Xtract One Expands AI-Powered Security Deployment with Leading U.S. Airline Company
TORONTO, Aug. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xtract One Technologies (TSX: XTRA)(OTCQX: XTRAF)(FRA: 0PL) (“Xtract One” or the “Company”) today announced the expanded deployment of its AI-powered security solutions with a leading U.S. airline company. Having previously installed Xtract One’s SmartGateway (“SmartGateway”) at one airport facility, the airline is now deploying an additional five Xtract One Gateways (“Gateways”), on a subscription basis, to address its growing business needs across three additional locations as part of a multi-site security initiative. This deployment builds on the Company’s initial 2023 installation and reflects the organization’s continued confidence in Xtract One’s ability to scale across airport employee environments, and enterprise environments more broadly.
Seeking TSA-level security while maintaining a frictionless experience for employees, the airline expanded its partnership with Xtract One in response to increased security demands across aviation environments, where operators are under pressure to strengthen screening protocols and streamline operations. This deployment will span three additional locations, with further expansion potential as TSA-driven mandates require all employees be screened. Xtract One’s previous work with the TSA to assess the viability of the solution for its intended use further positions the Company to support the airline’s broader, system-wide adoption over time.
Beyond securing daily operations, Xtract One has showcased efficacy by supporting the airline’s large-scale employee events, including deployments across airport parking areas hosting up to 40,000 attendees. These flexible, real-word applications highlight Gateway’s ability to perform reliably across both permanent installations and high-volume, temporary environments.
“The expansion of this partnership reflects a broader shift we’re seeing across the aviation sector, where organizations are rethinking legacy security infrastructure in response to a more complex and increasingly dynamic threat landscape,” said Peter Evans, CEO of Xtract One. “Customers are prioritizing solutions that can scale across locations while maintaining throughput and the user experience. As regulatory expectations increase, including the recent TSA requirement to now screen airport employees, we believe Xtract One is well-positioned to address that demand with a solution designed for scalability, intelligence, and operational efficiency. Continued growth with such a major player in the U.S. airline industry reinforces our ability to land, expand, and support enterprise-wide deployments over time.”
Xtract One Gateway is purpose-built for high-traffic environments, delivering fast, accurate weapons detection without requiring individuals to remove personal items. Using advanced AI-powered, multi-sensor technology, the system enables a frictionless screening experience while maintaining high levels of accuracy and operational efficiency. Balancing powerful threat detection and classification with unobtrusive screening that respects individuals’ privacy, Gateway streamlines entry and operational processes, allowing for quicker ingress delivered with the highest safety standards in mind.
