Quick Custom Intelligence (QCI), a leading provider of AI-driven operations software for tribal gaming resorts, announced it will showcase its evolving QCI Agentic Platform at the Indian Gaming Association (IGA) Tradeshow & Convention, March 31–April 2, 2026, at the San Diego Convention Center (Booth #2735).

The QCI Agentic Platform reflects the continued advancement of the company’s enterprise system, enabling operators to move from real-time insight to real-time action across gaming, marketing, player development, and hotel operations. Designed for on-premise and hybrid environments, the platform supports secure, property-level AI deployment while maintaining full operational control.

Rather than introducing a new system, QCI’s approach extends the capabilities operators already use—bringing analysis and execution closer together within a unified operational environment.

“This is a continuation of the platform our customers already rely on. We’re building on what works and extending it, so operators can act on information faster, without changing the way their business runs,” said Dr. Ralph Thomas, Co-Founder and CEO of QCI.

The QCI Agentic Platform builds on QCI’s established product suite, including:

• AGI56.1, a major platform release featuring more than 1000 enhancements across operations

• Chatalytics, QCI’s conversational analytics interface for real-time data access

• QCI Dispatch, a new core operational tool supporting real-time coordination and execution

Together, these capabilities enable operators to unify data, streamline workflows, and respond more quickly to changing conditions across the property.

Attendees will experience how QCI connects data, decision-making, and execution within a single operational system.

“We’re focused on practical improvements that help teams do their jobs more effectively. This is about making systems more responsive, more connected, and easier to use in day-to-day operations,” added Thomas.
