Generic or domain – specific? Any comparisons / benchmarks vs existing compression algorithms? Speed? Too many questions. I think early investors will loose their money.

I wonder how it does this at wire-rate speed though, as there were trade-offs I remember at Cisco, Riverbed etc.

Could this be viewed as a homomorphic variant of LZ78 for example, where codebooks replace dictionaries, and are derived through ML (or is it something completely different and non-analogous I wonder)?
