(NASDAQ:AIMD) stock surged 50% after the AI-powered scent digitization company announced a three-year subscription-based order valued at $2.1 million with ASE Technology Holding Co (NYSE:ASX)., Ltd., the world’s largest semiconductor assembly and test services provider.
The agreement represents Ainos’ first commercial success of its proprietary AI Nose platform in semiconductor manufacturing. The company will deploy 1,400 AI Nose units across ASEH’s three major manufacturing sites in Taiwan, launching its SmellTech-as-a-Service model to enhance ASEH’s smart manufacturing initiatives.
This milestone marks the first revenue-generating order for AI Nose in the industrial market and follows its initial revenue in the senior care sector during the first quarter of 2025. The deployment is part of Ainos’ previously announced expanded strategic partnership with ASEH.
"We’re executing with speed and precision," said Eddy Tsai, Chairman and CEO of Ainos. "This initial deployment proves AI Nose’s real-world value-and it’s just the beginning."
The company is also advancing pilot deployments at seven sites in Japan with robotics partner ugo, Inc., while progressing multi-site rollouts with Kenmec and Solomon in Taiwan.
According to Ainos, the global electronic nose market is projected to grow from $29.8 billion in 2025 to $76.5 billion by 2032, with industrial monitoring leading demand. The company positions AI Nose as a trainable AI platform capable of digitizing scent into machine-readable Smell ID data, powered by its proprietary smell language model.
