Gambly and Unabated Merge to Create Gambly Ventures
Gambly Ventures will move people from the idea of a bet to a placed wager as frictionlessly as possible, officials said
Gambly, a company offering AI-powered sports betting copilot solutions, announced a merger with Unabated, a company empowering bettors with cutting-edge tools. The transaction will result in the creation of Gambly Ventures.
A Logical Next Step for the Two Businesses
According to the announcement, Gambly’s AI-powered betslip platform will merge with Unabated’s portfolio of betting solutions and tools, resulting in the creation of Gambly Ventures – a company designed to make players’ betting experiences smoother.
According to the announcement, Gambly Ventures will offer solutions suitable for both casual players seeking AI-powered ChatGPT-like help and serious bettors who wish to stay ahead.
Gambly is the brainchild of DFS veterans Cal Spears and Jonathan Bales, while Unabated was co-founded by Jack Andrews, Matt Snyder, Peter Jennings, Kevin Cassata, Rufus Peabody, and Dan Fabrizio. The two companies have been maintaining close ties for a while, with the current merger representing a logical evolution in their relationship.
Following the merger’s completion, Gambly and Unabated will remain separate brands and will continue to cater to their own audiences in addition to cooperating on Gambly Ventures.
Gambly Ventures to Serve the Full Spectrum of the Betting Market
Company officials commented on the historic merger, praising the opportunities it would bring to both of their teams.
Gambly’s Spears said that the gaming affiliate industry has been facing continuous challenges, which is why many have come to underestimate the potential of affiliation. He suggested that Gambly and Unabated are perfectly positioned to capitalize on the growth of new products, such as prediction markets.
Prediction markets are raising billions, and legacy operators are preparing to enter more than 20 new states. With Gambly’s AI tools and Unabated’s data infrastructure, we’re positioned to capture that growth.

Unabated’s Andrews also weighed in on the matter, saying that the merger will allow his team to maintain its focus on advanced bettors, while expanding its tool set. He emphasized that this will empower advanced and aspiring bettors alike, allowing them to “make sharper bets.”
This merger of engineering talent and product vision allows us to build more efficiently and enables bettors on both platforms to make better wagers. It’s a win/win/win.

Jonathan Bales, who has been named as chief strategy officer of Gambly Ventures, also commented on the matter, saying that his team’s mission is simple and is all about “moving people from the idea of a bet to a placed wager as frictionlessly as possible.” Bales added that the pairing of Gambly’s tech with Unabated’s tools will ensure that the new venture can “serve the full spectrum” of the sports betting market.
