Company Description
Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc. (OTC: KPIFF) is described in recent disclosures as the industry pioneer of AI-powered Wi‑Fi Spectrum Slicing technology, focused on residential, enterprise and Industrial IoT markets. The company’s stock is quoted in the United States under the symbol KPIFF and on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol YFI. Edgewater Wireless positions its technology as a way to improve Wi‑Fi quality of service (QoS) in dense, real‑world environments where congestion and interference can limit performance.
Across multiple company news releases, Edgewater Wireless states that it is redefining Wi‑Fi from the silicon up through a patented, AI‑powered Wi‑Fi Spectrum Slicing platform delivered via its PrismIQ product family. According to the company, Spectrum Slicing enables multiple concurrent channels within a single band, which is intended to increase usable capacity and reduce latency, even for legacy Wi‑Fi devices. The company describes its approach as Wi‑Fi8‑ready and oriented toward Ultra High Reliability, with a focus on predictable performance at scale.
Business focus and technology
Edgewater Wireless emphasizes that it "makes Wi‑Fi better" by intelligently mitigating congestion, managing or allocating spectrum in real time, and autonomously configuring or optimizing channel and link density. In its public communications, the company links these capabilities to economic outcomes for service providers and their customers, including reduced churn, improved efficiency and high‑performance connectivity in dense environments. The company highlights that its Spectrum Slicing platform is protected by 26 granted patents, with additional AI‑related patents pending mentioned in some releases.
The PrismIQ product family is presented as the company’s Wi‑Fi8‑ready solution set. Edgewater Wireless explains that PrismIQ combines Spectrum Slicing with AI‑driven optimization to support emerging applications across consumer, enterprise and industrial markets. The company also notes that its technology is designed to remain compatible with existing Wi‑Fi devices while targeting higher capacity, lower latency and more deterministic performance in high‑density scenarios such as multi‑dwelling units, smart factories and other Industrial IoT deployments.
Fabless semiconductor and ecosystem positioning
In its news releases, Edgewater Wireless repeatedly describes itself as operating with a capital‑efficient, fabless model. Rather than manufacturing its own chips, the company focuses on silicon architecture, Wi‑Fi Spectrum Slicing and AI‑enabled system design, while working with external semiconductor partners and tools. Edgewater Wireless is identified as a Silicon Catalyst portfolio company, which it states gives it access to a global semiconductor innovation ecosystem, including experts, electronic design automation (EDA), foundry and packaging partners, and corporate strategics.
The company has publicly announced that it is advancing a Wi‑Fi8 Spectrum Slicing silicon roadmap. It has selected Synopsys Cloud, a chip design automation platform, as a core element of its next‑generation Wi‑Fi8‑ready spectrum slicing silicon design and verification flows. Edgewater Wireless indicates that it is using Synopsys EDA solutions to support architecture exploration, RTL design, verification, implementation and sign‑off for its RF, mixed‑signal and AI‑enabled Wi‑Fi system‑on‑chip architectures. The company also reports milestones such as completing RF front‑end packaging for components to be integrated into the PrismIQ product family and initiating prototyping of an AI subsystem powered by Arm to enhance edge‑centric Wi‑Fi performance.
Target markets and use cases
According to its public statements, Edgewater Wireless targets service providers, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), enterprises and Industrial IoT customers. The company’s technology is framed as addressing high‑density Wi‑Fi environments where many users and devices compete for limited spectrum. Examples mentioned in its communications include residential deployments, multi‑dwelling units, enterprise networks and industrial settings where deterministic performance and lower latency are important.
Edgewater Wireless links its technology to the broader evolution of Wi‑Fi standards, noting that industry expectations are moving beyond Wi‑Fi6 and Wi‑Fi7 toward Wi‑Fi8‑class performance. The company positions Spectrum Slicing and multi‑channel concurrency as an architectural response to this shift, with the goal of creating more usable capacity from existing bands and improving worst‑case latency and packet loss in congested environments.
Corporate developments and governance
Recent news releases provide additional context on Edgewater Wireless as a public company. The company reports engaging in capital structure management, including unsecured convertible debentures and share purchase warrants, subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. It has also disclosed the settlement of debenture interest obligations through the issuance of common shares and proposed extensions to warrant expiry dates, again subject to exchange approval.
Edgewater Wireless has announced shareholder approvals for equity incentive plans, including a 2025 Equity Incentive Plan and a subsequent equity incentive plan that allows the issuance of stock options, restricted share units, performance share units and deferred share units to directors, officers, employees and consultants. The company notes that these plans and related grants are subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. It has also reported annual general meeting results, including the election of directors and the appointment of a board chair.
Advisory relationships and industry visibility
In its communications, Edgewater Wireless highlights its participation in industry forums and its relationships within the semiconductor ecosystem. The company has referenced invitations to speak at events such as a Silicon Catalyst panel hosted with Arm at TSMC and a Canadian semiconductor symposium. It also notes ongoing engagement with Silicon Catalyst’s portfolio company network.
Edgewater Wireless has announced that Wi‑Fi semiconductor executive Rick Bahr has joined the company as a strategic advisor. According to the company, Bahr’s advisory role includes helping shape the Wi‑Fi8‑ready Spectrum Slicing silicon roadmap, guiding system‑level architecture decisions across RF front‑end, baseband and AI subsystems, aligning technology with Tier‑1 service provider, Industrial IoT and automotive requirements, and connecting Edgewater’s product and IP‑licensing strategy with the broader semiconductor ecosystem.
Investor communications and marketing
The company has disclosed engagements with Winning Media LLC to provide digital marketing and digital advertising services, including omnichannel programmatic advertising, SMS and email marketing, ticker tagging and digital podcasts, for defined terms and fees. These arrangements are described as subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval. Edgewater Wireless has also indicated that it uses digital awareness programs to increase visibility among investors and market participants.
Summary
Overall, Edgewater Wireless Systems Inc. presents itself, through its public news releases, as a fabless semiconductor company focused on AI‑powered Wi‑Fi Spectrum Slicing silicon and IP. Its PrismIQ product family and Wi‑Fi8‑ready roadmap are aimed at improving Wi‑Fi QoS, capacity and latency in dense environments across residential, enterprise and Industrial IoT markets. The company emphasizes its patent portfolio, its relationship with Silicon Catalyst, and its use of established EDA platforms and semiconductor partners to advance its system‑on‑chip architectures and related offerings.
