“Can NXTsoft become the universal API connectivity layer that enables US community banks and credit unions to embed any FinTech service without custom integrations?”
NXTsoft evolved from a data connectivity and data migration company for financial institutions into a full open banking infrastructure provider. The company's 'Connectivity as a Service' and OmniPlatform API offerings position it as middleware between core banking processors (such as Jack Henry) and FinTech applications, enabling banks and credit unions to consume third-party services without direct integrations. The NXTsoft Marketplace represents its bid to become the API aggregation layer for US community financial institutions navigating open banking regulatory change. The company has since rebranded its identity partially under 'Kinective' (kinective.io).
