TULSA, Okla., Feb. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Soaak Technologies, Inc. announces it has been selected by AFWERX for a SBIR Phase II contract in the amount of $1.1 million, focused on delivering its proprietary sound frequency compositions to address the most pressing challenges faced by the Department of the Air Force (DAF).

The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) and AFWERX have partnered to streamline the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) process by accelerating the small business experience through faster proposal to award timelines, changing the pool of potential applicants by expanding opportunities to small business and eliminating bureaucratic overhead by continually implementing process improvement changes in contract execution.

The DAF began offering the Open Topic SBIR/STTR program in 2018, which expanded the range of innovations DAF funded, and now, Soaak Technologies continues its journey from Phase I to Phase II to create and provide innovative capabilities that will strengthen the national defense of the United States of America.

Soaak Technologies is developing advanced mobile and web applications, tailored for the DAF's unique operational needs. These applications are created to improve mission readiness and cognitive resilience using Soaak's proprietary sound frequency technology, addressing the crucial requirement of maintaining peak mental and physical states in demanding environments. By integrating Soaak's proprietary technology, this project is set to advance health tech innovation and the operational efficacy of service members.

"Soaak is honored to collaborate with DAF in this pivotal endeavor. Our proprietary technology represents a groundbreaking passive and pharmacology-free method to enhance warfighter performance, resilience, and overall well-being," said Aaron Fournier, President of Soaak Digital. "Through this project, we anticipate not only improving the cognitive resilience and mission readiness of DAF personnel but also setting a new standard for integrating passive and proactive health technology within our nation's military operations."
