How can operators avoid losing millions with security-first aggregation?

In this episode of Connected with Pragmatic Solutions, our CEO Ashley Lang speaks to Alexandre Tomic, founder of Alea, to explore how they’re simplifying content distribution for operators and delivering massive reach for studios.

Alexandre explains how Alea takes a partner-first approach to aggregation, intentionally avoiding platform development to focus on secure, API-driven game delivery. Their model prioritises speed to market, integration stability, and commercial efficiency - empowering operators to expand faster, simplify compliance, and distribute content more intelligently.
