No. 333-289460
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
CXApp
Inc. (the "Company," "we," "our" or "us") hereby transmits our response to the comment
letter received from the staff (the "Staff," "you" or "your") of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") on August 25, 2025, with respect to the above-referenced Registration Statement on Form S-3
filed with the Commission on August 11, 2025 (the "Registration Statement"). The Staff's comment is set forth below
in bold, followed by the Company's response:
Registration
Statement on Form S-3
General
1.
It appears that you are relying on General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 to register the offer and sale of shares to Avondale Capital
pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement. Please confirm that the aggregate market value of securities to be registered and sold under
the Securities Purchase Agreement will represent no more than one-third of the company's public float and are included in your
I.B.6 calculation. In addition, disclose the remaining available capacity under your Securities Purchase Agreement. Refer to Securities
Act Forms Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations 116.21.
Response :
We are not registering the offer and sale of shares to Avondale Capital, LLC ("Avondale") pursuant to either the base prospectus
or the sales agreement prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, and therefore do not believe an amendment to the Registration
Statement is appropriate. The sales agreement prospectus solely covers the potential offer and sale from time to time of shares of our
common stock pursuant to our At the Market Offering Agreement with Maxim Group LLC. Additionally, as previously disclosed, on August
8, 2025, we entered into a waiver agreement with Avondale, pursuant to which Avondale agreed to waive, solely in connection with the
filing of the Registration Statement, the registration rights set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March
26, 2025, by and between us and Avondale. To the extent we later decide to register the offer and sale of shares to Avondale pursuant
to the Registration Statement, if permissible, we would file a prospectus supplement to the base prospectus that sets forth the terms
of such offering.
***
We
thank you for your review of the foregoing. Should you require further information, please contact our counsel, Blake Baron, Esq., at
bjb@msk.com or by telephone at (917) 546-7709.

Re:

Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form
S-1
Filed September 9, 2024
File No. 333-281452
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
On
behalf of our client, CXApp Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and pursuant to the applicable provisions
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder, please find enclosed for filing with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a complete copy of Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No. 1”)
to the above-captioned Registration Statement on Form S-1 of the Company originally filed with the Commission on August 9, 2024
(the “Registration Statement”).
Amendment
No. 1 reflects certain revisions to the Registration Statement in response to the comment letter to Mr. Sheikh, the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer, dated August 27, 2024, from the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) and other updated information.
The
numbered paragraph in bold below set forth the Staff’s comments together with the Company’s responses. Disclosure changes
made in response to the Staff’s comments have been made in Amendment No. 1, which is being filed with the Commission contemporaneously
with the submission of this letter. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in Amendment
No. 1.
Registration
Statement on Form S-1 filed September 9, 2024
General
1.
In a PIPE transaction,
a registered resale of securities is permitted where the investor is irrevocably bound to purchase a set number of securities for
a set purchase price that is not based on a market price or a fluctuating ratio. In addition, there can be no conditions that an
investor can cause not to be satisfied, including conditions related to market price of the securities. Further, the closing of the
private placement of the unissued securities must occur within a short time after the effectiveness of the resale registration statement.
In that regard, we note that pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement with Streeterville Capital, the company will “reserve”
3,049,000 Common Shares for future issuance, the share purchase price is based on the market price, and that Streeterville Capital
will have the right, but not obligation, to purchase from the Company. Please provide us with your analysis regarding your eligibility
to register the resale of the common stock that may be issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. Refer to Securities
Act Sections Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations Questions 134.01 and 139.11.
Response:
The Company respectfully acknowledges the Staff’s comment and provides the following legal analysis as the basis for
registering the resale of the 3,049,000 Common Shares. The information in Questions 134.01 and 139.11 of the Securities Act
Sections Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations were considered as it relates to the Company’s facts and circumstances in
connection with the legal analysis.
On
May 22, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Streeterville Capital, LLC (“Streeterville”),
pursuant to which the Company (i) delivered 40,000 shares of common stock to Streeterville (the “Commitment Shares”), (ii)
issued and sold an initial Pre-Paid Purchase in the principal amount of $2,625,000.00 (the “Initial Pre-Paid Purchase”),
and (iii) may issue and sell one or more Pre-Paid Purchases, in the form substantially similar to the exhibit attached thereto (each,
a “Pre-Paid Purchase”), in the aggregate purchase amount of up to $10,000,000.00, for the purchase of common stock, upon
the terms and subject to the limitations and conditions set forth in such Pre-Paid Purchase.
The
Company acknowledges that the private placement with respect to the sale of up to $10,000,000 of Pre-Paid Purchases is not complete and,
thus, the company is not eligible to register the resale of any shares of common stock related to those additional Pre-Paid Purchases.
However,
the Company advises the Staff that the private placement of the Initial Pre-Paid Purchase was completed on May 22, 2024, when Streeterville
entered into the Securities Purchase Agreement and was bound to purchase the overlying convertible note for $2,625,000, convertible into
a number of common stock for as low as $0.66 per share, or up to 3,977,272.73 shares of common stock. As reflected in the registration
statement, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635 requires Nasdaq listed issuers to obtain shareholder approval for any issuance or potential issuance,
below the “Minimum Price” (as defined by Rule 5635(d)(1)(B)), of stock equal to 20% or more of the voting power outstanding
before issuance. Accordingly, the Company is registering for resale 3,049,000 Common Shares underlying the convertible note, consisting
of 3,009,000 shares of common stock plus the 40,000 Commitment Shares, a number of shares that is equal to less than 20% of the voting
power outstanding before the issuance.
For
the reasons noted above, the Company believes it is eligible to register for resale the Commitment Shares and the Common Shares underlying
the Initial Pre-Paid Purchase.

Dear Khurram Sheikh:
We have conducted a limited review of your registration statement and have the following
comment.
Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe the comment applies to your facts and circumstances
or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your response.
After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and the information you

Registration Statement on Form S-1
General
In a PIPE transaction, a registered resale of securities is permitted where the investor
is irrevocably bound to purchase a set number of securities for a set purchase price that is
not based on a market price or a fluctuating ratio. In addition, there can be no conditions
that an investor can cause not to be satisfied, including conditions related to market price
of the securities. Further, the closing of the private placement of the unissued securities
must occur within a short time after the effectiveness of the resale registration statement.
In that regard, we note that pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement with
Streeterville Capital, the company will “reserve” 3,049,000 Common Shares for future
issuance, the share purchase price is based on the market price, and that Streeterville
Capital will have the right, but not obligation, to purchase from the Company. Please
provide us with your analysis regarding your eligibility to register the resale of the 1.

common stock that may be issued pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement. Refer to
Securities Act Sections Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations Questions 134.01 and
139.11.
We remind you that the company and its management are responsible for the accuracy
and adequacy of their disclosures, notwithstanding any review, comments, action or absence of
action by the staff.
Refer to Rules 460 and 461 regarding requests for acceleration. Please allow adequate
time for us to review any amendment prior to the requested effective date of the registration
statement.
Please contact Charli Wilson at 202-551-6388 or Matthew Derby at 202-551-3334 with
any other questions.

underlying the warrants, which are comprised of 13,800,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants and 10,280,000

Disclose that cash proceeds associated with the exercise of warrants to purchase your common
stock are dependent on your stock price. If the warrants are out the money, please disclose
the likelihood that warrant holders will not exercise their warrants and the company will
not receive proceeds from the exercise of the warrants. Furthermore, disclose you may not
receive cash upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants since these warrants may
be exercised on a cashless basis. Provide similar disclosure in the prospectus summary, risk
factors, MD&A and use of proceeds section. As applicable, describe the impact on your
liquidity and update the discussion on the ability of your company to fund your operations
on a prospective basis with your current cash on hand.

note the significant number of redemptions of your Class A common stock in connection
with your business combination and that the shares being registered for resale will constitute
a considerable percentage of your public float. We also note that most of the shares being
registered for resale were purchased by the selling securityholders for prices considerably
below the current market price of the Class A common stock. Highlight the significant negative
impact sales of shares on this registration statement could have on the public trading price of the Class A common stock.

addressed in our comments. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with
information so we may better understand your disclosure.
Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement and providing the

4.For each of the shares and warrants being registered for resale, disclose the price that the
selling securityholders paid for such securities.
5.Disclose the exercise price of the warrants compared to the market price of the underlying
securities. Disclose that cash proceeds associated with the exercise of warrants to purchase
your common stock are dependent on your stock price. If the warrants are out the money,
please disclose the likelihood that warrant holders will not exercise their warrants and the
company will not receive proceeds from the exercise of the warrants. Furthermore,
disclose you may not receive cash upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants
since these warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis. Provide similar disclosure in
the prospectus summary, risk factors, MD&A and use of proceeds section. As applicable,
describe the impact on your liquidity and update the discussion on the ability of your
company to fund your operations on a prospective basis with your current cash on hand.
6.We note the significant number of redemptions of your Class A common stock in
connection with your business combination and that the shares being registered for resale
will constitute a considerable percentage of your public float. We also note that most of
the shares being registered for resale were purchased by the selling securityholders for
prices considerably below the current market price of the Class A common stock.
Highlight the significant negative impact sales of shares on this registration statement
could have on the public trading price of the Class A common stock.

Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement on Form S-4
Filed January 10, 2023
File No. 333-267938
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client,
KINS Technology Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and pursuant to the applicable provisions of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder, please find enclosed for filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a complete copy of Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”)
to the above-captioned Registration Statement on Form S-4 of the Company originally filed with the Commission on October 19,
2022 (the “Registration Statement”).
Amendment No. 3 reflects
certain revisions to the Registration Statement in response to the comment letter to Mr. Sheikh, the Company’s Chief Executive
Officer, dated December 28, 2022, from the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) and other updated information.
The numbered paragraph in
bold below set forth the Staff’s comments together with the Company’s responses. Disclosure changes made in response to the
Staff’s comments have been made in Amendment No. 3, which is being filed with the Commission contemporaneously with the submission
of this letter. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in Amendment No. 3.

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,
page 96
4. We note you anticipate the Business
Combination will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. You disclosed several reasons
why CXApp has been determined to be the accounting acquirer including that CXApp’s
management will comprise the majority of New CXApp. However, we also note on page 231
that Mr. Khurram P. Sheikh, KINS’ current Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and
Chief Financial Officer, will serve as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the combined
company. Additionally, Messrs. Sheikh, Martino, and Eisnor, currently KINS’ directors,
have been nominated to serve on the Combined Company Board. Please explain to us your consideration
of the post-closing composition of the Board and designation of the Chief Executive Officer
when concluding that CXApp, and not KINS Technology Group, is the accounting acquirer. Also,
clarify on page 96 the contemplated composition of the Combined Company’s Board
and management.
Response: Upon further consideration
of the role of Mr. Sheikh in the hiring of the post-closing Chief Financial Officer, Michael Angel, the post-closing management
structure and board structure, we have determined KINS Technology Group Inc. to be the accounting acquirer. The Company has revised the
disclosure on pages 54, 58, 101, 107, 170-171 and 235 of Amendment No. 3.

Amendment No. 1 to Registration
Statement on Form S-4
Filed December 6, 2022
File No. 333-267938
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client,
KINS Technology Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and pursuant to the applicable provisions of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder, please find enclosed for filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a complete copy of Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”)
to the above-captioned Registration Statement on Form S-4 of the Company originally filed with the Commission on October 19,
2022 (the “Registration Statement”).
Amendment No. 2 reflects

Registration Statement on Form S-4
filed December 6, 2022
Preservation of the Intended Tax Treatment
of Certain Aspects of the Transactions, page 40
1. We note your responses to prior comments 10 and 11 regarding the consequences to New CXApp stockholders
should the IRS disallow the tax-free treatment of the spin-off made pursuant to the Reverse Morris Trust. Either here or in a Q&A,
please clearly indicate whether legacy Inpixon stockholders who will receive New CXApp shares as part of the spin-off and eventually the
business combination with the public SPAC KINS Technology must maintain a 50.1% ownership of New CXApp for at least two years and that
the consequences of the failure to do so could result in a taxable gain to Inpixon that New CXApp may have to indemnify. Clarify
how, or if, legacy Inpixon stockholders are restricted from selling their shares to prevent their ownership percentage from falling below
50.1%, such as through the lock-up agreements, Class C shares or restrictions or other methods.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 42 of Amendment No. 2. We do not
anticipate placing any restrictions on shareholders’ ability to alienate shares in the market. The rules around 355(e) typically
address corporate led or corporate initiated actions such as significant acquisitions – taxable tender offers, tax-free combinations
with other corporations, or public offerings that result in a failure for legacy shareholders to maintain 50.1% following the distribution
rather than resale transactions at the shareholder level by the shareholder. As a result, legacy shareholders will not be subject to transfer
restrictions except the transfer restrictions applicable to the Class C common stock. In addition, as discussed in our response
to Comment #2 below, even if the IRC Section 355(e) gain is triggered, we do not anticipate any gain.
2. We note your disclosure on page 92 that Inpixon is currently considering strategic alternatives
that include divesting further portions of its remaining business. Please disclose in the summary the possible resulting taxable
gain that Inpixon may incur from the spin-off and divestiture of the enterprise application business of Inpixon and that New
CXApp would not indemnify any resulting taxable gain. Further, clarify that if there is a taxable gain payable by Inpixon whether
the restrictions as to issuances of new equity, mergers and other restricted transactions for two years would no longer apply.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 34-35 of Amendment No. 2. Inpixon
has prepared a detailed estimated Section 355(e) gain calculation in order to determine the gain that it could recognize if
it were in fact to effectuate a transaction after the Merger that triggered the Section 355(e) gain. Based on its financial
statements reported as of September 30, 2022, Inpixon estimates that there will not be any Section 355(e) taxable
gain. Although such estimated calculation cannot be finalized until closing, Inpixon does not anticipate any meaningful changes to
the calculation. Even if Inpixon triggered such Section 355(e) gain, KINS and New CXApp would still not be able to engage in
certain transactions for the two year period beginning on the date of Distribution if such transaction places the tax-free status of the
Distribution and the Merger at risk, without first seeking a waiver from Inpixon or obtaining an opinion from a nationally recognized
law firm or accounting firm at a “will” level that such transaction will not adversely impact the intended tax treatment of
the Distribution and the Merger.
Interests of CXApp’s Directors and
Executive Officers in the Merger, page 49
3. Please disclose the combined beneficial interests of Inpixon and its related parties (including
but not limited to Nadir Ali) in KINS Technology, including indirect ownership through KINS Capital based on their membership interests
in Cardinal Venture Holdings which owns certain interests in KINS Capital.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 52 and 172 of Amendment No. 2 to
include additional disclosure regarding the combined beneficial interests of Inpixon and its related parties, including through indirect
ownership.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial
Information, page 96
4. We note you anticipate the Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. You
disclosed several reasons why CXApp has been determined to be the accounting acquirer including that CXApp’s management
will comprise the majority of New CXApp. However, we also note on page 231 that Mr. Khurram P. Sheikh, KINS’ current
Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, will serve as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the combined
company. Additionally, Messrs. Sheikh, Martino, and Eisnor, currently KINS’ directors, have been nominated to serve on
the Combined Company Board. Please explain to us your consideration of the post-closing composition of the Board and designation
of the Chief Executive Officer when concluding that CXApp, and not KINS Technology Group, is the accounting acquirer. Also,
clarify on page 96 the contemplated composition of the Combined Company’s Board and management.
Response: The Company
acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure set forth in “—Management of New CXApp After
the Merger” beginning on page 252 of Amendment No. 2. The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully
advises that the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) does not provide a hierarchy to explain how to assess factors that
influence the identification of the acquirer in a business combination, effectively concluding that no single criterion is more
significant than any other; the determination of the accounting acquirer requires an evaluation of all factors in aggregate. When
assessing the composition of management in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 805-10-55-12(d), the Company
considered the entity whose management is able to dominate the management of the combined entity, in addition to the relative number
of executive positions taken by the combining entities’ former management teams and to the roles, responsibilities, and
seniority of those positions. When completing this evaluation, although Mr. Khurram P. Sheikh, KINS’ current Chairman, Chief
Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, will serve as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company; a
new appointment will be made for Chief Financial Officer, upon which Michael Angel has accepted the position as Chief Financial
Officer upon closing of the transaction, and the remaining management team including EVP of Customer Success and Revenue Operations,
Director of Marketing, Chief Product Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Associate General Counsel, Controller, and Vice President of
Human Resources will be continuing management of CXApp. The Company believes this to be a moderate indicator of CXApp being the
accounting acquirer. While it is expected that existing KINS board members will hold three of the five director seats; Inpixon is
nominating the remaining two board members including Ms. Shanti Priya who has significant finance experience and will be the
Chairperson of the Audit Committee. The Company notes, other than Mr. Sheikh, the remaining four of the five directors are
determined to be independent under the listing requirements of Nasdaq upon which two have been nominated by each of KINS and
Inpixon. The Company further considered the proposed class of each of the Board members, as well as the committees each Board member
is anticipated to be a member of. When evaluating all the factors in the aggregate which include CXApp, as a group, will retain a
majority of the outstanding shares of New CXApp as of the closing of the Business Combination, CXApp’s management will
comprise the majority of New CXApp, CXApp represents a significant majority of the assets of New CXApp, and CXApp’s business
will comprise the ongoing operations of New CXApp, it is the Company’s determination that the Business Combination will be
accounted for as a reverse recapitalization.
Transaction Accounting Adjustments to Unaudited
Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet, page 103
5. Explain to us your consideration of providing a pro forma adjustment for the $225,000 loan from the
Sponsor to the Company for each share of Class A common stock that is not redeemed in connection with the stockholder vote to approve
the extension under the Minimum Redemption Scenario. If deemed a “loan,” please also disclose the repayment
terms in a corresponding note. We note your disclosure on page 32.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and respectfully advises that Contribution(s) related to the Extension, will be
made from existing working capital of the Company. In evaluating the need for providing a pro forma adjustment related to a loan from
the Sponsor to the Company, the Company looked to the guidance contained under S-X 11-01(a)(8), which states that a registrant presents
pro forma financial information for “an event or transaction that has occurred or is probable for which disclosure of pro forma
financial information would be material to investors.” As such, since a loan from the Sponsor to the Company related to the Extension
has not occurred and at this time is not probable, the Company has reflected an extension payment made from Company working capital as
a pro forma adjustment in conjunction with redemptions related to the Extension.
Opinion of KNAV P.A., page 153
6. We reissue prior comment 26 regarding your description of the KNAV fairness opinion, and prior comment
25 with regards to the GV discounted cash flow analysis. Please revise this section to clarify the specific financial information
and projections that were provided to KNAV and to provide detailed support for the ultimate conclusions reached. For example, provide
an illustrative table that includes the unlevered free cash flow for each period used in the discounted cash flow analyses. Further,
please identify the other companies used in your comparative analysis to other public companies and provide the metrics used and calculated
for each method.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 165-169 and pages 156-159 of Amendment
No. 2 to disclose more details about the KNAV fairness opinion and the GV discounted cash flow analysis, respectively, including
the specific financial information and projections that were provided to KNAV, the comparable companies and free cash flow multiples that
were evaluated, and additional support for the ultimate conclusions reached.

7. We reissue prior comment 29 regarding your industry and market data. Please identify the specific

the research companies and reports that were used to support our industry and market data disclosures.
Key Factors Affecting Design Reactor’s Results of Operations,
page 214
8. We reissue prior comment 34, as we are unable to locate the changes that are responsive to this comment.
Please provide a more detailed description of your customer base, such as the number of customers from year to year and any concentration in
geographic location, size, or industry. Additionally please clarify whether your management uses any key metrics to
evaluate customer growth or penetration.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 234 of Amendment No. 2 to provide
the following description of our customer base and key metrics used by management to evaluate customer growth or penetration, noting that
it has focused on the total number of current customer campuses as opposed to number of customers which management believes to be a more
meaningful metric to understand performance:
Our customer base is currently
operating within approximately 17 different industries, including approximately 24% in software and technology, 24% in healthcare and
20% in retail. Approximately 85% of our customers are headquartered in the United States, however, our products are deployed across more
than 400 customer campuses located in approximately 240 cities and over 55 countries throughout the world.
Our management uses key metrics
such as total revenue growth, recurring and non-recurring revenue, existing customer expansion rates, number of customer campuses (which management
believes is a more meaningful metric to measure performance than total number of customers), and churn rates to measure
customer growth and market penetration. The CXApp carve-out financials show that our revenue has increased from approximately $2.3M for
the twelve months ending December 2021 to approximately $6.4M for the twelve-month period ending December 31, 2022 (which
was primarily attributable to the addition of $4.1 million in revenue as a result of the acquisition of Design Reactor in April of 2021).
Approximately 51% of that revenue was recurring in 2022 and approximately 56% was recurring in 2021. Approximately 4

Dear Khurram P. Sheikh:
We have reviewed your amended registration statement and have the following
comments. In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide us with information so we
may better understand your disclosure.
Please respond to this letter by amending your registration statement and providing the
requested information. If you do not believe our comments apply to your facts and
circumstances or do not believe an amendment is appropriate, please tell us why in your
response.
After reviewing any amendment to your registration statement and the information you
provide in response to these comments, we may have additional comments. Unless we note
otherwise, our references to prior comments are to comments in our November 18, 2022 letter.
Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed December 6, 2022
Preservation of the Intended Tax Treatment of Certain Aspects of the Transactions, page 40
1.We note your responses to prior comments 10 and 11 regarding the consequences to New
CXApp stockholders should the IRS disallow the tax-free treatment of the spin-off made
pursuant to the Reverse Morris Trust. Either here or in a Q&A, please clearly indicate
whether legacy Inpixon stockholders who will receive New CXApp shares as part of the
spin-off and eventually the business combination with the public SPAC KINS Technology
must maintain a 50.1% ownership of New CXApp for at least two years and that the
consequences of the failure to do so could result in a taxable gain to Inpixon that New
CXApp may have to indemnify. Clarify how, or if, legacy Inpixon stockholders are

restricted from selling their shares to prevent their ownership percentage from
falling below 50.1%, such as through the lock-up agreements, Class C shares or
restrictions or other methods.
2.We note your disclosure on page 92 that Inpixon is currently considering strategic
alternatives that include divesting further portions of its remaining business. Please
disclose in the summary the possible resulting taxable gain that Inpixon may incur
from the spin-off and divestiture of the enterprise application business of Inpixon and
that New CXApp would not indemnify any resulting taxable gain. Further, clarify that if
there is a taxable gain payable by Inpixon whether the restrictions as to issuances of new
equity, mergers and other restricted transactions for two years would no longer apply.
Interests of CXApp's Directors and Executive Officers in the Merger, page 49
3.Please disclose the combined beneficial interests of Inpixon and its related parties
(including but not limited to Nadir Ali) in KINS Technology, including indirect ownership
through KINS Capital based on their membership interests in Cardinal Venture Holdings
which owns certain interests in KINS Capital.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information, page 96
4.We note you anticipate the Business Combination will be accounted for as a reverse
recapitalization. You disclosed several reasons why CXApp has been determined to be
the accounting acquirer including that CXApp’s management will comprise the majority
of New CXApp. However, we also note on page 231 that Mr. Khurram P. Sheikh, KINS'
current Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Chief Financial Officer, will serve as the
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the combined company. Additionally, Messrs.
Sheikh, Martino, and Eisnor, currently KINS' directors, have been nominated to serve on
the Combined Company Board. Please explain to us your consideration of the post-
closing composition of the Board and designation of the Chief Executive Officer when
concluding that CXApp, and not KINS Technology Group, is the accounting acquirer.
Also, clarify on page 96 the contemplated composition of the Combined Company's
Board and management.
Transaction Accounting Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance
Sheet, page 103
5.Explain to us your consideration of providing a pro forma adjustment for the $225,000
loan from the Sponsor to the Company for each share of Class A common stock that is not
redeemed in connection with the stockholder vote to approve the extension under
the Minimum Redemption Scenario. If deemed a "loan," please also disclose the
repayment terms in a corresponding note. We note your disclosure on page 32.

Registration
Statement on Form S-4
Filed October 19, 2022
File No. 333-267938
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On
behalf of our client, KINS Technology Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and pursuant to the applicable
provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder, please find enclosed for filing with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a complete copy of Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment
No. 1”) to the above-captioned Registration Statement on Form S-4 of the Company originally filed with the Commission
on October 19, 2022 (the “Registration Statement”).
Amendment
No. 1 reflects certain revisions to the Registration Statement in response to the comment letter to Mr. Sheikh, the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer, dated November 18, 2022, from the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) and other updated
information.
The
numbered paragraphs in bold below set forth the Staff’s comments together with the Company’s responses. Disclosure
changes made in response to the Staff’s comments have been made in Amendment No. 1, which is being filed with the Commission
contemporaneously with the submission of this letter. Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned
to them in Amendment No. 1.
Registration
Statement on Form S-4 filed October 19, 2022
General
1. Please
update the accompanying financial statements and the related pro forma presentation through
the period ended September 30, 2022.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has updated the accompanying financial statements and the related pro forma presentation
through the period ended September 30, 2022 throughout Amendment No. 1.
2. We
note that the parties negotiated the enterprise value of CXApp at $69 million, subject to
adjustments. Highlight that Inpixon purchased Design Reactor, Inc. and its CXApp
software for a mix of cash and stock valued at $45 million in 2020. Additionally, to
provide appropriate context for investors, disclose Inpixon's current market capitalization.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 113-114 of Amendment No. 1 to include
additional disclosure regarding the purchase price paid by Inpixon in connection with its acquisition of the outstanding capital stock
of Design Reactor, Inc. in April of 2021 and Inpixon’s current market capitalization.
3. In
the summary section and in a Q&A, provide a complete description of the lock-up agreements,
including to whom each agreement applies, the respective durations, and the circumstances
under which the lock-ups may be released. Clarify any differences between the
lock-up agreements for Class A and Class C shares. We note, for example,
that your Anchor Investor, BlackRock, is not a party to the Stockholder Support Agreement.
Please clarify whether BlackRock is subject to any surviving lock-up agreement post-business
combination and whether it is obligated to vote in favor of all of the proposals.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 21, 41-42 and 133-135 of Amendment No. 1
to include additional disclosure of the lock-up agreements for each relevant party and clarified that the Direct Anchor Investors are
subject to their surviving lock-up agreement post-business combination and are not obligated to vote in favor of all of the proposals.
4. We
note that Inpixon will receive the Distribution Tax Opinion regarding the intended
tax treatment of the Distribution and certain related transactions, and that the Tax
Matters Agreement will require KINS and CXApp to comply with the representations made in
the materials submitted to legal counsel in connection with the Distribution Tax Opinion.
Please confirm your intention to file the Distribution Tax Opinion as an exhibit to this
registration statement. Additionally, please tell us whether counsel will provide a
separate tax opinion to support the discussion of tax consequences to U.S. investors
as set forth on page 229.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the exhibit list on page II-2 of Amendment No. 1 to include
a reference to the Distribution Tax Opinion to be delivered by RSM US LLP. See Exhibit 8.1. In addition, pursuant to Staff Legal
Bulletin No. 19, an opinion from either legal counsel or an independent accountant may be provided, therefore it is not anticipated
that a separate tax opinion by counsel will be provided.
5. Given
that the vast majority of Class A stockholders have already redeemed their shares,
please disclose, if true, that as a result of such redemptions and the existence of the Support
Agreements, Class B stockholders have a sufficient percentage of votes to approve
the business combination.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages iii, 26, 27, 45, 161, 166, 169, 171, 172, 178,
and 179 of Amendment No. 1 to disclose that as a result of redemptions, it is expected that the shares of common stock held by the sponsors
will be sufficient to establish quorum and to pass each of the proposals, including the business combination.
6. We
note that you filed a preliminary proxy statement in efforts to solicit stockholder approval to
extend the life of the SPAC through June 15, 2023. Please update your Form S-4
to address this extension vote, the potential possible removal of the $5,000,001 net asset
requirement, the Sponsor Loan to fund a bonus payment to non-redeeming stockholders, and
the likelihood that further redemptions will concentrate more voting power with the Sponsor.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 32 and 181-182 of Amendment No. 1 to disclose
more details about the extension special meeting.
7. With
a view toward disclosure, please tell us whether your sponsor is, is controlled by, or has
substantial ties with a non-U.S. person. If so, also include risk factor disclosure that
addresses how this fact could impact your ability to complete your initial business combination.
For instance, discuss the risk to investors that you may not be able to complete an initial
business combination with a U.S. target company should the transaction be subject to review
by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States
(CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited. Disclose that as a result, the pool of potential targets
with which you could complete an initial business combination may be limited. Further, disclose
that the time necessary for government review of the transaction or a decision to prohibit
the transaction could prevent you from completing an initial business combination and require
you to liquidate. Disclose the consequences of liquidation to investors, such as the losses
of the investment opportunity in a target company, any price appreciation in the combined
company, and the warrants, which would expire worthless.
Response:
The Company’s sponsor is a Delaware limited liability company and is not controlled by, and does not have substantial ties with,
any non-U.S. person or entity. Accordingly, the Company does not intend to make any additional disclosures in future filings.
Summary, page 30
8. Revise
to clarify the difference between CXApp and Design Reactor. For example, when
distinguishing between CXApp and Design Reactor in the questions and answers section, explain
that Design Reactor was formerly doing business under the name CXApp, but in this
registration statement, CXApp refers to the newly formed Delaware holding company.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 17 of Amendment No. 1 to include
a new section titled “Who are the parties to the transactions described in this document?”
9. Prominently
disclose that the contemplated spin-off and subsequent merger are structured as a reverse
Morris Trust transaction and that this structure is intended to result in a tax-efficient
disposition of the current CXApp business for Inpixon and Inpixon shareholders. Describe
what a reverse Morris Trust transaction is and briefly discuss why the parties chose this
structure. Your description should include a discussion of the requirements of
the Reverse Morris Trust transaction under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Internal
Revenue Code.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 33-34 of Amendment No. 1 to include
a new section titled “Transaction Structure.”
10. Address
the risks to current KINS stockholders and to security holders of the combined company should
the parties fail to meet the requirements to preserve the intended tax treatment. Disclose
any indemnification provisions that will benefit Inpixon and Inpixon shareholders if the
distribution and related transactions do not qualify as a reorganization under Sections
355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code. Further, describe the limitations to the combined
company's operations and restrictions on future transactions that are necessary to preserve
the intended tax treatment and discuss how these restrictions may impact the combined
company's business.
Response:
In response to the Staff’s comment, KINS added disclosure in the last two paragraphs of the new section titled “Transaction
Structure” on page 34 of Amendment No. 1.
11. We
note the parties' intention that holders of CXApp Common Stock will own more than 50%
of the common stock of New CXApp immediately following the Merger. Please clarify how
you will ensure that historic parent shareholders will own more than 50% of the vote and
value of the post-business combination company.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on pages 21 and 40 of Amendment No. 1 to clarify
how historic parent shareholders will own more than 50% of the vote and value of the post-business combination company.
12. With
respect to the previous acquisition of Design Reactor, Inc. by Inpixon, please clarify
how the spin-off and subsequent merger will impact the remaining shares subject to any Earn-Out
Provision.
Response:
The spin-off and subsequent merger will have no impact on the earn out provisions that were applicable to the Inpixon acquisition of
Design Reactor as such conditions and corresponding payouts were satisfied by Inpixon prior to the end of the first quarter of 2022.
As a result, there have not been any further amendments in Amendment No. 1 with respect to this comment.
Risk Factors, page 53
13. Please
add a risk factor to highlight that shares of post-business combination SPACs commonly decline
in value. Your risk factor should address that the Sponsor and the Anchor Investor
purchased shares at prices below the initial public offering price and maybe incentivized
to sell their shares. Similarly, the address that the CXApp stockholders prior
to the merger may acquire shares below market carrying cost and may be incentivized
to sell their shares. Any resulting sales may lower the trading price of the Class A
common stock. Further, if the price declines below the $11.50 per share exercise price,
it is unlikely warrants will be exercised and New CXApp will be unable to raise further proceeds
from the warrants.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and has revised the disclosure on page 73 of Amendment No. 1 to include
this additional risk factor.
14. Please
add a risk factor that addresses the substantial amount of public Class A stockholders that

Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule
14A filed November 8, 2022
1. Staff’s Comment:
With a view toward disclosure, please tell us whether your sponsor is, is controlled by, has substantial ties with a non-U.S.
person. If so, also include risk factor disclosure that addresses how this fact could impact your ability to complete your initial business
combination. For instance, discuss the risk to investors that you may not be able to complete an initial business combination with a U.S.
target company should the transaction be subject to review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on Foreign Investment in
the United States (CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited. Disclose that as a result, the pool of potential targets with which you could complete
an initial business combination may be limited. Further, disclose that the time necessary for government review of the transaction or

Disclose the consequences of liquidation to investors, such as the losses of the investment opportunity in a target company, any price

Response:
The Company’s sponsor is a Delaware limited liability company and is not controlled by, and does not have substantial ties with,
any non-U.S. person or entity. Accordingly, the Company does not intend to make any additional disclosures in future filings.
2. Staff’s Comment: Given that the vast majority of Class A stockholders have already
redeemed their shares, please disclose prominently, if true, that as a result of such redemptions and the existence of the Support Agreements,
Class B stockholders have a sufficient percentage of votes to approve both the business combination and the request for an extension
of the life of the SPAC pertaining to the proposals within this proxy statement.
Response:
The Company acknowledges the Staff’s comment and intends to include in the definitive proxy statement the following disclosure in
the stockholder letter, and on page 5, page 13, page 27, page 31 and page 32 in the paragraphs relating to the
required vote:
“The Sponsor, in its capacity
as a KINS stockholder, intends to vote the KINS Founder Shares owned by it in favor of each of the proposals. On June 10, 2022, in
connection with the Company’s previous extension, 26,661,910 shares of Class A Common Stock (representing approximately 96.6%
of the then outstanding Class A Common Stock) were tendered for redemption and redeemed, resulting in 938,080 shares of Class A
Common Stock remaining. As a result, Sponsor’s 6,150,000 Founder Shares now represent approximately 78.46% of the total voting power
of the Company. Accordingly, it is expected that the shares of KINS Common Stock held by Sponsor will be sufficient to establish quorum
and to pass each of the Amendment Proposal, the Trust Extension Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal.”

combination. For instance, discuss the risk to investors that you may not be able to
complete an initial business combination with a U.S. target company should the
transaction be subject to review by a U.S. government entity, such as the Committee on
Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), or ultimately prohibited. Disclose that
as a result, the pool of potential targets with which you could complete an initial business
combination may be limited. Further, disclose that the time necessary for government
review of the transaction or a decision to prohibit the transaction could prevent you from
completing an initial business combination and require you to liquidate. Disclose the
consequences of liquidation to investors, such as the losses of the investment opportunity
in a target company, any price appreciation in the combined company, and the warrants,
which would expire worthless.

Summary, page 30
8.Revise to clarify the difference between CXApp and Design Reactor. For example, when
distinguishing between CXApp and Design Reactor in the questions and answers section,
explain that Design Reactor was formerly doing business under the name CXApp, but in
this registration statement, CXApp refers to the newly formed Delaware holding
company.
9.Prominently disclose that the contemplated spin-off and subsequent merger are structured
as a reverse Morris Trust transaction and that this structure is intended to result in a tax-
efficient disposition of the current CXApp business for Inpixon and Inpixon
shareholders. Describe what a reverse Morris Trust transaction is and briefly discuss why
the parties chose this structure. Your description should include a discussion of the
requirements of the Reverse Morris Trust transaction under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D)
of the Internal Revenue Code.
10.Address the risks to current KINS stockholders and to security holders of the combined
company should the parties fail to meet the requirements to preserve the intended tax
treatment. Disclose any indemnification provisions that will benefit Inpixon and Inpixon
shareholders if the distribution and related transactions do not qualify as a reorganization
under Sections 355 and 368(a)(1)(D) of the Code. Further, describe the limitations to the
combined company's operations and restrictions on future transactions that are necessary
to preserve the intended tax treatment and discuss how these restrictions may impact the
combined company's business.
11.We note the parties' intention that holders of CXApp Common Stock will own more than
50% of the common stock of New CXApp immediately following the Merger. Please
clarify how you will ensure that historic parent shareholders will own more than 50% of
the vote and value of the post-business combination company.
12.With respect to the previous acquisition of Design Reactor, Inc. by Inpixon, please clarify
how the spin-off and subsequent merger will impact the remaining shares subject to any
Earn-Out Provision.
Risk Factors, page 53
13.Please add a risk factor to highlight that shares of post-business combination SPACs
commonly decline in value. Your risk factor should address that the Sponsor and the
Anchor Investor purchased shares at prices below the initial public offering price and may
be incentivized to sell their shares. Similarly, the address that the CXApp stockholders
prior to the merger may acquire shares below market carrying cost and may be
incentivized to sell their shares. Any resulting sales may lower the trading price of the
Class A common stock. Further, if the price declines below the $11.50 per share exercise
price, it is unlikely warrants will be exercised and New CXApp will be unable to raise
further proceeds from the warrants.

14.Please add a risk factor that addresses the substantial amount of public Class A
stockholders that have already redeemed their shares prior to the stockholder vote to
extend the termination date of the SPAC. Given that many of the remaining stockholders
will be subject to lock-up agreements and may not be able to sell their shares on the
Nasdaq, the public float and trading volume may be very small. As a result, the trading
price of the Class A common stock may be volatile.
The Sponsor, its investors and its and their affiliates (which include members of the KINS Board
and management) ..., page 66
15.The last sentence in this risk factor indicates that if KINS "is able to complete the Merger,
the KINS Private Placement Warrants...will become worthless." If true, revise to reflect
that the Private Placement Warrants will become worthless if the merger is not completed.
Unaudited Pro forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
Description of the Merger Agreement, page 90
16.Refer to the assumptions regarding the minimum and maximum redemption scenarios on
page 91 and the table on the pro forma ownership of KINS common stock following the
business combination on page 92. Please disaggregate in the table on page 92 the
holdings of the Sponsor, BlackRock and related parties (including but not limited to
Inpixon) so that the Sponsor's holdings of KINS Class A common stock are transparent
and align with the descriptions of exchanges of its Class B common stock and certain
forfeitures by Direct Anchor Investors as described in the foregoing assumptions and
explanatory footnotes.
17.Please disclose why the Sponsor is receiving less shares of KINS Class A common stock
in exchange for its Class B common stock under the minimum redemption scenario. Also,
since the holders of Class B shares may exchange their shares into a number of Class A
shares based on the redemption level, depending on whether they are the Sponsor or
Direct Anchor Investors, provide us your analysis as to whether the Class B shares:
•should be classified as a liability under ASC 480-10-25-14. In this regard, it appears
the Class B shares contain an unconditional obligation to issue a variable number of
shares depending on variations in something other than the fair value of KINS
Technology's equity shares.
•may contain an embedded feature that needs to be bifurcated and accounted for as a
derivative. Refer to ASC 815-15-25-1 and ASC 815-40-15.
18.Refer to footnote (4) on page 92. Please provide additional context regarding the
circumstances related to the Direct Anchor Investors' forfeiture to Sponsor of
525,000 shares of KINS Class B Common Stock prior to closing.
19.Refer to footnote (5) on page 92. Please provide historical background information
regarding Inpixon's initial and existing interests in KINS.

20.Refer to footnote (6) on page 92. With a view towards expanded disclosure, please
explain the significance and intended consequence of the provision in the Sponsor's
Agreement that the "total amount of shares of New CXApp Common Stock issued to
CXApp Stockholders (as of immediately after consummation of the Distribution) at the
Closing will exceed the total amount of shares of New CXApp Common Stock issued to
all other parties at the Closing by one share."
Background to the Business Combination, page 127
21.Please provide more details of the circumstance and negotiations surrounding the $10
million cash contribution and why this term was first offered and later accepted. Further,
please clarify whether there were discussions as to whether the final cash and cash
equivalents balance at the time of the merger would solely be the $10 million cash
contribution or if any of the approximately $5 million of cash as June 30, 2022 would also
stay with the CXApp post-business combination.
Certain Projected Financial Information of the Enterprise Apps Business, page 141
22.On page 142, as part of your disclosure of the projections provided to and relied upon by
KINS and the Board for purposes of its financial analyses, you reference both "actual" and
projected December 31, 2022 revenues, adjusted EBITDA and gross margins. Please
clarify whether the “actual” financial information is referring to information as of
December 31, 2021.
23.Please identify the specific dollar values of the projected 2022 and 2023 revenues and
adjusted EBITDA. Additionally, revise to disclose all material assumptions that were
used to formulate the projections, as distinguished from "the key elements" of the
projections.
24.With respect to your reference to a 181% revenue growth rate to $6.3 million, which
appears to refer to the growth rate from fiscal year 2020 to 2021 for revenues, please
clarify whether this growth rate relates to the organic growth rate of the underlying
products of Design Reactor, Inc. Your MD&A refers to this growth rate related to the
acquisition of the CXApp in the second quarter of 2020.
25.Please provide more details, including specific forecasted unlevered cash flows by year
that was provided by CXApp management, as to how GVS calculated the discounted cash
flows. Similarly, clarify the EV/Revenue ratio used for the calculation of CXApp’s was
based on 22E and 23E figures, not 20E and 21E for the Selected Companies Analysis.
Further, we note the comparable companies are significantly larger than Design
Reactor/CXApp. Provide supplemental disclosure addressing any risk that the use of this
sample of comparable companies may result in an inflated or overstated valuation.

forum provision in your certificate of incorporation will not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by
the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other claim for which federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. Please revise your
