(NASDAQ: AMOD), a pioneer in AI-powered retail technology and data-driven innovation, is pleased to announce the issuance of U.S. Patent No. 12,354,121, effective July 8, 2025. This patent strengthens Alpha Modus’s intellectual property position in the fast-evolving in-store technology space, particularly in areas related to real-time shopper engagement, digital signage, and autonomous retail optimization.

AI Patent Granted

The patent, co-invented by Alpha Modus Director Michael Garel and Jim Wang, underscores the company’s long-term commitment to advancing retail intelligence platforms that bridge the gap between physical stores and AI-driven decisioning engines.

“This patent issuance not only solidifies our leadership in AI for physical retail environments, but it also directly supports our near-term deployment initiatives,” said Chris Chumas, Chief Sales Officer at Alpha Modus. “Since joining the team just over a month ago, Tim Matthews has dramatically expanded our enterprise sales pipeline—bringing in multi-million and even nine-figure opportunities that we expect to begin rolling out in the near future. The timing of this patent could not be better.”

This milestone follows a series of aggressive steps Alpha Modus has taken to enforce and monetize its robust patent portfolio, including high-profile litigation and licensing negotiations with major retailers and technology integrators.

Alpha Modus is now leveraging this newly issued patent to further strengthen its licensing discussions and protect ongoing and upcoming product rollouts with select Fortune 500 partners the Company has been engaging with.
