Datavault AI expands its VerifyU credentialing platform and ADIO engagement technology in entertainment copyright and nightlife, a rapidly evolving market for authentic digital verification and real-time data monetization
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN – Datavault AI Inc. (Nasdaq: DVLT), a leader in data monetization, credentialing and digital engagement technologies, today announced a landmark partnership with Rodney’s Comedy Club, integrating its VerifyU, Joke Token, and ADIO solutions to transform the way audiences and performers interact in live entertainment environments.
Through this collaboration, Rodney’s Comedy Club will become the first comedy venue in the country to offer verifiable digital credentials for performers and fans alike. Using VerifyU, comedians and event participants can securely validate their professional achievements, media appearances, and event credentials. Meanwhile, Joke Token, a blockchain-based engagement tool, allows fans to directly reward performers and participate in exclusive club experiences. ADIO, Datavault AI’s patented data-over-sound technology, seamlessly connects live shows to digital platforms, turning every performance into an interactive, data-driven experience.
Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault Ai stated, “As Rodney Dangerfield taught us, no one gets respect without earning it through sheer grit and good humor qualities that define New York's enduring spirit. I applaud Mark Yosef, the current owner of Rodney's, a place of family, friends and for keeping the city laughing amid these divisive times. Sometimes, all you can do is laugh; and if you can make it in New York, you can make it anywhere. Our Joke Token made it to the streaming era from clubs like his and is evolving into a Web 3.0 revolution, where sound carries data, and data unlocks wealth and immersive experiences. Soon, Rodney himself will return in holographic form, and we'll laugh again with him at the lead with lightning quick wit and either an arrogance or humility that makes Rodney's the ultimate spot for that essential chuckle. I applaud Bryan Dromerhauser, the rookie of the year at Data Vault who drives with wit, humor and humility that delivers results, changing comedy to the next generation using blockchain to solve old problems in the oldest of industries that has always had problems caring for, honoring and remunerating its greatest talents. If we finish our Joke Token mission a whole new generation of artists will emerge. We will laugh harder than ever. Together.”
