WaveOne was founded in 2016 with the mission of turning video codes and integrating AI into them. The company's methods of video compression reportedly could reduce the size of files by as much as half.
KeyBanc Capital Markets recently said its proprietary data showed February spending on Apple products and services was above the three-year average.
