Software & AIfor Startups

Demos win the meeting. My software survives Monday morning.

For seven years I've been building reliable, solid products for my clients: fintech, public administration, automotive, event management, platforms for professionals and much more.

All without giving up the modernity and power that bringing AI into a solution can offer: managed in a safe and efficient way.

Mywork

Five products in service, followed and maintained by me.

ScegliPOS.it

Fintech · comparison · continuous rate monitoring

A search engine for Startups to compare in detail every available fee plan for their POS service and pick the one that fits best.

Next.js · pricing engineOpen the case study

EasyAppalto.it

Construction procurement · tenders from mixed sources

A platform for construction companies: search up-to-date tenders from every official public source, manage collaboration and cooperation with other companies in avvalimento procedures and automatically generate the tender participation documents. It also provides a management portal for the company itself.

InterveniamoNoi

Multi-user platform · payments and digital signature

A portal that connects professional technicians (plumbers, electricians, pest controllers...) with their customers in real time. It handles communication between customer and technician and lets them complete the whole service workflow quickly and simply. It also works as the professional's organizer and as a portal to manage their customer base and appointments.

CalcolaCostoAuto.it

Personal finance · purchase, running costs, taxes

A personal-finance portal to evaluate buying, leasing or financing a car. It provides advanced estimates of current offers, their real costs (including fuel, maintenance, wear of components, etc.) and the interest of the current financing. It is currently the most complete portal on the market to uncover the true cost of your vehicle or to choose the next one consciously.

FeverAutomator

Event operations · SIAE, Soundreef, workflows

A platform that automates event operations: professionals, documents, administrative procedures and compliance centralized in one digital ecosystem. It integrates SIAE and Soundreef directly into the workflow and shows in one dashboard what is done, what needs attention and what it is already handling on its own.

The most commonproblems

A good product must anticipate critical issues and prevent them.

Preserving historical data

Over the years a company collects information in digital and non-digital formats; it has to be managed efficiently and reorganized, also to prepare any future AI systems on top of it.

Without a number, all you have is trust.

You need a shareable, honest metric of the delivered software's performance, to demonstrate the quality of the work.

Less is more

Often there's no need to add complexity to systems: on the contrary, it's better to rethink them from scratch, making them simpler and more efficient.

"Where does our data end up?"

Every client has specific needs about the privacy and confidentiality of their information: the right boundaries have to be drawn together.

Measured,not narrated

A serious project starts from the criterion it will be judged by.

Before any code we define the yardstick: expected answers from the AI, tests and acceptance criteria for the software, performance and security.

Guardrails

  • Cost cap on API calls
  • Automatic output validation
  • Sensitive data masking
  • Token usage optimization

Workwith me

Below are the rates I offer my clients.

Clients,in their words

Collected once each project closed, published in full — criticism included.

Giuseppe

Owner, window and door company

I used to manage jobs and quotes across three different spreadsheets. David built us a custom ERP that talks to the warehouse: order errors are gone and I stopped spending evenings reconciling.
5/5

Federica

Operations manager, maintenance company

I feared the usual software nobody ends up using. Instead it lives inside the app the crew already had in their pockets: they adopted it in a week. And when needed, David was there even off hours.
5/5

Luca

Director, design firm

He told us right away that half the project we had in mind wasn't needed: I appreciate someone who makes you spend less. The document-search pilot passed the agreed threshold, and only then did we move forward.
5/5

Rosanna

Administration, trading company

The AI module answers on our price lists and always cites the source document: that's what convinced us to trust it. One note: I would have liked more initial training for less digital colleagues.
4/5

Domenico

IT manager, manufacturing Startup

Fixed quote, delivery on time and a number going up every week on the test cases. It's the first vendor that also shows us where the system fails.
5/5

Aboutme

MSc in AI and Machine Learning, 110 cum laude. But the real school was software with users on it: Comcast's Xfinity app, enterprise platforms in consulting, ERPs and apps for Italian Startups. When something breaks there, you don't read it in a report: the ringing phone tells you.

Meanwhile I keep six products of my own online — fintech, tenders, multi-user platforms, even a website that rewrites itself every night through an AI agent. Maintaining what you build is the most honest test I know.

Based in Cosenza. For companies nearby I'm glad to get in the car: a walk through the shop floor explains more than ten video calls.

Let's worktogether

First, let's find out if you actually need it

Half an hour on a call to frame the problem and say honestly whether software or AI can solve it. When the answer is no, you hear it from me in that half hour — not after three quotes.

Message max 200 characters. The default mail app will open with subject and message prefilled.
