Aitenders Technologies receives CSE approval; begins trading

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - August 10, 2026) - Aitenders Technologies Inc. (CSE: BIDS) (" Aitenders " or the " Company "), the developer of an end-to-end AI-powered platform for tender response and contract management purpose built for complex construction and infrastructure projects, is pleased to announce that the Company has received final approval to list its common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the " CSE ").

Aitenders common shares will commence trading at market open today under the trading symbol " BIDS ".

Geoffrey Guilly, Founder and CEO of Aitenders commented:

"Today is an incredible milestone for Aitenders as we begin the next phase of our journey as a publicly traded company. Prior to initiating the RTO with eXeBlock, we built Aitenders without raising venture capital. As the rate of value realized through implementation of AI accelerates, this listing provides us with growth capital, liquidity for shareholders, and increased visibility as a pure play AI software company delivering proven ROI for global architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) clients."

Aitenders is the intelligence operating system for construction, the world's largest industry and one of the least digitized. The Aitenders platform masters every requirement, clause, and commitment from pre-construction to project delivery: nothing missed, and the evidence to prove it. Every project makes the next one smarter, and the resulting intelligence asset belongs to the client.

As demand for construction grows with megatrends such as the AI infrastructure and energy build-out, the productivity unlocked by AI becomes the competitive advantage powering the firms positioned to win these projects. Aitenders gives expert teams that advantage, helping them bid and manage more projects with the same resources, while focusing on higher-value work. The same platform runs through delivery, where every commitment is tracked and every drift caught early, protecting the margin on contracts won.
