Safe Pro Signs MOUs with Drone Industry Leaders Ondas Holdings and Unusual Machines to Collaborate on AI-Powered Computer Vision Technologies
Agreements Follow Strategic Investment into Safe Pro Group to Accelerate Adoption of Drone-Based AI Technology by the U.S. Defense and into Global Commercial Markets
Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ:SPAI) ("Safe Pro" or the "Company"), a leader in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered defense and security solutions, today announced that it has entered into Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) with Ondas Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:ONDS) (Ondas) and Unusual Machines Inc. (NYSE:UMAC) (Unusual Machines), leaders in the U.S. drone industry.
Under the MOUs, the Companies will seek to collaborate on the development and integration of Company's patented AI-powered drone imagery analysis and computer vision technologies into their respective hardware and software offerings. This includes the Company's patented Safe Pro Object Threat Detection (SPOTD) technology which is designed to rapidly detect over 150 different kinds of small, hard-to-spot threats including landmines, anti-personnel mines, cluster munitions and unexploded ordnance. Collectively, these new offering could provide enhanced support for end-user customers across the U.S. Government and military, as well as in public safety, commercial and global humanitarian markets. These agreements follow Ondas' and Unusual Machines' strategic investments into Safe Pro Group completed on August 21, 2025.
The Ondas and Unusual Machines collaboration is expected to include:
- Supporting Ondas' ecosystem of autonomous commercial, defense, and security drone platforms for aerial intelligence with enhanced AI-powered small object and threat detection capabilities for organizations responsible for the protection of sensitive locations, populations, and critical infrastructure. Expanded marketing efforts will focus on the U.S. Department of Defense, leveraging existing Army engagements, and NATO partners, as well as deepening SafePro's footprint in Ukraine, where the technology has already been battle-tested in active minefield environments.
- Enhancing Unusual Machine's FPV (first-person view) drone offerings through seamless integration of Safe Pro's real-time SPOTD threat detection data with its Aura Cameras and HDO+ Goggles solutions, enhancing the visual imagery provided to enterprise and government end users.
Whether deployed on the edge in real-time powered by SPOTD NODE or leveraging Amazon Web Services (AWS) on the cloud (SpotlightAITM), the Company's patented technology can scale globally, offering solutions for rapid battlefield analysis as well as supporting large-scale commercial and humanitarian demining operations. Powering the Company's SPOTD technology, Safe Pro's unique real-world datasets include high-resolution drone imagery and GPS-tagged geospatial data encompassing over 1.78 million drone images analyzed to date, and 31,600+ threats identified across 7,819 hectares (19,321 acres) in Ukraine.

By combining our strengths, we are not just advancing technology—we're empowering customers to accomplish their most critical missions while safeguarding civilian lives."
Eric Brock, Chairman and CEO of Ondas Holdings, stated: "Safe Pro's AI-powered computer vision technology has already proven its capabilities on the battlefield of Ukraine, an accomplishment that clearly demonstrates its potential to meet the needs of demanding customers in the military and commercial markets. We believe that Safe Pro's technology has the potential to greatly contribute to Ondas' growing ecosystem of unique drone-based solutions and we look forward to working closely with their team in the weeks and months ahead."
Dr. Allan Evans, Chairman and CEO of Unusual Machines, added: "Our goal is to see the American drone ecosystem emerge as a global powerhouse. Collaboration amongst companies like ours and Safe Pro is a key step toward us collectively achieving that goal. In this instance, integrating cameras with their patented AI-powered drone imagery analysis technology makes an ideal solution for removing landmines in Ukraine or helping to protect our soldiers from explosive threats on the battlefield. Collectively, we can start to export this technology and bring much needed U.S.-produced drone and AI technologies to the global market."
