Acquisition to combine NIL expertise with an AI-driven athlete management platform

When I launched Levelution, NIL was uncharted... Joining Adapti expands our mission to help athletes grow their brands, protect their eligibility, and prepare for life beyond the game.”
— Kirk Lee Noles

DALLAS, TX, UNITED STATES, October 21, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Levelution Sports, a leading NIL agency redefining how college athletes build their brands, today announced it has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) to join Adapti, Inc. (OTC: ADTI), a company developing AI technology to integrate sports and influencer management. The partnership marks a pivotal step in uniting innovation, technology, and athlete representation at scale.

Founded in 2021 at the dawn of the Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) era, Levelution Sports was created by entrepreneur Kirk Lee Noles to help college athletes navigate a completely new business landscape. What began as a Texas-based idea quickly evolved into a national, multi-sport agency representing some of the most exciting names in football, basketball, volleyball, and track & field. Over four years, Levelution has secured six-figure trading card deals, national brand partnerships, and innovative marketing campaigns for its athletes—building a reputation for creativity, compliance expertise, and career-long athlete development.

“When I launched Levelution, NIL was still an uncharted frontier,” said Kirk Lee Noles, Founder & CEO of Levelution Sports. “Our vision was to create a place where athletes could maximize their brand, protect their eligibility, and prepare for life beyond the game. To have that work recognized by a company like Adapti—and to now combine forces on a truly national scale—is an incredible milestone for our team, our athletes, and the vision we’ve pursued since day one.”

The proposed acquisition positions Levelution to expand its reach and resources by joining Adapti’s multi-sport athlete management platform. Adapti’s AI-powered technology and national infrastructure will add scale and opportunity for Levelution’s roster, while Levelution brings deep NIL expertise, proven brand-building strategies, and a track record of innovative athlete marketing.

“Kirk and his team have built a respected agency with true NIL leadership,” said Adam Nicosia, CEO of Adapti. “Their athlete-centric approach and proven results are the perfect complement to Adapti’s vision to deliver next-generation opportunities for athletes on and off the field.”

Additional details will be shared upon completion of the acquisition. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
