## About this market
Public-sector AI in Italy is a Rome story on this page, and the evidence comes in three shapes: models, institutional software and oversight. Almawave's is model building—the Velvet family covers the EU's 24 official languages, developed with Cineca on Italian public supercomputing and released openly. Babelscape's strongest engagement is EUIPO's TraDeInterpret, a tool interpreting trademark terms across the EU's official languages on the firm's own knowledge graph, with a client testimonial behind it. DMBI Consultants publishes project write-ups with the tools named for each, and Marinuzzi & Associati works the client side of the table, supervising the AI component of a national health digitalization portfolio rather than building it. Nexid, from Milan, names Regione Campania as an AI client, with a reconciliation rate published as a target rather than a result, and Brain Computing's published work is training-sector software.

For a public buyer the first question is which side of the procurement you need filled. A body that must specify, tender and supervise an AI program needs an independent expert; a body that must run one needs a supplier with a deployment it can name. Ask the builders here for a public system still in service, the documentation it was delivered with, and whether it runs on infrastructure the administration controls—the EU AI Act puts many administrative uses in its high-risk tier, and the paperwork is part of the deliverable.
