Ai: Bernabè takes the field with a team of ex-Tim managers. He founds the startup TechVisory and launches the first products

After Eni, Telecom Italia and the former Ilva, here is Bernabè 4.0, the Bernabe entrepreneur and no longer manager who, with the enthusiasm and curiosity of a young man with great hopes, enters the mysterious and fascinating world of'Artificial intelligence (AI). Three years ago he quietly gathered around himself a group of ex-Tim managers with a long and proven experience in ICT and founded a startup innovative which operates in Artificial Intelligence. The company, which has a net worth of one million euros and has been operating for a year, is called TechVisory: Bernabè is the majority shareholder and the engineer Raimondo Zizza, who at the time of Tim was the Chief Technology Officer, is the Ceo. The company has three offices: in Trento, Rome and Naples and about twenty employees and collaborators. “And above all it is rigorously Italian” says Bernabè proudly who adds: “With Artificial Intelligence we are facing a true revolution like when the Internet arrived. It is a fascinating game but to win on the market you have to think of simple, innovative and disruptive products. There are many promises around that will not come true: we instead think of solutions and products for companies that are very concrete and easy to use”.

TechVisory: Data and Solutions for a New Era of Business

But what exactly does TechVisory do and what does it intend to do? “Above all, two things – explains CEO Zizza -: the business consultancy and the development of new products capable of transforming the expectations created by Data Analytics and AI into concrete solutions for improving service levels and business efficiency”. The corporate technology consultancy from which the company started served not only to immediately break even but above all to fully self-finance “an Artificial Intelligence solution that allows, starting from unstructured data contained in documents of any type, to extract knowledge for the benefit of improving business processes”. TechVisory’s big challenge is “to create cutting-edge products in innovation laboratories by combining the methodologies of design thinking, lean startup and agile approach”.

The real jewel in the crown is Textgenius

So far TechVisory has launched two products on the market. The first was theEnergy Efficiency Class which, through the analysis of potential energy consumption scenarios, provides the expected variation in consumption based on the intensity of energy efficiency and the characteristics of the properties and the determination of energy reactivity. But the jewel of the house is Textgenius which allows to respond to the different needs of the legal, financial, purchasing and commercial business areas through understanding, cross-referencing, verification, comparison of documents, data and in general unstructured information with the aim of increasing the efficiency and depth of analysis in compliance with the compliance rules of the companies. With an eye to cost optimization, guarantee of privacy, certification of sources and traceability of the result.

Time will tell how the market will respond to TechVisory's challenge but one thing is certain: from today on the Artificial Intelligence market there is a all-Italian company which leverages the credibility and experience of Franco Bernabè and his managers and which is determined to play its part as a true protagonist.
