Ayfie International ASA (OSE: AIX), already delivering advanced AI capabilities
to more than 10 Norwegian municipalities, announces that Halden Municipality has
selected Ayfie through a competitive tender process. The contract, representing
an annual recurring revenue of over NOK 270,000, brings enterprise-wide AI
access to all municipal employees.

The solution is already fully operational and actively used by Halden
Municipality employees. It enables instant access to organizational knowledge
using advanced artificial intelligence technology, with all authorized employees
leveraging the latest information while maintaining strict access controls and
data security within their infrastructure. A key factor in Halden's decision was
maximizing the value of taxpayer resources by enhancing municipal services and
operational efficiency through AI.

"Halden Municipality shows remarkable foresight by making AI capabilities
accessible to their entire workforce," said Herman Sjøberg, CEO of Ayfie
International. "Their commitment to enhancing services and optimizing taxpayer
resources through innovative technology sets a strong example for others. We're
witnessing strong momentum in the public sector's adoption of secure AI
solutions as municipalities strive to keep pace with technological
advancements."

This initial implementation represents the foundation for Halden's AI
capabilities. Additional enterprise applications and data sources can be
integrated with Ayfie's platform over time, expanding both the utility for
Halden and the scope of the partnership.

The successful deployment demonstrates how local governments can rapidly and
securely implement AI technology while maintaining full control over
their sensitive data.
