(Nasdaq: DVLT), a leader in instant data monetization &amp; enterprise digital twins,\u00a0announced it will deliver enterprise-grade AI performance at the edge in New York and Philadelphia through an expanded collaboration with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ibm.com\/investor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IBM<\/a>\u00a0using the SanQtum AI platform.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Operated by Available Infrastructure, SanQtum AI is a fleet of synchronized micro edge data centers running IBM\u2019s watsonx portfolio of AI products on a zero-trust network. The combined deployment is designed to enable cybersecure data storage and compute, real-time data scoring, tokenization, and ultra-low-latency.<\/p>\n<p>By running Datavault AI\u2019s Information Data Exchange and DataScore agents\u2014built with watsonx\u2014within SanQtum AI\u2019s zero-trust edge environment, Datavault AI can help clients process and tokenize data when it is created, transforming raw inputs into authenticated, tradable digital property in real-time. This capability supports enterprise AI workloads, media analytics, identity verification, tokenization, credentialing, and high-security data commerce without having to rely on public cloud infrastructure, which can present major security risks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe now have the infrastructure to deliver what the market has only talked about,\u201d said\u00a0Nathaniel Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI. \u201cThe watsonx portfolio of AI products gives us the added intelligence, SanQtum AI gives us the speed, and together they give Datavault AI the ability to create authenticated digital property nearly at the instant data comes into existence. I believe this could change the economics of data, helping us serve enterprises such as media leaders, sports organizations and government agencies across the Northeast Corridor with unmatched performance and security.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The combination of Datavault AI and SanQtum AI aims to help clients instantly tokenize, value, verify, and monetize data as a real-time asset class, by:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Removing dependence on centralized cloud pipelines<\/li>\n<li>Eliminating lag between data creation and monetization<\/li>\n<li>Preventing tampering by keeping data inside a zero-trust local network<\/li>\n<li>Allowing enterprises to treat their data as instant, tradable digital property<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cBy unifying speed, resilience, and trusted protection in a single platform, SanQtum AI provides a powerful new foundation for AI and computing safety, reliability, and performance,\u201d added\u00a0Daniel Gregory, CEO of Available Infrastructure. \u201cDatavault AI\u2019s deployment of this technology, in collaboration with IBM, will help bolster enterprise-grade AI in the Northeast in ways that we believe will set the bar higher than ever for others to follow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biz Dziarmaga, Head of Americas AI Partnerships at IBM,\u00a0added, \u201cOur work with Datavault AI and Available Infrastructure demonstrates the power of IBM\u2019s ecosystem approach\u2014leveraging watsonx to deliver scalable AI that helps enterprises drive smarter operations and faster business outcomes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>SanQtumAI\u2019s GPU-rich edge distributed architecture is designed to enable Datavault AI to deliver this capability at operational scale across New York and Philadelphia in Q1 2026, with plans to expand in multiple metro regions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Operated by Available Infrastructure, SanQtum AI is a fleet of synchronized micro edge data centers running IBM\u2019s watsonx portfolio of AI products on a zero-trust network.
