Why we're building Vulti

The Problem with Poker's Present

I've spent the better part of two decades at poker tables around the world. From the crowded floors of the WSOP to local card rooms, I've witnessed the same inefficiencies plague our industry year after year.

Players waste precious hours standing in registration lines. Tournament directors shuffle paper lists while managing complex player movements. Cashiers manually count chips and cash. And poker staking—a fundamental part of the ecosystem—remains trapped in the dark ages of handshake deals and manual calculations.

These aren't just minor inconveniences. They're systemic barriers preventing poker from reaching its full potential in the digital age.

A Digital Revolution for an Analog Game

That's why we created Vulti—to build the technological infrastructure poker has always deserved.

At its core, Vulti creates a seamless ecosystem connecting players and venues through a unified digital identity. Our Universal Player ID (UPID) system gives players a portable poker identity that moves with them across venues worldwide, while our DiamondOps platform gives poker rooms the tools they need to operate with unprecedented efficiency.

We're not just digitizing paper processes—we're reimagining the entire poker experience from the ground up.

"The poker world has remained stubbornly analog in a digital age. After 20 years at the tables and 16 years in UX product design, I've seen both worlds. What poker needs isn't just an app—it needs a comprehensive digital ecosystem that respects the game's traditions while eliminating its inefficiencies. That's exactly what we've built with Vulti."

Beyond Digital Waitlists

Many have attempted to solve pieces of the poker puzzle before. Digital waitlist apps. Tournament tracking software. Player databases. But these fragmented solutions create more problems than they solve.

Vulti takes a fundamentally different approach by creating a comprehensive ecosystem where every component works together:

Players get a mobile app that manages their entire poker journey—from finding games to tracking results, managing finances, and even arranging staking deals.

Operators get a powerful web platform for managing tournaments, cash games, staff, and finances with unprecedented efficiency.

Dealers get purpose-built hardware that eliminates manual reporting and streamlines table management.

All of this is connected through our Universal Player ID system and powered by $VUL, our purpose-built cryptocurrency for poker transactions.

The Benefits Are Transformational

For players, the benefits are immediate and tangible. No more waiting in registration lines. No more paper receipts to keep track of. No more trust issues with staking arrangements. Just a seamless, digital poker experience that lets them focus on the game instead of the logistics.

For operators, the impact on the bottom line is substantial. Reduced staffing costs. Optimized table utilization. Valuable data insights. And most importantly, significantly improved player satisfaction and retention.

Our Path Forward

We've mapped an ambitious but achievable path to market leadership. Our initial focus is on building a robust MVP that delivers immediate value to early adopters. From there, we'll expand functionality, introduce $VUL cryptocurrency, and scale globally.

Our goal is nothing less than becoming the global standard for poker operations, with 80% adoption among major venues within three years of launch.

A New Era for Poker

The poker world is ready for this evolution. Players are demanding it. Venues need it. And technology has finally reached a point where we can deliver it.

Vulti isn't just another poker app—it's the technological foundation for poker's future. By connecting players and venues through a unified digital ecosystem, we're creating new possibilities for how poker is played, managed, and experienced.

The cards have been dealt. Now it's time to play our hand.
