform isn't just a cost decision for property owners, it's a reliability decision," said Ed Burnett, Chief of Operations and Security at Cloudastructure. "Onsite guards get sick, take breaks, and turn over; a guard shortage or a staffing gap can leave a lobby uncovered with no notice. Our AI-powered analytics and live remote guarding never clock out. They flag activity in real time, and a remote guard can respond immediately, every hour of every day. For a portfolio like this one, that's a more consistent security model than relying on a single onsite officer, often at a lower total cost." Rising guard wages, persistent staffing shortages and growing demand for around-the-clock coverage are driving more commercial landlords to evaluate AI-powered remote guarding as an alternative to traditional onsite personnel. This deployment represents Cloudastructure's first commercial office portfolio to fully replace an onsite guard program with remote guarding at scale and further expands the Company's presence beyond its core multifamily business. As adoption continues across commercial real estate, Cloudastructure believes its platform is well positioned to support this transition.
