Austin, Texas, United States, July 22nd, 2025, FinanceWire Datavault AI Selected to Support Mission-Critical Defense and Aerospace Programs in Strategic Partnership with Burke Engineering Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT), a leader in data visualization, valuation, and monetization technologies, today announced a strategic partnership with Burke Products ('Burke'), a minority-owned Tier 1 supplier to Lockheed Martin, Raytheon Technologies, Department of Defense, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), and the Defense Logistics Agency as well as their international allied force corollaries. The partnership stands to deliver 2025 Revenues from existing contracts of Burke's that have now been subcontracted to Datavault AI and is set to scale into productized offerings into 2026. Within the partnership Datavault AI has been contracted by Burke Products to engineer and produce solutions responsive to an array of opportunities. All opportunities are managed under the contract in a case by case fashion designed to be responsive to private and public RFPs and requests made directly and through subcontracts obtained by Burke and other contracting mechanisms in place at Burke Products on a global basis. Military grade engineering, manufacturing and productization is now underway. The collaboration aims to advance defense and aerospace capabilities by integrating Datavault AI's services and proprietary data and ADIO® tone technologies with Burke's experienced manufacturing and engineering teams to accelerate productization and speed to market that Datavault AI's technologies have been designed to automate and support at scale. According to Janes, global defense spending is projected to exceed $2.2 trillion in 2025, with the U.S. defense budget alone expected to surpass $900 billion. As modernization efforts escalate, the sector is increasingly focused on secure data solutions, advanced tracking, and predictive intelligence—areas where Datavault AI is uniquely positioned to deliver for Burke new and innovative solutions that solve for advantages and forward progression of technologies in this sector. With Web 3.0 centric contributions of Datavault AI this partnership will explore technological synergies with particular emphasis on secure data management, resource tracking, and communication systems critical to mission success. Aaron Bakhshi, CEO of Burke Products, shared his outlook on the business alliance and licensing contracts now in place with Datavault AI, 'For more than 59 years, Burke Products has supplied advanced electro-mechanical components and assemblies to leading defense and aerospace partners, including Lockheed Martin, Raytheon Technologies, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, the U.S. Navy, the Defense Logistics Agency, and their allied international counterparts. As a minority-owned defense contractor committed to engineering innovation, we view this strategic alliance with Datavault AI as a transformative step toward future-ready solutions. The introduction and demonstrations of Datavault's solutions into our product portfolio marks a significant evolution in how we approach innovation across mission-critical systems.' Bakhshi continued: 'This collaboration originated from Sonia Choi's ability to identify and align mutual strategic interests, particularly around innovations in acoustic sciences and separately, the urgent challenge of addressing stolen valor—two distinct areas where Datavault AI's platform provides an elegant and effective solution. Additionally, our shared vision around the scalable deployment of Digital Twin technologies further strengthens the foundation of this partnership and unlocks significant future potential. Her skill in connecting advanced technology to real-world defense applications and viable business models was instrumental in forming this agreement. It resonates with me, as it reflects the executive vision and innovation that Burke Products strives to champion across all of our initiatives. We believe the work underway with Datavault AI will deliver measurable value to our clients and help redefine operational standards across multiple defense verticals with new Web 3.0 solutions.' The first phase will integrate Datavault AI's acoustic sciences services and products, including patented ADIO® tone technology, into Burke's pre-existing systems. Future phases may expand into integrating Datavault AI's proprietary data solutions for digital twin modeling, predictive analytics, inventory logistics and management as well as blockchain-based tools to secure supply chains and authenticate critical components throughout their lifecycle. 'It has been an honor to work with and partner alongside Aaron Bakhshi and Burke Products to help extend Datavault AI's orchestrated blend of talent and technological footprint into the defense sector,' said Sonia Choi, Co-Founder and CMO of Datavault AI and Lead Principal Investigator on a privately funded Strategic Partnership Project facilitated through the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory. 'Burke Products has a rare and profound legacy of combining engineering precision with innovation—qualities that immediately resonated with our shared commitment to mission-critical performance. We are both builders and systems thinkers, capable of harnessing our technologies to automate high-value solutions in environments defined by complexity and zero tolerance for error. By leveraging our advanced data and acoustic sciences to solve real-world problems and by aligning our ecosystems together, we're laying the groundwork for scalable, American-built solutions. This marks a pivotal step and underscores Datavault AI's strategic entry into, and sustained relevance within, modern defense infrastructure,' stated Sonia Choi. As the defense and aerospace sectors rapidly evolve, this partnership marks a significant milestone. With a focus on security, precision, and next-gen data integration, Datavault AI and Burke Products are working together to shape the future of national defense technology. Nathaniel T. Bradley, Co-Founder and CEO of Datavault AI, asserted: ' This collaboration marks an international milestone of a scale we couldn't have anticipated when we first founded the company. Sonia Choi has been diligently building toward this moment for years, and her ability to identify high-impact applications for Datavault AI's technologies—while guiding our team through the execution with focus and discipline—has been exceptional. Through her vision and leadership, we've reached a breakthrough that aligns seamlessly across our VerifyU, ADIO®, High Performance Computing, WiSA and Datavault platforms, in concert with Burke Products' expansive capabilities, trusted network, and precision-driven engineering excellence.'

Datavault AI Inks Strategic Licensing Agreement with GFT Rewards for ADIO-Enabled Mobile Rewards with Expected Revenue in Q3'25
BEAVERTON, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT), a leader in AI-driven data experience, valuation and monetization, today announced a strategic licensing agreement with GFT Rewards to deploy ADIO®-enabled, Web 3 mobile rewards across major distribution channels from airports and retail chains to movie exhibitors, college campuses and Ride-Hailing networks. GFT Rewards is a pioneer in web 3 promotions and rewards, transforming how shoppers discover and redeem offers across mass diverse distribution channels from grocery stores, stadiums and movie theatres, to college campuses and Ride-Hailing Networks. By partnering with major brands like T-Mobile, Kroger, Toshiba, Marvel and others, GFT Rewards reinvented reward creation, distribution, redemption and reimbursements, making it frictionless and profitable for retailers to hyper-scale, target and personalize their rewards and loyalty platforms, while making it easier and much more abundant for consumers to engage and reap the benefits. In its latest initiative, GFT Rewards has teamed up with Datavault AI and ADIO® to set a new standard for programmatic reward distribution, from coupons and rebates to web 3, tokenized loyalty incentives. Leveraging ADIO's patented inaudible-tone technology, this collaboration enables retailers and brands to deliver cash-redeemable or tokenized loyalty offers directly to consumers' mobile devices. Under the terms of the agreement, Datavault AI will receive a fee for every reward redemption managed and redeemed through GFT's platform with ADIO. Datavault AI has licensed its proprietary audio-based ADIO® solution to GFT Rewards to trigger secure mobile reward redemptions through ultrasonic tones embedded in advertisements and digital media. These rewards are instantly redeemed at the point of sale, offering real-time incentives to shoppers. GFT Rewards will utilize its GFT Cash App to execute revenue-share payments to partners with AI analytics and redemption reporting built into its dashboard. 'Retailers are experiencing a growing demand for frictionless, instant savings and rewards tied to digital ads and proximity triggers,' said Jonas Hudson, Co-CEO of GFT Rewards. 'This partnership combines our financial infrastructure and marketplace with Datavault AI's ultra-targeted, tone-based ad delivery system to enable the next generation in Web 3 rewards, sales and ROI for brands, distributors and IP.' The global mobile coupon market continues its rapid ascent. Valued at $603.3 billion in 2023, the market is projected to reach $1.6 trillion by 2030, reflecting accelerating digital adoption and evolving shopping habits among global consumers. ( 'These numbers show that while coupons are ubiquitous, their impact lies in how strategically they are delivered and redeemed,' said Jonas Hudson, Co-CEO of GFT Rewards. 'Brands that optimize their loyalty and incentive strategies—particularly via mobile—stand to gain significant consumer engagement and revenue lift.' As shoppers increasingly expect instant, low-friction experiences, retailers and brands are moving toward technologies that enable real-time engagement, automated delivery and seamless integration within everyday media. This shift is fueling demand for promotions that can be activated passively, in the moment and in response to media exposure—precisely the type of delivery model ADIO® supports. Unlike legacy solutions reliant on barcodes or QR codes, ADIO® operates via encrypted, high-frequency tones that can be layered into any audio environment—streaming services, television broadcasts, retail PA systems or social video. The technology enables fully passive activation, with coupons appearing as notifications or digital wallet entries the moment the tone is detected. 'By integrating ADIO® technology into the cash ecosystem of GFT, we're giving advertisers a way to turn impressions into transactions instantly,' said Nathaniel Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI. 'ADIO® is an ideal solution for this kind of performance marketing, and we expect significant velocity in adoption as retailers and brands look to reduce friction in the promotional funnel. GFT's system is already rolling out across select banners with national reach, and we anticipate this model becoming a standard for performance-based in-store media.' The agreement expands Datavault AI's channel access in key sectors, including consumer packaged goods (CPG), fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and high-volume grocery retail, all of which are facing increased pressure to demonstrate ROI on every promotional dollar. The ADIO® + GFT Rewards software delivers SKU-level tracking, geo-anchored performance reporting and immediate economic attribution, creating a new standard for coupon campaign accountability. 'Our mission is to make every touchpoint actionable,' continued Nathaniel Bradley. 'This partnership delivers on that goal - bridging content, location and purchase in one seamless loop. Retailers benefit from increased footfall and basket size, while consumers experience real value without extra steps and friction.' The licensing deal with GFT Rewards positions Datavault AI at the center of a rapidly modernizing retail marketing environment. As legacy couponing continues to decline and media fragmentation grows, ADIO® promises a path forward for brands seeking to integrate promotional spend with content strategy and real-world sales outcomes. The technology also opens new monetization avenues for media owners, streaming platforms and retail audio networks. About Datavault AI Inc.

Datavault AI CEO Nathaniel Bradley to Speak at Beyond Expo 2025 on AI Agents and NIL Monetization
BEAVERTON, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT), leading the way in AI data experience, valuation and monetization, today announced that its Chief Executive Officer Nathaniel Bradley will speak at Beyond Expo 2025 in Macau, China, on May 24. The conference, often referred to as the CES of Asia, is Asia's leading consumer technology innovation conference and convenes senior executives and decision-makers from leading technology companies, enterprises and investment firms. Mr. Bradley will participate in the Sports Technology panel taking place at 10:30 am local time, focusing on how Datavault AI is leveraging its patented AI-powered tools like ADIO® and DVHOLO™'s live audience engagement technology and converting athlete NIL data into secure, revenue-generating assets through its VerifyU™ system that allows for real-time NIL token minting and secure monetization through its Information Data Exchange® (IDE). According to the latest Opendorse report, the NIL market is forecast to exceed $2.55 billion by mid-2026 1, fueled by athlete-led asset creation, commercial licensing and performance-based compensation systems. With over 150,000 transactions analyzed across the NCAA ecosystem, the trend highlights a shift toward digital NIL activations where tokenization, automated valuation and resale royalties are increasingly driving revenue. 'Brands and platforms capable of managing NIL rights with speed, transparency and scale are now becoming central to how athletic departments and collectives approach long-term monetization,' commented Mr. Bradley. At Beyond Expo, Mr. Bradley will spotlight how Datavault AI's patented platform is enabling scalable NIL monetization. Through its VerifyU™ system, the company supports real-time NIL token minting tied to performance and credentialed data, and now can use this infrastructure to issue NIL tokens backed by academic records, athletic stats and smart contract governance. The ability to mint digital trophies and memorabilia with built-in royalty. Beyond NIL, Datavault AI's ADIO® and DVHOLO™ technologies have been deployed at high-profile events, including NFL Alumni programs during Draft Week and Super Bowl activations, where they delivered real-time audience interaction, health messaging and content access through inaudible mobile triggers. 'The global NIL market has matured rapidly, but the infrastructure behind it hasn't kept pace,' Mr. Bradley said. 'We've created the engine that turns athlete data into trackable, monetizable assets with built-in compliance, dynamic valuation and cross-platform portability. At Beyond Expo, we'll show how this infrastructure is already in use and generating tangible returns.' Datavault AI's model departs from traditional NIL marketplaces by offering athletes, institutions and sponsors access to a complete monetization stack: valuation engines, minting utilities, smart contract automation and a compliant resale environment. With its patented tokenomics and licensing framework, the company enables long-tail NIL monetization without dependency on donor collectives or third-party agents. Datavault AI is building essential infrastructure for the NIL economy, with active deployments across Division I athletics, youth development programs and media-led marketplaces. Its platform supports performance valuation, royalty automation, tokenized credentials and compliant resale—all within a single system built to convert athlete data and audience interaction into license-based and transactional revenue. Beyond Expo brings together stakeholders aligned with Datavault AI's technology, making it a strategic venue to show how these systems are being applied to commercial use across sports and entertainment.
