19 August 2026 – SlotMatic, the AI-native platform designed to transform and accelerate slot game production, has secured four nominations at the EGR Italy Awards 2026.

SlotMatic has been shortlisted in the following categories:

  • Rising Star;
  • Innovation in Casino;
  • Full-Service Platform Provider;
  • Software Supplier.

The nominations recognise the breadth of SlotMatic’s technology proposition, covering product innovation, software development, platform infrastructure and its emergence as a new supplier to the iGaming industry.

Founded by Domenico Vacchiano, SlotMatic brings the main stages of slot development together within a coordinated, AI-powered environment.

From concept to playable prototype

SlotMatic was developed to address some of the main challenges associated with traditional slot production, including extended development cycles, fragmented workflows, rising production costs and the need to validate game mathematics before significant resources are committed.

The platform’s multi-agent architecture coordinates creative concept development, game mathematics, simulations, prototyping, software production, visual and audio assets, testing, optimisation and preparation for delivery.

At the centre of the platform is AGENTIX, a proprietary deep reasoning engine that orchestrates specialised AI agents and translates product requirements into structured, verifiable outputs.

The system supports custom paylines, reel structures, symbol distribution, targeted RTP levels, bonus features, free spins, multipliers, persistent states and other advanced game mechanics.

Its mathematical tools can run large-scale simulations to assess RTP, hit rate, volatility and probability distribution before a product progresses to full production.

According to SlotMatic, its AI-native workflow can produce a playable prototype in less than an hour. The company also estimates that its model can reduce development time by up to 80% and lower the average production cost per game by up to 50%.

A platform covering software, mathematics and creativity

The Full-Service Platform Provider and Software Supplier nominations highlight SlotMatic’s aim to operate as more than a standalone game generation tool.

The platform is designed to provide an end-to-end production environment connecting product strategy, mathematical validation, creative development, engineering and quality assurance.

Its Creative Studio supports the creation and management of backgrounds, symbols, animations, sounds and special effects, producing game-ready assets for development environments including Cocos2d and PixiJS.

SquadMatic, the platform’s AI-native studio orchestration layer, coordinates workflows across concept development, mathematics, roadmaps, software production, QA, optimisation and compliance.

Human teams remain responsible for strategic, creative, commercial and regulatory decisions, while the AI agents provide analytical, production and coordination support.

Domenico Vacchiano leads the technology strategy

SlotMatic is led by Founder and Chief Innovation & Technology Officer Domenico Vacchiano.

Vacchiano has held senior product, technology and engineering roles across enterprise technology and iGaming, with experience involving Derivco/Microgaming, WeAreCasino, Gaming Innovation Group, Catena Media, Casumo and Swintt.

His background includes mobile betting and casino products, gaming aggregation platforms, large-scale engineering organisations and cloud-native AWS infrastructure.

Through SlotMatic, this experience has been applied to the development of a production model intended to help studios, suppliers and operators test more concepts, reduce time-to-market and create games through a more integrated workflow.
