Knightscope, Inc. Strongly Positioned for Growth in U.S. Security Market Anticipated to Exceed $53.65 Billion by 2025

  • Knightscope, Inc. is positioned to disrupt the security market with unique technology and artificial intelligence capabilities
  • Autonomous security robots currently on the market from Knightscope require no human intervention and recharge themselves
  • The K5 model has exceeded the 1 million operational hour mark, with three winters under its belt (still going strong)
The scene begins at an undisclosed airport in Texas. The Knightscope K5 makes its way onto the screen, landing safely on the airstrip. Despite the dramatization in the YouTube ad, and the mention that K5 robots do not have flying capabilities (for now, at least), the message is clear: Knightscope’s autonomous security robots (“ASR”) are taking off (https://ibn.fm/v3DMw). This is just one of several short promotional videos designed to illustrate the versatility and multiple uses of Knightscope’s innovative security solutions. Founded in Mountain View, California, in 2013, Knightscope is a leader in the development of autonomous security capabilities – including the K5 model featured in the airport security video. The Knightscope K5 was primarily designed to be an outdoor autonomously recharging security technology that runs 24/7. Designed for securing large outdoor areas, the K5 has already been operated for over 1 million hours in the field, including now operating in its 4th winter. The Knightscope K5 is great for deployment in a variety of locations besides airports, including but not limited to hospitals, police departments, logistics facilities, commercial properties, data centers, parking structures, municipalities, warehouses, stadiums, casinos, gas stations and more. The K5 features traveling speeds of up to 3 mph and can be utilized in indoor and outdoor settings. Its versatile design makes it great for any of the venues mentioned. The K5 weighs almost 400 pounds and stands over five-feet tall, making it a true force to be reckoned with as a form of physical deterrence. Overall, the ASR models in circulation from Knightscope are on target to disrupt the security industry with the unique technology that combines automated robot power with artificial intelligence. Knightscope has positioned itself as a leading presence in a global security market that is expected to reach $1.67 trillion by 2025, as indicated in a new report from Grand View Research, Inc. The market is set to expand at a CAGR of 10.3%, resulting in substantial growth (https://ibn.fm/Iz0EB). North America, with an anticipated market size of $53.15 billion, is expected to lead this global market. And Knightscope is in the center of this market, leading the way with autonomous security straight from the Silicon Valley. Knightscope’s other ASRs include the award-winning K1 stationary indoor/outdoor model, the K3 indoor ASR, and more in development – all integrated with the Knightscope Security Operations Center, an intuitive platform that features real-time data feeds to better secure the places where people work, study or visit. The Knightscope Security Operations Center provides multiple features that include, among others:
  • Force multiplying physical deterrence
  • 360-degree HD video streaming
  • People detection
  • Facial recognition
  • Automatic license plate recognition
  • Thermal anomaly detection
  • Automatic signal detection
  • Autonomous charging
  • Two-way intercom system
The company’s ASRs have already assisted in multiple crime-fighting operations, including robbery to hit-and-runs (and everything in between). The machine-embedded thermal scanning capabilities even aided in the prevention of a major fire breaking out. If you want to learn more about the crime-fighting capabilities of Knightscope’s proprietary ASRs, check out www.KnightsScope.com/crime for more details. As of December 2020, Knightscope had more than 17,000 investors backing its technologies.

CannAssist International Corp. (CNSC) Flagship Brand Approved, Included by Powerful Online Platform

  • Acceptance of Xceptol products on RangeMe website new revenue source, increasing SKUs and access to retailers
  • RangeMe enables retail buyers to discover innovative, emerging products; empowers suppliers to manage, grow their brands
  • CannAssist developed Xceptol brand to offer effective health and wellness solutions without side effects
CannAssist International (OTCQB: CNSC) has announced that its flagship brand — Xceptol — has been approved and included by the distribution website RangeMe (https://ibn.fm/c55wi). Xceptol’s inclusion on the website means increasing SKUs, access to more than 10,000 retailers, and a significant new revenue source for CNSC. “This is exciting news for us on many fronts,” said CannAssist CEO Mark Palumbo. “A process estimated to take weeks was accomplished in a few days — a testament, I feel, to the quality of the Xceptol brand. Also gratifying is being included on the RangeMe website, a significant portal for major retailers to find products for their customers.” RangeMe is an online platform that enables retail buyers to efficiently discover innovative and emerging products while empowering suppliers to manage and grow their brands with the tools, insights, and services they need. In the announcement, CNSC noted that RangeMe had added Xceptol drops and capsules to the Xceptol pain-cream products that are available on the RangeMe platform. The inclusion brings the number of available Xceptol SKUs on RangeMe to 10, with additional SKUs coming in Q1 2021. RangeMe’s broad network creates a significant new revenue source for CannAssist International. CannAssist developed its exclusive Xceptol brand, along with CiBiDinol or water-compatible cannabidiol, with the objective of offering powerful health and wellness solutions without troublesome side effects (https://ibn.fm/cdrAF). Team members had extensive experience and background with science, health care and conventional pharmaceutical therapies and recognized the need for a different approach to treatment of acute and chronic pain. CannAssist experts began exploring ways to solve inherent issues with CBD delivery and bioavailability — CiBiDinol and the Xceptol brand are the result. Xceptol products feature CiBiDinol and offer better absorption than oil-based products currently available. CiBiDinol provides CBD in a format that is more in line with the body’s natural bioactivity and is specifically designed to tackle issues with oil-soluble CBD molecules, such as delivery, bioavailability and short shelf-life. Xceptol products also offer more predictable potency. CNSC’s Xceptol Pain Cream is a CBD product with industry-defining reliability and compliance. Possessing a National Drug Code (“NDC”), the highest quality ingredients and the game-changing CiBiDinol, the pain cream is fast gaining attention in the pain-treatment space and is leading the way for other Xceptol products to follow. CannAssist believes Xceptol represents the next step for CBD products. Established in 2017, CannAssist is headquartered in San Diego County, California, and is the owner of Xceptor Labs, a biotechnological pharmaceutical and wellness company. CannAssist is currently focused on marketing its Xceptol brand, which is why the RangeMe announcement is so significant.

Friendable Inc. (FDBL) Fan Pass Forges Ahead as Artists Race for Digital Engagement with Fans

  • Digital drives key trends that will shape entertainment industry, according to “Variety” article
  • Live streaming, virtual engagement, personal interaction between artists and fans are critical factors
  • Fan Pass to thrive as company develops solutions that match trends
Digital technology is proving itself indispensable in both pandemic and post-pandemic environments, according to a recent “Variety” article  (https://ibn.fm/WTNec). That prediction paints the ideal setting for Friendable (OTC: FDBL) and it’s Fan Pass platform to excel in the years to come. According to the article, titled “10 Predictions for Media & Entertainment in 2021,” as the pandemic shuttered physical venues and live events, artists and celebrities who embraced digital technology early to remain connected to their fan base were successful in preserving — and even increasing — their income. However, the article notes that virtual engagement with fans around the world goes beyond live streaming of music to include direct messaging with celebrities and other forms of more personal interaction between fans and artists. The massive yet largely untapped market of fans willing to spend to connect with their favorite celebrities may prove essential even after the pandemic when the world returns to a more physical way of functioning than today. The new generation of solutions that augments rather than replaces the live, real-world performances will be beneficial to artists both as a hedge against future pandemic threats and as a tool to enhance their interactions with fans during more normal times, the article predicts. The article also emphasizes the impact of quarantine on the rapid adoption and wide acceptance of live streaming and other forms of technology-enabled remote engagement and collaboration. Digital technology further enhances this new reality with the development of industry-specific and optimized solutions for virtual creation, collaboration, and production tools, offering new solutions for enhancing virtual engagement. As a mobile technology and marketing company focused on connecting and engaging users through its proprietary mobile and desktop application, Friendable launched Fan Pass to help artists engage with their fans around the world and earn revenue in the pandemic environment that prevented live, in-person events. The platform offers a livestreaming service, allowing music artists to create exclusive channels for offering their content to the fans. Additionally, the Fan Pass team will provide exclusive VIP experiences, interviews and behind-the-scenes content featuring the platform’s favorite artists. Although vaccines make re-opening appear more likely than ever before, certain aspects of the entertainment industry are forever changed as technology found its way into an increasing number of aspects of today’s world. With prolonged uncertainty surrounding the comeback of live performances, Friendable feels that the demand from artists for virtual-stage performances will grow stronger. Fan Pass offers a hybrid model relevant even after the end of the pandemic, as it can continue to build virtual relationships between artists, labels and fan communities worldwide while helping them transition back to in-person performances.

A recent NASDAQ article noting the top 10 data analytics trends for 2021 reported that the verticalization and specialization of data and analytics platforms will take on growing importance in the new year (https://ibn.fm/irU4C). SRAX (NASDAQ: SRAX), a digital marketing and consumer data-management technology company, appears to be ideally positioned to thrive within those expectations. “The need for analytics is well-established, and generic platforms that crunch data and create visualizations have matured,” reported the NASDAQ article, which was titled “What Data Analytics Will Look Like in 2021 — And How to Capitalize On It.” The article continued, noting that “enterprises will now expect a level of domain expertise and knowledge of how data and analytics can support specific use cases, and thus will gravitate towards platforms that can meet their needs more specifically with capabilities such as risk modeling for insurance, or in the case of Signals Analytics, marketing intelligence to support the product life cycles. With 80% of analytics projects failing, this will be one way that companies will be able to buck the trend.” Domain expertise and knowledge is at the core of Sequire, an investor intelligence and communications platform created by SRAX in 2019. Sequire gathers and analyzes data about stock buyers’ behaviors and trends for issuers of publicly traded companies, allowing those issuers to use audience insights to capture the interest of existing investors and attract new ones. Since its launch, Sequire has gained more than 1 million active investors and traders from 91 public companies (https://ibn.fm/eSG5s). Originally called SRAX IR, the data-management platform was renamed Sequire because that name better represents the platform’s main objective of gathering, managing and analyzing data to acquire and secure investors for publicly traded companies (https://ibn.fm/71Mus). Sequire’s intelligent technologies distinguish it from other offerings in the world of data collection and reinforce the company’s focus on innovation and uniqueness in the marketplace (https://ibn.fm/51XDL).

Sustainable Green Team Ltd. (SGTM) Stands to Benefit as US Lumber Prices Soar to Record Highs

  • Strong growth in US lumber demand has led to both record price increases – and record levels of timber, tree debris along with it
  • Sustainable Green Team has sought to introduce environmentally sustainable solution to storm, tree debris removal sector
  • Via purchase of Mulch Manufacturing in February 2020, SGTM is now able to process tree biomass it collects into premium mulch products
  • SGTM has perfected its vertically integrated business model – retailing environmentally friendly agricultural product while simultaneously getting compensated for collecting necessary raw materials
Lumber demand in the United States has never been higher; according to the National Association of Home Builders (“NAHB”), lumber prices rose by 30 percent between the onset of Hurricane Harvey in August 2017 and January 2018 on the back of strong reconstruction-driven demand (https://ibn.fm/ncKQM). However, recent price trends have put even that rally to shame. Since mid-April 2020, lumber prices have risen by over 130% (https://ibn.fm/5Oh35), with the Covid-19 pandemic driving a virtual exodus of residents from large urban metropolis’ and spurring a wave of new housing starts elsewhere in the country. However, the phenomenon has also led to record levels of timber wastage – leading to a sharp increase in the demand for the Sustainable Green Team (OTC: SGTM), a vertically integrated storm and debris removal company’s services. Sustainable Green Team has historically sought to provide a synergistic and environmentally beneficial solution to tree and storm waste disposal, in a bid to alleviate the environmental burdens which have traditionally afflicted landfills and disposal sites around the country. Accordingly, throughout its 40-year corporate tenure, SGTM has worked to cultivate a reputation as an environmentally responsible enterprise, focused on being “stewards of the environment” across all aspects of their business. A perennial challenge for SGTM and its peer companies within the sector has been to find a sustainable solution for the treatment and handling of tree debris, which has habitually been sent to local landfills and disposal sites. The company sought to address this issue through the purchase of Ohio-based Mulch Manufacturing, a leader in the field of manufacturing mulch used for agricultural and landscaping purposes in February 2020 (https://ibn.fm/A70mT). Following its merger with Mulch Manufacturing, SGTM has been able to move beyond the traditional waste disposal model, rather opting to process the collected tree biomass into a variety of organic, attractive, and next-generation mulch products which are packaged and sold on to retailers, landscapers, installers and garden centers. Sold under the Softscape(R) brand name, Mulch Manufacturing’s mulch and landscaping products allow water and air to penetrate soil and roots, a vital function to promote plant health and growth (https://ibn.fm/F2qid). SGTM has been able to translate its acquisition into ongoing commercial success, recently revealing that its subsidiary, Mulch Manufacturing Inc., had been awarded contracts to supply The Kroger Co. and Alimentation Couch-Tard’s Circle K subsidiary with premium grade organic mulch products over the course of 2021 (https://ibn.fm/SeD5q). In addition to its efforts in recycling tree and storm waste into commercialized mulch products, the Sustainable Green Team has recently gained the International Play Equipment Manufacturers Association (“IPEMA”) certification to commence recycling waste into playground surfacing material. With demand for playground surfacing material rapidly rising as a result of growing demand from the likes of schools, commercial athletic facilities and recreational spaces, SGTM’s new product line is expected to help the company tap into a market which is estimated to rise to a value of over $5.8 billion by the end of 2026, a 150% increase from 2017’s $3.7 billion (https://ibn.fm/OlJEM). As environmental concerns continue to build across the world, the need to find sustainable solutions within the tree and debris management sector has gained increased prominence. Through its vertically integrated structure, SGTM has now managed to achieve the rarest goal of them all – building a sustainable and commercially viable business in an increasingly essential sector of the economy.

Pure Extracts Technologies (CSE: PULL) Draws Out Expansion Plans in Anticipation of Regulatory Changes Within Mushroom Sector

  • Pure Extracts Technologies Corp. has announced plans to expand, build fourth unit in dedicated towards research, development of psilocybin
  • Announcement on its expansion plans come shortly after the Company revealed it plans to apply to Health Canada for a Dealer’s License
  • Award of Dealer’s License would allow Pure Extracts to cultivate, harvest and procure controlled substances and carry out research into psychedelic compounds such as psilocybin and psilocin – paving way towards future commercialization of its product
  • The Dealer’s License application has taken on increased relevance following Health Canada’s decision to revise existing regulations to permit certain authorized uses of psilocybin-assisted psychotherapeutic treatments
Pure Extracts Technologies (CSE: PULL) (XFRA: A2QJAJ), a plant-based extraction company, recently revealed that it had begun the buildout of the fourth unit in its 10,000 square foot purpose built and British Columbia-based facility for the extraction of mushrooms in order to conduct research and development of psilocybin under a Dealer’s License (https://ibn.fm/3qqJe). The news of its expansion plans come shortly after Pure Extracts announced that the Company would be applying to Health Canada for a Dealer’s License under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (“CDSA”). The CDSA, which oversees the legal access to controlled substances and regulates the production, distribution, and sale of these substances in Canada, requires companies to obtain regulatory approval from Health Canada prior to carrying out activities within the sector (https://ibn.fm/fcgs3). Further to the announcement regarding the license application, Pure Extracts also seized the opportunity to state that the Company had retained a globally recognized operations, compliance, and regulatory firm to advise on its application to thereby ensure the Company’s adherence to the criteria put forth by the regulatory body. If obtained, the Dealer’s License would enable Pure Extracts to cultivate, harvest and procure controlled substances – including the likes of psychedelic mushrooms for the purpose of psilocybin extraction, conduct research into controlled substances and ultimately engage in the sale of these substances through a variety of different channels. “As a plant-based extractor bringing functional mushroom products to market in Q1 2021, we are very excited to be building-out our facility for our move into the controlled substances world of psychedelics,” commented Pure Extracts’ CEO Ben Nikolaevsky regarding the expansion plans. “It’s great to have space adjacent to our cutting-edge facility which is built to Health Canada standards and to know that this space will also have the same high standards of construction that Pure Extracts prides itself on.” The planned application has gained further relevance in light of Health Canada’s recent decision to revise the Special Access Programme (“SAP”) and related regulations to permit certain authorized uses of psilocybin-assisted psychotherapeutic treatments (https://ibn.fm/YA6ag). Initially announced on December 11, 2020, the revision of the SAP would effectively enable the use of mushroom extracts in a range of new medical applications—including within the complex and ever-broadening mental health sector. Pure Extracts seized the occasion to announce a collaboration with Dr. Alexander MacGregor, a distinguished Professor of Biopharmaceutics and current President of the Toronto Institute of Pharmaceutical Technology (“TIPT”) ahead of the proposed regulatory changes and the outcome of the Company’s Health Canada license application. Pure Extracts and Dr. MacGregor are set to collaborate on the development and research of optimum psilocybin extraction methodologies, thus laying the groundwork to service the needs of the rapidly advancing growth and demand within the sector. Nikolaevsky elaborated on Pure Extracts’ corporate prospects within the functional mushrooms space ahead of the anticipated regulatory changes, “The Special Access Programme may prove to be the tipping point and fundamental milestone event that eventually transforms an entire segment of the medical community’s outlook towards the treatment of mental health conditions. Here at Pure Extracts, we believe in the future of the mushroom-based drug development sector and are committed to building shareholder value based on the growing number of positive indicators for future success.” For more information, visit the company’s website at www.PureExtractsCorp.com.

CannAssist International Corp.’s (CNSC) Proprietary CiBiDinol Technology Promises to Outperform Conventional CBD Oil for Superior Pain-Relief

  • Market for CBD-based pain relief products is growing rapidly, projected to reach $20 billion by 2024
  • CNSC is a biotech company that produces fast-acting CBD products under the Xceptol brand
  • Xceptol products are formulated with exclusive technology that increases absorbability, bioavailability, shelf life
  • Third-party testing on Xceptol suggests 400% increase in skin penetration, 300% increase in gut absorption when compared to regular oil-based CBD
CannAssist International (OTCQB: CNSC), owner of Xceptor Labs, is a biotechnological pharmaceutical and wellness company marketing the Xceptol consumer brand – a line of cannabidiol (“CBD”) products that promises increased absorption, bioavailability and longer shelf life. An aging population coupled with increased chronic stress among younger people contributes to the rapidly growing market for CBD-based pain relief products—a market projected to reach $20 billion by 2024 (https://ibn.fm/eJhu9). Cannabidiol – a therapeutic component of the cannabis plant—has been studied extensively and has been shown to reduce inflammation while providing pain relief (https://ibn.fm/SsOQw). As concerns about the dangerous toxicity of mainstream pharmaceuticals like Acetaminophen continue to rise (https://ibn.fm/eVMfu), more people than ever before are turning to CBD for a gentler way to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. CiBiDinol is created using a proprietary process specifically developed to overcome numerous critical issues with oil-soluble CBD molecules. These include treatment administration, absorbability, bioavailability, and the short shelf-life of oil-based CBD products. Through the company’s proprietary process, CBD molecules are combined with penetration-enhancing cyclodextrin to cover the surface of the oil-soluble CBD molecule in a water-soluble carrier rendering it water dispersible. The resulting product has been shown to enhance absorption through the skin and gut with the overall goal of administering CBD in a way that is better aligned with the body’s natural bioactivity. Due to increased absorption, CNSC believes that its technology also offers a more potent product with greater efficacy per dose. Testing conducted via third-party services has confirmed these claims, suggesting that products created with CiBiDinol demonstrate a 400% increase in skin penetration along with a 300% increase in the rate of gut absorption when compared to regular oil-based CBD (https://ibn.fm/9S1Ys). Given the outcome of these tests, the company believes that the amount of CBD needed to achieve the targeted therapeutic effects can be reduced significantly, resulting in reduced costs for both manufacturers and consumers. Since its launch in September 2020, the Xceptol line of products includes five National Drug Codes topical pain creams utilizing ingredients registered with the FDA, capsules and tinctures. Xceptol’s CiBiDinol products are sold online through the Range Me product marketplace along with geographical distributors across established sales channels in North America.  Efforts to establish international distribution channels are underway in Central America, South America, South Africa, the EU, the UK and the Philippines. With the goal of targeting the pain-relief market, Xceptol products will be marketed through multiple social media campaigns using celebrities and former athletes associated with Freedman Sports Promotional Relations. Headquartered in San Diego, California, CannAssist was established in May 2017 with the goal of providing superior CBD products for a growing diverse market.

Brain Scientific Inc. (BRSF) Disrupts Expensive EEG Market

  • 70% of those with epilepsy could live seizure-free lives if properly diagnosed, treated
  • Machine-learning algorithms using EEG signals have potential to accurately predict epileptic seizures, allowing patient to take preventive measures
  • NeuroCap provides cost-effective solution that is disrupting EEG market

Brain Scientific (OTCQB: BRSF) is modernizing brain diagnostics with cutting-edge technology that bridges the widening gap in access to quality care. The use of artificial intelligence (“AI”) and machine learning (“ML”) is at the forefront of improving epileptic patients’ access to neurological care.

According to the World Health Organization (“WHO”), 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy (https://ibn.fm/NUPCJ). Approximately 70% of those people could live seizure-free lives if properly diagnosed and treated. Seizures are controllable. Through a pilot program, WHO discovered that by merely training primary health-care providers to diagnose and treat epilepsy, more people would have access to the treatment they need.

However, with conventional methods the necessary diagnostic equipment is cumbersome, complicated, and expensive; it also requires a trained technician to administer the tests. A more portable, simple-to-administer test is needed to reach the majority worldwide.

In the United States alone, an estimated 2.3 million adults and more than 450,000 children and adolescents live with epilepsy, with an estimated 150,000 people diagnosed each year (https://ibn.fm/bbcbW). Tragically, access to neurological care is decreasing as the need grows. In 2017, 20 states were considered neurology deserts, meaning they had less than 10 neurologists per 10,000 patients (https://ibn.fm/gnbtU).

A 2019 Advisory Board brief, titled “Navigating the Neurologist Shortage,” reported that the situation was not improving (https://ibn.fm/rP1Nc). “Providers across the country currently struggle to hire neurologists—and the problem shows no sign of abating. Estimates show that demand for neurologists in 2025 will exceed supply by 19%,” the report observed. This makes the wait for essential diagnosis and treatment long — and sometimes dangerous.

The solution may well be BRSF’s neuro-tech ecosystem. This approach consists of the disposable NeuroCap(TM) and a portable wireless NeuroEEG(TM) amplifier. These products provide rural hospitals with easy access to EEG tests.

Machine learning has improved EEG analysis and solved several challenges. Brain Scientific is working on incorporating AI and machine learning processes into the analysis, which will be able to free neurologists from the manual, tedious, and time-consuming portions of their jobs, thereby allowing them to help more patients.

According “Machine Learning for Predicting Epileptic Seizures Using EEG Signals,” which was published in February 2020, when an epileptic seizure is predicted in advance it is possible to take preventative interventions (https://ibn.fm/GXlG2). Machine learning algorithms using EEG signals have the potential to accurately predict epileptic seizures. This state-of-the-art hope for epilepsy still has problems, “cost-effective and efficient hardware implementation remains the bottleneck.”

Brain Scientific is working to disrupt the expensive EEG market. The NeuroCap and NeuroEEG are both approved by the FDA and provide economic and disposable substitutes. Trained technicians are not required to administer the tests, and a neurologist does not have to be on-site to run the analysis. A telemedicine physician can read the results in real time, eliminating long waits, high costs and the risks of exposure to communicable diseases such as COVID.

Brain Scientific is working to make neurological care accessible for all who need it.
