We design AI companies and commit capital to the ones that clear the bar.
Every product is validated twice: against academic benchmarks, then with paying customers and measurable results.
We build to solve hard, specific problems in how organisations use AI, not to raise capital.
Academic partnerships, published benchmarks
RAG systems, knowledge structures, agent infrastructure
Researchers, engineers, domain experts
Revenue and client traction before scale
Every venture is born with AI integrated in its DNA. We don't add artificial intelligence as an afterthought.
The best decisions are made on data, not opinions. Every phase is guided by metrics.
Time is the scarcest resource for a startup. We maximize speed without compromising quality.
We operate with a deeply European mindset: regulatory compliance and sustainability.
We build ventures from scratch, together. Ideal for founders with strong ideas, corporate spin-offs, technical teams.
Department as a Service: marketing, tech, operations and AI for companies that want to scale fast.
We invest in high-potential early-stage companies in sectors we know best.
We build them in-house, often alongside an industrial partner.

Information intelligence
News, facts and information analysis
An epistemic framework that treats every news item as a multidimensional object: source, event, credibility, framing, propagation. It returns verifiable Reality Cards. Web, mobile and a B2B line.
Agents and AI tools for developers
Legacy code migration
A multi-agent system that reads whole codebases, rebuilds their dependencies and migrates COBOL, mainframe and .NET to modern stacks. 91.2% of tests passed on the first attempt on the public Poly-MigrationBench.
Audience intelligence
Synthetic interviews and product validation
Synthetic audiences to test products still in R&D: simulated interviews, value-proposition stress tests, workflows that turn thousands of signals into decisions. Focused on banking and insurance.
Co-developed with
Excellence Consulting
Editorial generative AI
Agentic harness for editorial content
An agentic newsroom where humans keep the final say: signal radar, writing, fact-checking and publishing, then podcasts, reels and carousels from the same pieces. Text, audio and video in a single pipeline. KANSEI Magazine and the Lost in the Middle newsletter run on it.
Ontologies and memory for agentic infrastructure
Deep tech memory for AI agents
Shared, governed memory of organisational decisions, exposed over MCP to the agents your team already uses: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Copilot. Deterministic kernel: it establishes which decision holds, with evidence and provenance, and abstains instead of guessing.
Agentic infrastructure and organisational MCP
The operating brain of an organisation
An agentic terminal a company uses to build its own custom management software. Projects, tasks, documents and decisions live in one registry. The agents your team already uses read and update it over MCP. At KVA we run our projects, ventures and clients on it every day.
Autonomous research and AI for science
Autonomous research with AI
Multi-agent tools for scientific research. They start from a claim, cross disciplines, look for evidence and counterexamples, and a referee decides whether the result holds. CLI and web.
Training, people development and AI literacy
Measure skills, train organisations
Measures skills by role, closes the gaps with a catalogue built around the company, verifies the effect with an AI tutor. In production with Gruppo Excellence.
