Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT) has entered 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 Federal Communications Commission approval.
The technology enables interactive, two-way audience engagement through sound-triggered mobile communications, bridging digital and physical experiences. According to Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer Sonia Choi, who initiated the collaboration, 99.7 FM's adoption sets the stage for new revenue creation and expanded advertising inventory. This deployment advances Datavault AI's expansion across the $28.75 billion U.S. radio advertising market.
Datavault AI's technology suite includes WiSA, ADIO and Sumerian patented technologies featuring foundational spatial and multichannel wireless HD sound transmission technologies with intellectual property covering audio timing, synchronization and multi-channel interference cancellation. The company's cloud-based platform provides comprehensive solutions serving multiple industries, including high-performance computing software licensing for sports and entertainment, events and venues, biotech, education, fintech, real estate, healthcare, and energy sectors.
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 artificial intelligence with integrity.

This partnership represents a significant milestone for inaudible data transmission technology, potentially transforming how radio broadcasters interact with audiences and monetize content. The technology could enable new forms of interactive advertising, real-time audience feedback, and enhanced listener engagement through standard radio broadcasts without requiring additional hardware or infrastructure changes for consumers.
The commercial deployment with 99.7 FM serves as a critical test case for broader industry adoption, demonstrating how traditional broadcast media can integrate cutting-edge AI and data transmission technologies to remain competitive in an increasingly digital landscape. Success in this pilot could prompt similar implementations across the radio industry, creating new revenue streams while providing listeners with enhanced interactive experiences.
