Datavault AI expands deployment, strengthens market position on Available neocloud infrastructure

Published

on

By

Datavault’s deployment onto SanQtum is expanding: in addition to NYC and Philadelphia, the company is also live with edge AI on a third hub in Washington, DC, and will be live in three more cities by the end of the year.

TYSONS CORNER, Va. and PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — In a pair of announcements in early January 2026, Datavault AI announced nationwide deployment of the company’s DataValue, DataScore, and Information Data Exchange (IDE) solutions onto Available’s SanQtum neocloud platform, along with initial edge AI hubs in New York City and Philadelphia in collaboration with Available and IBM.

Eight months later, Datavault’s deployment onto SanQtum is expanding: in addition to NYC and Philadelphia, the company is also live with edge AI on a third hub in Washington, DC, and will be live in three more cities — San Francisco, Chicago, and Raleigh (NC) — totaling six by the end of the year.

Complementing these “super node” hubs, ~200 Available Infrastructure micro edge sites located at cell towers across 30 US cities are operating or under construction, with edge clusters in 70 cities to be added to Available’s neocloud in the coming months. This represents phase 1 of Available’s US neocloud infrastructure buildout, which the company unveiled as Project Qestrel in March.

Market forecasts show very strong demand for neocloud offerings. Synergy Research Group reports $9B (US) in Q4 2025, up 223% year-over-year, exceeding $25B (US) total in 2025 and a 58% CAGR approaching $400B by 2031. The World Economic Forum projects the neocloud market at $250B by 2030.

Companies that can differentiate within this neocloud market segment — such as with sovereign architecture, ultra-low-latency for real-time AI inference, and superior cybersecurity — are well-positioned to excel. The entire SanQtum platform is purpose-built to such specs: sovereign, resilient, edge-first, zero trust, and Q Day ready. These are all attributes that in turn strengthen Datavault’s value proposition for its customers.

The next step in Datavault’s deployment onto the Project Qestrel fleet of Available’s SanQtum neocloud is manufacturing $QEST coins to monetize the value of the associated compute, including moving into compelling new markets such as sovereign edge AI inference. Available is proud to provide the foundation for Datavault CEO Nate Bradley and his team to embark on a game-changing endeavor with their solutions around digital twins, tokenization of real-world assets (RWA), and more.

About Available Infrastructure

Based in Northern Virginia along the Washington, DC, beltway, Available Infrastructure offers SanQtum: a secure, sovereign environment for running mission critical applications, deploying AI inference, and storing sensitive data. SanQtum is offered as an integrated, managed service that conveniently bundles three crucial components: a cybersecure zero trust network overlay, high-performance neocloud compute at urban and frontier micro edge sites, and AI inference governance and orchestration. Available Infrastructure is an IBM Platinum Partner.

New CEO, Strengthened Board, and Growth Investment from Bregal Sagemount Fuel the Company’s Next Phase of Expansion

LANCASTER, Pa., Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Harbor Compliance, a leading provider of compliance, licensing, and registered agent services, is executing an ambitious growth strategy backed by new leadership, a strengthened board, and a committed capital partner. That momentum is reflected in the company’s eighth appearance on the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies, with three-year revenue growth of 55 percent.

In February 2026, Harbor Compliance secured a majority growth investment from Bregal Sagemount, a growth-focused private capital firm, and appointed Chad Nuss as Chief Executive Officer. Industry veteran John Weber, former CEO of CT Corporation, joined the company’s board of directors alongside partners from Bregal Sagemount, bringing decades of regulatory and compliance leadership to guide the company’s next phase. The investment is fueling continued expansion of Harbor Compliance’s regulatory data, software, and managed services — the same combination that has driven the company’s growth since it was founded in 2012 and that today serves more than 40,000 customers nationwide.

“This recognition reflects the alignment we have across our leadership team, board, and investors around a single strategy: making compliance simple for the customers we serve,” said Chad Nuss, CEO of Harbor Compliance. “Sustaining growth over eight years means making our customers’ lives easier no matter how fast requirements change. That’s why we listen to the needs in the market, continue to expand our compliance services, and deliver additional capabilities through technology. Organizations can see and address their full compliance picture in one place rather than piecing it together state by state. This complete regulatory compliance is the peace of mind organizations are asking for.”

“Harbor Compliance has the rare combination of a differentiated product, a large and growing market, and a leadership team that knows how to execute,” said John Weber, board member and former CEO of CT Corporation. “That combination is why the board and our investment partners are confident in the company’s path forward.”

Through a unique combination of proprietary data, advanced software, and expert support, Harbor Compliance helps businesses and nonprofits manage the registration rules, licensing categories, renewal calendars, and reporting obligations that vary by jurisdiction and change with little warning. From a single interface, users can track renewal dates, assign tasks to colleagues, store records, and access registered agent documents. The software is available as a service and also serves as the foundation of the company’s managed services.

About Harbor Compliance

Harbor Compliance helps organizations simplify regulatory compliance. Through Harbor Everywhere, Harbor Compliance delivers its purpose-built entity, licensing, tax registration, and registered agent data directly inside the operational systems organizations already use to run their business. Trusted by more than 40,000 organizations nationwide, Harbor Compliance combines purpose-built technology with expert support to help organizations stay compliant and confidently grow across jurisdictions.
