Kinectify

Kinectify operates as a risk management technology firm, providing a specialized platform for the gaming industry in the United States and Canada. Founded in 2020 by Joseph Martin and headquartered in Las Vegas, the company focuses on anti-money laundering (AML) and responsible gaming (RG) compliance. Martin, the current CEO, leveraged his extensive background as an AML analyst in gaming, cannabis, and banking to create the company. His experience, which includes serving in the U.S. Marine Corps and holding roles at companies like Hypur and Caesars Entertainment, shaped his vision for a modern risk management tool designed by compliance practitioners.

The company's core offering is a configurable AML platform that centralizes an organization's data into a single, unified view to manage compliance across the entire enterprise. The software provides real-time intelligence, automates workflows, offers advanced data analytics, and enables the automatic generation and filing of Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs). By integrating with data partners like Quantifind and LexisNexis Risk Solutions, the platform helps detect suspicious activities, monitor transactions, and visualize relationships to accelerate due diligence. Kinectify utilizes Microsoft Azure's cloud services, including AI and machine learning, to analyze large volumes of transaction data for potential illicit activities. This technology primarily serves both land-based and online gaming operators, helping them to meet regulatory requirements efficiently.

In addition to its software-as-a-service (SaaS) product, Kinectify offers advisory services through 'Kinectify Advisors'. This arm of the business provides clients with access to industry experts for designing and testing compliance programs, meeting regulatory deadlines, and outsourcing the administration of their compliance functions. This dual-offering model—combining technology with expert consulting and staff augmentation—allows Kinectify to function as a comprehensive compliance department for its clients. The company has secured seed funding from notable industry players, including OpenBet, Acies Investments, and the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, to scale its operations.
