Arizona Tribune - KIDZ AI Enters into $44.6 Million Definitive GPU Compute Services Agreement with Canopy Wave

NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / July 21, 2026 / KIDZ AI Inc. (NASDAQ:KIDZ)(NASDAQ:KIDZW) ("KIDZ AI" or the "Company"), a leading provider of live online learning and AI-powered education solutions, today announced that it has entered into a definitive 60-month enterprise AI compute services agreement with Canopy Wave, Inc., with an aggregate contract value of $44.6 million. The agreement is subject to the Company's subsidiary placing a non-cancellable order for the GPU servers necessary to perform its services under the agreement.

Canopy Wave is a leading AI inference platform specializing in the deployment of top-tier open models, uniquely optimized to run affordable AI breakthroughs - including Moonshot AI's 2.8-trillion-parameter Kimi K3 and DeepSeek architectures - with industry-leading cost efficiency.

Under the terms of the agreement, KIDZ AI's wholly owned subsidiary, Catalyst Compute LLC, will order and deploy a dedicated cluster of 256 NVIDIA HGX B300 GPUs across 32 specialized GPU nodes, each equipped with dual Intel Xeon 6776P processors, 4TB of DDR5 memory, and ultra-fast 800Gb/s InfiniBand interconnectivity.

A DIFFERENTIATED NEOCLOUD MODEL

The agreement reflects how KIDZ AI seeks to differentiate its neocloud model from the broader field of GPU cloud providers: rather than deploying merchant capacity and competing on raw scale, the Company pairs infrastructure deployments with long-term contracted enterprise demand and purpose-builds for what it believes is one of the fastest-growing segments of the market - high-throughput, cost-efficient inference on open-weight frontier models.

The Company believes recent market developments support this positioning. Open-weight models such as Kimi K3 have meaningfully narrowed the capability gap with leading proprietary models at substantially lower token cost, and KIDZ AI expects economic efficiency - cost per token, throughput, latency, and utilization - to become an increasingly important competitive differentiator as affordable AI expands the addressable market for compute. Canopy Wave's capabilities across optimized inference, AI cloud services, and enterprise-grade GPU infrastructure align KIDZ AI with demand-side inference workloads, and the Company believes the partnership can serve as a repeatable template for future deployments.

MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY

"Today's agreement is just the beginning of our journey with KIDZ AI," said Tao Zhang, Chief Executive Officer of Canopy Wave. "We look forward to helping KIDZ AI scale additional GPU clusters and turn this infrastructure into powerful token factories for the enterprise AI market. By combining KIDZ AI's next-generation compute platform with Canopy Wave's optimized inference capabilities, we believe we can deliver secure, cost-efficient, enterprise-grade AI inference services with strong data privacy protections to enterprises across the United States."

"This milestone contract is an important step in KIDZ AI's evolution into a broader AI technology and infrastructure platform," said Stephanie Luo, Chief Executive Officer of KIDZ AI. "What we believe sets our neocloud model apart is pairing next-generation computing infrastructure with long-term contracted enterprise demand - a scalable commercial foundation rather than speculative capacity, and a model we aim to repeat across future deployments and partnerships."

"Cost-efficient open-weight models such as DeepSeek and Kimi are shifting the AI market from a race defined by raw scale to one increasingly defined by economic efficiency," Luo continued. "Canopy Wave's strength in optimized inference aligns directly with this shift, and we believe affordable AI will be one of the most powerful structural forces driving the next phase of adoption."
