For more information on Knightscope, Inc. download and review the Offering Circular. The Offering Circular should be reviewed before making an investment decision.
We are targeting listing on Nasdaq at the end of January 2022. In order to do that and include as many subscribers as possible in the closing, we will stop accepting subscriptions at 8:59pm PST on 14 January 2022. We will then take the time with the broker-dealers to clear and settle subscriptions into escrow ahead of the listing itself.

*subject to meeting NASDAQ listing requirements
Knightscope is reimagining public safety in a time where we believe our nation needs it the most. With our line of American-made Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs), we’re fulfilling our long term commitment to provide the safest possible environments to our country.
Knightscope’s ASRs have over 1,000,000 hours of field operation to date. With a documented and actively-growing record of successful crime prevention, we are taking the necessary steps to build on this momentum.
Chapter Two of Knightscope's Story is Happening Now
Knightscope is focused on the long-term outcomes of the company and we believe listing on the NASDAQ is an important part of our plan.
The Problem
New Security Tools Are Desperately Needed
We believe that there is a clear and immediate need to address the safety of our communities. By some estimates, the negative economic impact of crime is now over $2+ trillion dollars annually.
We believe that there are simply not enough resources to manually and accurately monitor for threats at all times. Innovation is needed, and Knightscope is taking actionable steps to address these issues right now.
The Solution
Knightscope is the Missing Complement to Your Security Force
Knightscope builds Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs) to help prevent crime and make public spaces safer. Fitted with eye-level 360° cameras, thermal scanning, public address announcements, and a bevy of other features, our ASRs work in tandem with humans to provide law enforcement officers and security guards unprecedented situational awareness.
Each ASR is designed to enhance the work of existing security operations, not replace them. Combined with the “Knightscope Security Operations Center” (KSOC), our browser-based user interface, teams will have a streamlined monitoring system at their fingertips.
THE MARKET
We are Answering Demand With Innovation
The global security market is projected to expand at over 10% per year, and reach over $165B by 2025. As public safety becomes more top of mind, Knightscope believes it is uniquely situated at the cross-section of multiple key elements of the security market, like video analytics, which was valued at $1.6B in its own right.
We’ve been hard at work on the fifth-generation of the K5 ASR. Outfitted with new hardware, firmware, and electrical systems, our Version 5.0 K5 is slated for release in 2022.
We’re also currently focusing our efforts on bringing the K7 ASR concept to reality. Created for rugged, multi-terrain applications, this model combines the worlds of autonomous tech, robotics, artificial intelligence, and electric vehicles.
Finally - the next generation of our stationary K1 machine is in the works. Sporting a sleek new design, we’re excited to talk more about this new release soon.
Our TRACTION
Providing Effective Results
Our intent to publicly list on the NASDAQ would not have been possible without the continued support of our investors.
We’re excited to continue building on the success of the 1,000,000+ hours of field operation that the Knightscope ASRs have logged.
Knightscope clients have already documented some of their amazing wins, proving that our new capabilities are already providing effective results.
After a year of proven benefit for local police, in July of 2021 the Huntington Park City Council unanimously decided to extend their Knightscope contract by two years.
Why Invest
Long Knightscope, Short The Criminals
These are serious times requiring serious technology. Our country’s public safety requires changes to be made - today.
With your kind, gracious, and unwavering support, we’re working to make a massive dent in the problem and we’re off to a good start. Our investors have been vital to writing the first chapter in our history. As we work to meet the NASDAQ listing requirements, let the second chapter begin!

FAQS
With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000 are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, they are limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
StartEngine makes it easy to invest using your retirement funds. You can open a self-directed IRA account through StartEngine. To get started, simply visit our IRA page for more information and step-by-step instructions.
Already have a self-directed IRA with another provider? You can still invest on StartEngine, but please note that the process will be manual and may take longer to complete.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancellation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancellation policy. You may find the company’s cancellation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to be sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
