Aggregator and platform Groove, which has secured a position as one of the world’s top-performing iGaming businesses, has announced the opening of a new global HQ in the iconic Bet Aviel Tower in Ashkelon as part of a capacity-building exercise to drive continuing rapid growth. The company also has operations in Georgia, Ukraine and Malta, employing over 100 people, which will be run from the state-of-the-art tower.

This is a very visible statement by the aggregator that it means business. Bet Aviel Tower stands out not least due to the stunning views it showcases, reaching across the city to the sea, several miles from the prestigious office location. Moreover, the iconic building and its views can be enjoyed from anywhere within due to glass partitions and the fact that all deskspace is positioned in front of the panoramic windows overlooking the vista.

The expansion will support a growing team and allow for more comprehensive support in regulated markets. Groove will continue to build a global presence to better serve its operator cluster and provide world-class facilities for its team. The company has rapidly built a powerful operator cluster around its technology and is supported by one of the strongest technical teams in the industry.

Groove’s aggregation platform provides a broad portfolio comprising thousands of games from respected international partners combined with pioneering backend tools for casino operators and is the content provider of choice for a host of big industry names including EveryMatrix, iGP, Digitain, Microgaming, ProgressPlay, Quickfire, BetConstruct Evoplay Entertainment and Alea, amongst others.

Groove’s powerful platform includes thousands of casino games as well as a wealth of aggregated content ranging from slots, online casino and live casino, to poker and table games, that operators can access via easy integration to drive player engagement and revenue from GrooveOn, an easy-to-use multifunctional back-office, which powers performance. GrooveOn has been developed to create a valuable environment for online casinos: a place where entertainment is customisable, secure and stable.

Commenting on the move to the new HQ, Yahale Meltzer, COO at Groove said: “The tech talent in Israel is incredible and this new office provides current and new team members with access to world-class facilities, enabling them to better serve our operator cluster and liaise with our content partners. Our plan is to continue to grow and get closer to our operators with superior service and place our technology in the hands of many more iGaming companies. Working in an office like this is inspiring for the whole team and we look forward to significantly growing our business here over the next couple of years.”

SoftConstruct unveils RecSys AI game recommendation system at AIBC Eurasia

In an iGaming Real Talk interview in Dubai, the firm says the tool reads player emotion and context to guide operator actions.

SoftConstruct AI has unveiled RecSys, an AI Game Recommendation System, during an exclusive iGaming Real Talk interview recorded at AIBC Eurasia in Dubai on Thursday 30th April.

Mushegh Khachatryan, Chief AI Officer at SoftConstruct AI, said RecSys is designed to move beyond traditional recommendation models by interpreting player emotions in real time and accounting for context, with the goal of suggesting “the next best action” for operators. “You can understand your customer’s emotions in real time and suggest the next best action. We are building intelligent systems which can reason and act.”

Khachatryan said SoftConstruct built an AI Center of Excellence by hiring talent from outside the iGaming sector, and described RecSys as part of “production-ready agentic AI” intended to support personalised campaigns and decision automation. Surya Palli, host of iGaming Real Talk, said: “SoftConstruct is essentially building a Netflix-style personalised experience for the iGaming industry, where every player gets a lobby made just for them.”

Responsible gaming was also discussed, with the company claiming AI can detect risky behaviour faster and more consistently than human teams, and recommend timely breaks while balancing player protection with sustainable growth.

Khachatryan also stressed the need for explainable, controlled deployment. “AI should help teams perform five times better rather than replace them… Without proper boundaries, short-term momentum boosts with AI can actually hurt your company in the long term.” The company said operators can manage campaigns, personalisation and risk through chat interfaces, with at least 85% accuracy “from the first interactions,” and directed viewers to the full interview on the iGaming Real Talk YouTube channel.
