Datavault AI expands IBM collaboration for edge AI

Datavault AI announced it will activate a secured, multi-city edge AI network across New York and Philadelphia to process and monetize data at the point of creation.

The company said on Thursday that the deployment will run on Available Infrastructure’s SanQtum AI platform, a fleet of synchronized micro edge data centers operating IBM’s watsonx portfolio on a zero-trust network.

Datavault AI said it will run its Information Data Exchange and DataScore agents, built with watsonx, inside SanQtum AI’s zero-trust environment to process and tokenize data in real time.

“We now have the infrastructure to deliver what the market has only talked about,” said Nathaniel Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI.

“The 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.”

“By 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,” added Daniel Gregory, CEO of Available Infrastructure.

Biz Dziarmaga, Head of Americas AI Partnerships at IBM, added that the collaboration demonstrates “the power of IBM’s ecosystem approach—leveraging watsonx to deliver scalable AI.”

SanQtum AI’s GPU-rich edge architecture is designed to support operational scale across New York and Philadelphia in Q1 2026, with plans to expand in multiple metro regions, the companies said.
