Starting from March 2025, the Novomatic network, which includes over 900 gaming venues, has implemented the new version of SmartAML, an Android tablet application developed by Gruppo Fastal for managing anti-money laundering controls.
Key Features of SmartAML 2.0
Version 2.0 represents a significant technological upgrade from the previous version 1.3.3. Among the main improvements is a new development framework that ensures native Android software compilation and compliance with Google’s Material Design 3, resulting in overall usability benefits.
The architecture, by eliminating the local persistent database, increases application security and enhances operational performance.
Artificial Intelligence Integration
The most innovative element is the pervasive implementation of AI to simplify daily operations and reduce operator workload.
A new back-end server has been developed that provides computer vision services to verify documentation quality and OCR technologies to automatically populate data from document images and gaming tickets.
The system, called “AI/OCR services layer”, uses an agentic application that leverages Document Intelligence services and advanced language models (LLM) from the Microsoft Azure platform to automate data analysis and extraction.
AI functionalities will be progressively activated over the coming weeks, once testing and model adjustments are completed.
