AI Nose delivers accuracy and versatility, driving scalable growth across healthcare, industrial and robotics markets

Technology, data moat, and strategic partnerships position Ainos for accelerated commercial readiness and expansion

SAN DIEGO, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / July 24, 2025 / Ainos, Inc. (NASDAQ: AIMD)(NASDAQ: AIMDW) ("Ainos" or the "Company"), a leader in AI-powered scent digitization, today announced that Water Tower Research has published a recap of its recent Small-Cap Spotlight podcast. The report highlights the Company's AI Nose platform, an advanced smell digitization technology powered by artificial intelligence and built on over a decade of innovation, a deep data moat, strategic partnerships, and a clear commercialization roadmap. The report identifies AI Nose as a foundational innovation in olfactory AI, a rapidly emerging and underdeveloped frontier within the sensory AI landscape.

Key Highlights from the Report:

• AI Nose establishes olfactory AI as a powerful new tool for industrial intelligence, combining accuracy with adaptability: AI Nose delivers 90+% accuracy in distinguishing everyday scents, 85% in senior care environments, and 80% across 22 industrial scent types in semiconductor settings. Its AI model, smell language model (SLM), improves with each use, creating a powerful data-driven flywheel effect that can support scalable deployment across multiple high-growth verticals.

• Early-mover innovation and data moat cement AI Nose's distinct competitive edge in smell digitization: While most AI innovation has focused on vision and voice, Ainos positions smell as a high-impact, underdeveloped frontier. Built on over a decade of technical innovation and a growing scent dataset, AI Nose combines advanced calibration, high-precision signal processing, and custom sensor arrays into a powerful scent sensing platform. Originally developed for medical use, the platform has expanded into robotics, semiconductor manufacturing, and industrial automation, positioning it as a frontrunner in the fast-emerging field of olfactory AI.

• Strategic partnerships fuel commercial scale-up across key verticals: Ainos is rapidly expanding AI Nose's market reach and accelerating commercialization through strategic alliances - with more likely to come. The Company sees Asia as a key launchpad given the region's strengths in electronic manufacturing services, semiconductors, automation and robotics. At the same time, Ainos welcomes partnership opportunities in the U.S. and Europe to support global commercialization.

About AI Nose

AI Nose digitizes scent into Smell ID, an AI-driven scent intelligence. This full-stack electronic nose (e-nose) platform combines precision MEMS sensor arrays with proprietary AI algorithms, aiming to detect scent at parts-per-billion (ppb) sensitivity. Smell ID then converts analog scent data into actionable insights, while the proprietary smell language model (SLM) learns complex scent patterns. Backed by a 13-year scent data moat and deep medtech expertise, AI Nose aims to deliver continuous monitoring, predictive analytics, and instant alerts to boost safety, quality, and efficiency. To be delivered as SmellTech-as-a-Service, it aims to offer subscription access to ongoing scent intelligence, analytics, and real-time alerts, turning the invisible into strategic advantage.
