SOFTSWISS Publishes Free Online Casino Budget Calculator
SOFTSWISS, an innovative software solutions provider for iGaming, has created an Online Casino Budget Calculator. The free budget template is designed to help operators realistically plan the costs and revenues involved in running an online casino brand. The Budget Calculator serves as a valuable tool for entrepreneurs to manage their operational expenses, mitigate potential risks, and optimise overall returns.
The Budget Calculator is available on the SOFTSWISS website for anyone looking to succeed on the iGaming market. It is available on various devices, including smartphones. Access to the tool is easily obtained: after filling in the contact form, the user will receive an email with a guide containing a link to the budget balance sheet template.
The cheat sheet accompanying the budget balance sheet template offers instructions for using the Budget Calculator template as well as defining the key terms and metrics used within. The Online Casino Budget Calculator covers expenses related to both the pre-launch and post-launch phases of an online casino business. The downloadable file is also designed to allow users to plan their expenses for 12 months and outline potential profit and loss figures.
Max Trafimovich, CCO at SOFTSWISS, comments on the launch of the new guide: “With over a decade of experience as a trusted partner to a huge range of iGaming businesses, we have gained extensive industry knowledge, which has enabled us to innovate and improve our products and services continuously. Therefore, we know better than anyone that launching a new project is a complex and multifaceted process. We created The Budget Calculator template as an easy pre-launch checklist, helping potential partners be sure in building successful online casinos from the ground up.”
Sharing its knowledge globally, SOFTSWISS is committed to actively expanding its presence in the LatAm market this year. As a further step, the company will be present at SiGMA Americas from 14–18 June, at stand D80, to share its vision for the region’s future development.

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.
