Spribe

Spribe was founded in 2018 by David Natroshvili and released Aviator in 2019 — a crash format in which a multiplier climbs from 1.00x and can crash at any moment, with all players in the same round and a visible list of other players' cashouts. The social layer and the low-friction format travelled well in markets where slots had little cultural foothold, and Aviator became dominant in India, Brazil, Nigeria and elsewhere.

Spribe added a catalogue of turbo games around it and expanded into regulated European markets. Its headquarters is genuinely unclear: industry directories variously give Georgia, Ukraine, Poland and Malta, and the company publishes no registered address; its founder is Georgian, which makes Georgia the most likely base. The UK Gambling Commission suspended its gambling-software licence after Spribe acknowledged that Aviator had been hosted under the wrong licence type — a remote casino game host licence was required. It won a UK High Court injunction against an Aviator imitator in 2025. The crash category it popularised has been copied widely, so a casino advertising 'Aviator' may be running Spribe's original or a competitor's clone.
