      About Light AI Inc. (CBOE CA: ALGO / FSE: 0HC / OTCQB: OHCFF)

      Light AI Inc. is a healthcare technology company focused on developing artificial intelligence-powered Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) solutions designed to support rapid, accessible clinical assessment at the point of care.

      The Company's core technology, Light AI QuickScan™, is a device-agnostic software platform that applies proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms to medical images to provide healthcare professionals with actionable clinical information within seconds. The QuickScan™ platform is designed to operate across compatible imaging and computing hardware, providing flexibility for integration into a range of healthcare devices, clinical workflows and care settings without dependence on a single proprietary hardware platform.

      The first product being brought to market on the platform, Light AI QuickScan™ Strep A, uses artificial intelligence to analyze images of the throat and provide clinical decision support regarding the likelihood of Group A Streptococcus (GAS) pharyngitis. QuickScan™ Strep A is designed to provide a rapid, non-invasive assessment without requiring a throat swab or laboratory test as part of the QuickScan analysis.

      Light AI is developing the QuickScan™ platform with the potential to support additional medical conditions and clinical applications over time. The Company's long-term vision is to combine its QuickScan™ SaMD platform, advanced imaging, and cloud-based artificial intelligence to create a scalable "Digital Clinical Lab" capable of delivering rapid and accessible clinical insights across multiple diseases and conditions.

      In pre-FDA validation studies, Light AI's Strep A algorithm demonstrated 96.57% accuracy in differentiating between viral and bacterial pharyngitis and achieved a Negative Predictive Value of 100% for Group A Streptococcus. Viral and GAS pharyngitis affect hundreds of millions of people globally each year, and untreated GAS infection can result in serious complications, including rheumatic heart disease.

      Light AI believes its device-agnostic software architecture and artificial intelligence platform have the potential to expand access to rapid clinical decision support across diverse healthcare environments worldwide.
