Commercial Launch Generates Rapid Growth in Platform Registrations, Global Audience Reach and Customer Engagement Within the First Weeks of Availability

Torrance, Calif., July 14, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OFA Group Inc. (NASDAQ: OFAL) (“OFA Group,” “OFA,” or the “Company”), an integrated architecture, engineering and technology company, today announced strong early commercial validation for QikBIM, its proprietary artificial intelligence (“AI”) Building Information Modeling (“BIM”) platform, following its public commercial launch approximately two weeks ago.

Within only weeks of launch, QikBIM has begun attracting users across multiple countries while establishing measurable commercial traction through growing platform registrations, expanding website traffic, and increasing engagement from architecture, engineering and construction (“AEC”) professionals. Management believes these early operating metrics provide meaningful validation of market demand for AI-powered BIM automation and reinforce the Company's long-term strategy of building one of the industry's next-generation intelligent design platforms.

Early Commercial Momentum Continues to Accelerate

Since opening QikBIM for public access, the Company has continued to establish new highs across key operating metrics. Highlights include:

  • 45,700+ cumulative Instagram impressions, growing from zero prior to launch;
  • 25,418 views during Week 3, representing 42.7% week-over-week growth;
  • 12,274 unique accounts reached;
  • 97.2% of all content views originated from non-followers, demonstrating that QikBIM continues expanding well beyond OFA Group's existing audience and reaching entirely new prospective users;
  • 633 unique website visitors, representing more than 830% growth from launch week;
  • 725 website sessions;
  • 23 registered QikBIM users, representing 75% growth compared with the previous reporting period; and
  • Audience engagement spanning six countries reflecting growing international awareness of the platform.

Management believes the continued acceleration in new user discovery, website engagement and platform registrations reflects increasing industry awareness of AI-driven BIM workflow automation.

Growing Customer Interest and Engagement

The Company's commercialization strategy is focused on reaching architecture, engineering and construction professionals rather than broad consumer audiences. The initial launch campaign generated:

  • 42,820 cumulative video views;
  • 20,315 professionals reached;
  • 906 website visits;
  • Strong engagement through saves, shares, comments and likes; and
  • “Save” becoming the most common engagement action—an indicator that professionals are bookmarking QikBIM for future evaluation and project consideration.

Management believes these engagement patterns demonstrate meaningful early customer interest and growing awareness among potential enterprise users.

AI Search Platforms Emerging as a New Discovery Channel

The Company has also begun observing an emerging trend that management believes could become increasingly important for enterprise software companies. During the latest reporting period:

  • 161 discovery events originated from ChatGPT-related searches; and
  • Additional AI-assisted user interactions occurred directly on the QikBIM platform.

As professionals increasingly utilize generative AI to identify software solutions, OFA Group believes AI-powered discovery platforms may become an increasingly valuable source of highly targeted customer acquisition.

Expanding International Visibility

Interest in QikBIM continues to expand internationally. Current digital traffic includes users from the United States, Hong Kong, the United Kingdom, Germany, India and Italy, reflecting growing awareness across major global architecture and engineering markets.

Management believes these early international engagement metrics support the Company's long-term objective of commercializing QikBIM as a globally accessible AI platform for the AEC industry.

Management Commentary

Larry Wong, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of OFA Group, commented:

“Launching a new enterprise AI platform is ultimately about validating real market demand, and we are extremely encouraged by the momentum QikBIM has achieved within just a few weeks of commercialization.

“What excites us most is not simply the growth in traffic or digital engagement, but the quality of that engagement. Nearly 97% of our recent audience consists of professionals who had never previously interacted with OFA Group. That tells us QikBIM is successfully reaching entirely new markets and introducing our technology to a rapidly expanding audience.

“We are also encouraged to see users increasingly discovering QikBIM through generative AI platforms. We believe AI-powered search will fundamentally change how enterprise software is discovered, evaluated and adopted over the coming years.

“While we remain at the beginning of our commercialization journey, these early operating metrics provide encouraging evidence that QikBIM is gaining meaningful market recognition. As we continue expanding enterprise functionality, strategic partnerships and customer outreach, we believe QikBIM has the potential to become a leading AI-powered BIM solution serving architecture, engineering and construction professionals worldwide.”

Executing the Next Phase of Commercialization

Building upon its successful launch, OFA Group intends to accelerate commercialization through:

  • Expanding digital marketing campaigns targeting architecture and engineering firms;
  • Releasing additional product demonstrations and customer case studies;
  • Expanding enterprise customer outreach;
  • Continuing rapid product enhancements driven by customer feedback;
  • Developing strategic industry partnerships; and
  • Expanding QikBIM's international market presence.

Management will continue monitoring platform registrations, customer engagement, conversion metrics and enterprise adoption as commercialization progresses.
