Datavault AI Inc. has announced a strategic partnership with Southwest U.S. radio station 99.7 FM to commercialize its patented ADIO Inaudible Tones technology, representing the first mainstream broadcast application of this data-over-sound innovation. The one-year pilot program will integrate Datavault's ADIO and Data Vault data monetization services into 99.7 FM's live events and advertising platforms, pending FCC approval.
The technology enables interactive, two-way audience engagement through sound-triggered mobile communications, bridging digital and physical experiences. According to Co-Founder and CMO Sonia Choi, who initiated the collaboration, 99.7 FM's adoption sets the stage for new revenue creation and expanded advertising inventory. This deployment represents a significant advancement in Datavault AI's expansion across the $28.75 billion U.S. radio advertising market.
Datavault AI's cloud-based platform provides comprehensive solutions through its Acoustic Science and Data Science Divisions. The Acoustic Science Division features WiSA, ADIO and Sumerian patented technologies and industry-first foundational spatial and multichannel wireless HD sound transmission technologies with IP covering audio timing, synchronization and multi-channel interference cancellation. The company's technology suite offers AI and Machine Learning automation, third-party integration, detailed analytics, marketing automation and advertising monitoring.
The Data Science Division leverages Web 3.0 and high-performance computing to provide solutions for experiential data perception, valuation and secure monetization. The Information Data Exchange enables Digital Twins and licensing of name, image, and likeness by securely attaching physical real-world objects to immutable metadata objects, fostering responsible AI with integrity.
This partnership represents a significant milestone in the commercialization of inaudible data transmission technology for broadcast media. The pilot program's success could pave the way for broader adoption across the radio industry and potentially other audio-based media platforms, creating new opportunities for audience interaction and data-driven advertising solutions in traditional broadcast environments. The technology's ability to bridge physical and digital experiences through sound-based communication opens new avenues for targeted advertising and real-time audience engagement metrics.
