I haven't watched the 1.5h interview yet but I think its an airbreathing first stage with a conventional rocket second stage, but not sure if they are past the concept with respect to that or more just developing the adaptive jet engine itself
I would imagine it would just keep gathering speed in low enough atmosphere until the ramjet is not efficient enough and then launch the second stage rocket still in atmosphere but who knows

I think there was another company trying to do a first stage plane as well
