LYKEN.AI ANNOUNCES ALIGN WELLNESS AS NEW CLIENT FOR PAAS PLATFORM COVERING 60 CLINICS ACROSS NORTH AMERICA

Alset AI Ventures Inc.'s British Columbia-based private AI cloud computing subsidiary, Cedarcross International Technologies Inc., operating under the brand Lyken.AI, has executed a master services agreement with Align Wellness dated Aug. 20, 2025, formalizing a customer relationship that will see Lyken's platform-as-a-service (PaaS) being deployed across Align's network of over 60 physical therapy and injury rehabilitation clinics throughout North America.

Align, a managed services platform supporting more than 60 physical therapy and injury rehabilitation clinics across North America, will utilize Lyken's PaaS offering to deploy advanced AI agents designed to streamline clinic operations and improve customer acquisition. Lyken's AI-powered infrastructure will support a suite of conversational agents for Align, including high-converting sales, reception and booking automation agents -- with several now live and delivering measurable results.

The services contemplated under the agreement will be provided on a subscription basis, automatically renewing for successive one-year terms unless cancelled by either party upon at least 30 days of prior notice before the end of the then-current subscription period, or as otherwise set out in the applicable order form. For the duration of the term, Lyken will provide access to its PaaS and related professional services, as described in further detail in the agreement, for use by the network of health care and wellness clinics operated by Align. As compensation, Align will pay Lyken all applicable onboarding fees for each clinic subscribing to the services, monthly subscription fees and any applicable overage fees, as set out in the applicable order forms. No securities of Align will be issued to Lyken as compensation for its services.

"This partnership with Align Wellness demonstrates the real-world value of our PaaS strategy providing scalable, AI-native infrastructure built to power high-impact businesses," said Adam Ingrao, chief executive officer of Alset AI. "Our platform is enabling mid-market service organizations like Align to leap ahead by embedding tailored AI agents that reduce overhead, drive conversion and unlock scalable growth across their network. This is a strong signal for what's possible when modern infrastructure meets applied AI."

"The impact has been immediate," added Chris Percy, general manager of Align Wellness. "Several AI agents are already live and driving results, with more rolling out in the coming weeks. We see these high-converting reception and sales AI agents being particularly useful for mid-market service businesses like home services, dental, clinical -- any situation with high call volume and an action to take, like a sale or a booking."

Lyken's turnkey PaaS infrastructure enables organizations to rapidly launch, integrate and scale AI solutions tailored to their industry and business model. Through the Align deployment, Lyken is showcasing its unique ability to embed intelligent front-end systems directly into daily business operations.

This announcement follows recent strategic developments across Lyken's vendor and cloud ecosystem, and highlights continued commercial momentum across sectors where AI agents are driving real business impact.
