NFL Alumni Health Taps Datavault AI's ADIO® for Health-Focused and Interactive Web 3.0 Activations During Draft Week Event

Business Wire28-04-2025

BEAVERTON, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT), leading the way in AI data experience, valuation and monetization, announces its continued collaboration with NFL Alumni Health at the organization's 16th Annual Draft Week event on April 24, 2025. The initiative featured Datavault AI's patented ADIO® tone technology in two unique capacities: delivering interactive tones in sync with the top draft picks during the official watch party and sending geo-targeted health messages across the broader event to raise awareness around cardiovascular risks facing former athletes.
As each selection was made, attendees received inaudible tones tied to that athlete's announcement, delivering player-specific information and showcasing how ADIO® can enable interactive fan experiences directly from key event moments. This demonstration highlighted the potential of tone-triggered engagement to deepen audience connection without requiring screens or manual input—marking a shift toward seamless, ambient interaction in the Web 3.0 environment. In parallel, ADIO® delivered discreet, opt-in tones across the venue that linked directly to cardiovascular health education curated by NFL Alumni Health—providing a non-intrusive way to deliver critical resources during one of the year's most watched sporting occasions.
'NFL Alumni Health is committed to innovating how we engage players and the public on issues like heart health,' said Billy Davis, two-time Super Bowl champion and co-director of NFL Alumni Health. 'ADIO® offers a direct line to attendees in a way that's immediate and unobtrusive—exactly the kind of technology we need to elevate the reach and resonance of our mission.'
'Datavault AI is setting a benchmark for AI-powered audience engagement with ADIO®, particularly in high-visibility events where real-time interaction matters most. As adoption grows across sports, healthcare and live entertainment, this technology is rapidly proving its value,' said Nathaniel Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI. 'Deployments at marquee events like NFL Draft Week further validate our position in the market, demonstrating how AI-driven engagement can deliver both immediate impact and scalable long-term monetization opportunities.'
Cardiovascular disease remains a critical issue among former NFL players, with studies showing significantly higher health risks compared to the general population. Research published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology found that 89.8% of retired NFL athletes suffer from hypertension, yet only 37.5% are aware of their condition. 1 In large-scale event environments, audience engagement often drops off sharply without compelling, interactive elements. ADIO® addresses both challenges—enabling dynamic health messaging without reliance on visual or manual prompts while simultaneously demonstrating how key event milestones can anchor Web 3.0 monetization.
Datavault AI's ADIO® tone system is engineered to operate across mobile, broadcast, streaming and in-venue environments. It embeds metadata into high-frequency, inaudible signals that can be programmed for numerous outcomes—ranging from in-event polling to digital asset unlocks. This dual utility aligns with Web 3.0's decentralization ethos: giving users control while enabling institutions to quantify engagement and generate authenticated data yield in real time.
ADIO® continues to gain momentum across major sporting and entertainment venues where attention windows are narrow and digital fatigue is high. Its ability to deliver programmable tones that don't interrupt the user experience positions it as a next-generation solution for both brand activation and cause-driven communication. With ADIO®, fan interaction becomes a touchpoint that's trackable, secure and tied directly to monetizable endpoints.
As demand for interactive engagement surges, AI-powered tools are emerging as indispensable assets for organizations aiming to maximize audience connection. 'This event presents a compelling opportunity to merge Datavault AI's technology with a mission that directly impacts former players and their communities,' said Sonia Choi, CMO at Datavault AI. 'ADIO® is making it possible to deliver critical health information in ways that encourage not just awareness but participation.'
Datavault AI's collaboration with NFL Alumni Health demonstrates how innovative technologies can change audience interaction at major live events. The partnership with NFL Alumni Health on the Draft Week stage exemplifies the impact and potential of technologies like ADIO®, which continues to create new opportunities for monetization and strategic partnerships.

Sauce Gardner Speaks Out On Jets' Contract Talks

Sauce Gardner Speaks Out On Jets' Contract Talks originally appeared on Athlon Sports. FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- It is common for players eligible for a long-term extension with their team to hold out of practice until a deal is reached. Advertisement That hasn't happened with the New York Jets and their young studs, though. All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner and wide receiver Garrett Wilson are eligible for long-term extensions this season. Both are key building blocks for the young Jets under head coach Aaron Glenn. Both were in attendance throughout offseason workouts. While stars around the league, such as Washington's Terry McLaurin, Cincinnati's Trey Hendrickson, and Pittsburgh's T.J. Watt, were all absent from mandatory minicamp, the Jets had their young stars in attendance. There was a reason for that, according to Gardner. "I want to win, I want to change the organization, and I want to be a part of changing the organization," Gardner said on Thursday. Advertisement New York has navigated this offseason with as few distractions as possible. This has allowed them to operate "in the shadows," as Glenn has previously coined it. The next step, though, is locking down their young talent. Both Gardner and Wilson sent a clear message with perfect attendance this offseason. They do not want to be distractions to the team; they just want to be paid their worth and be a part of the changing culture Glenn wants to build. By participating in offseason workouts, the two young stars have essentially operated in good faith that a deal will eventually be made this offseason. And it certainly sounds like that is going to happen.

Aaron Glenn Sends Message To Jets After Offseason Workouts

Aaron Glenn Sends Message To Jets After Offseason Workouts originally appeared on Athlon Sports. FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn passed his first test in his new role. He got the team through his first offseason workout period. Thursday's minicamp practice marked the final time the Jets will be on the practice field until training camp on July 22nd. Advertisement For the last month and a half, the Jets have focused on getting new players up to speed on their new systems and began developing a culture led by Glenn. Now that the team has over a month of rest ahead of them, their new head coach has given them a message to take with them wherever they end up during this vacation time. "I can't be more pleased to finish this offseason up with those guys being able to do that," Glenn said on Thursday. "I'm looking forward to training camp. I hate that things are ending now and we got to take this month off, but I understand it, but guns are blazing once we get back here and go to training camp." Glenn wants his team focused on this new "offseason" period. It appears his players have taken notice as well. Advertisement Quarterback Justin Fields confirmed on Wednesday that he will work with his receivers and tight ends for private sessions over the next month. Other players stay close to the facility to work out or rehab from prior injuries. Whatever the players do can vary. But Glenn has clarified that he wants them mentally focused for the grueling season ahead. A month off is one thing, but the Jets want to hit the ground running once they get on the practice field.

Jets Receiver Picks Bad Time To Be In 'Catch-Up Mode'

Jets Receiver Picks Bad Time To Be In 'Catch-Up Mode' originally appeared on Athlon Sports. One thing we know about Aaron Glenn's regime with the New York Jets is that he isn't mucking around - he means business in his first NFL offseason. Advertisement For rookies and veterans alike, everyone starts from square one as Glenn looks to mold this Jets team into one he thinks can win playing his way. And to do that, players who might be seen as being on the roster bubble have to perform, and for receiver Malachi Corley, he hasn't gotten off to the best of starts under the new management. Having already sat out considerable time at minicamp and prior, Corley is swimming against the tide to make an impression in a receiver room that has spots up for grabs. And receivers coach Shawn Jefferson had a true, yet pointed message to Malachi as training camp comes into focus next month. Advertisement "My old coach, Bill Parcells, used to say the first thing you need to be is you need to be available," Jefferson said via ESPN. "He's missed some time, and there's a learning curve here, so he's in catch-up mode right now." Vincent Carchietta-Imagn Images Catch-up mode isn't ideal. Yes, Corley only has one NFL season under his belt, but the third-round pick only had three receptions for 16 yards in nine games (one start) and played just 83 snaps on offense all season. Keep in mind that it was with a Jets offense that struggled to do anything right. So Corley has it all in front of him in 2025 if he is to make the impact that Glenn and coordinator Tanner Engstrand want. Advertisement But out of all the abilities Corley has, right now, he doesn't have the best one - availability.
