12 January 2026 — A new era of Live Casino has arrived with the launch of Avanti Studios, a disruptive software provider founded by industry veterans Gustaf Hagman and Jonas Delin. Built to address the sector’s most persistent challenges—including slow innovation, high operating costs, limited low-stakes and localised tables, and inefficient scalability—Avanti introduces a fully real-time, multiplayer Live Casino solution designed for both trust and growth.
Avanti streams 100% real-time action, ensuring that every card, wheel spin, and dice roll happens live, with no pre-recorded elements. The company’s breakthrough lies in its purpose-built in-house motion capture studio, which captures the precise movements, mannerisms, and techniques of experienced land-based croupiers. Using advanced 3D animation and AI, Avanti transforms these recordings into lifelike digital dealer clones capable of flawless performance, consistent presentation, and round-the-clock availability.
Operators can fully customise both dealers and environments to match their brand, language, appearance, dealing speed, and preferred stakes. This replaces traditional fixed costs—such as studios, dealer salaries, shifts, and maintenance—with a flexible revenue-share or subscription model. Early estimates indicate 50–60% cost reductions, enabling operators to scale rapidly, respond to market demand, and reduce barriers to entering new regions.
The live experience runs on a proprietary, cloud-based Unreal Engine streaming protocol engineered specifically for mobile players. High-definition video is streamed directly to players, combining the trusted look and feel of land-based casinos with next-generation efficiency.
Avanti is already in advanced discussions with leading operators, with an official rollout scheduled for Q1 2026. The initial wave of releases will include multiple Live Baccarat and Blackjack variants, Dragon Tiger, and localised Top Card games. Launches will begin in regulated markets globally, starting in Spain with Avanti’s original Toro vs. Matador Live and Live Blackjack. Additional innovative formats—including exclusive “One Tap” titles and other original games—are set to follow in the first half of 2026.
Gustaf Hagman, Co-Founder at Avanti Studios, said:
“Player trust has always been the cornerstone of live casino success. At Avanti, we preserve that trust through genuine real-time multiplayer action while leveraging next-gen technology for flawless execution and scalability. This is Live Casino done better – it’s authentic, reliable, and has been built for the future.”
Jonas Delin, Co-Founder at Avanti Studios, added:
“Traditional Live Casino has been slow to embrace innovation. We’ve put technology at the centre, eliminating human error and operational bottlenecks so that operators can focus on growth whilst providing the best possible player experience. Our model enables rapid game launches, continuous feature updates, and game innovation at a pace the industry has never seen in this vertical.”
