About us

A colony that innovates

A colony that innovates

Anthilla comes from Ant Hill: like an anthill, every individual matters, but it's the collective that generates the vision. A colony that innovates, a network that builds.

Our approach

Our approach

We don't sell products, we build solutions. We don't chase the market, we anticipate it. We don't delegate responsibility, we share it. We use AI with judgment, not for fashion: technology at the service of context, never the other way around.

In brief

In brief

Anthilla Srl builds custom software systems: since 2022 working on mnemonic cognitive prompt framework (multilevel prompting and multilevel context), self-hosted management software (FLUX), fog/edge infrastructure, AI knowledge base. Based in Pregnana Milanese (MI), Italy. Independent, open source, self-funded.

Some of the things we do, including internal research and development

Mnemonic cognitive prompt framework

Mnemonic cognitive prompt framework

Since 2022 we have been working on mnemonic cognitive prompt framework and on the logic of multilevel prompting and multilevel context. The goal is to make AI coherent in real work, without confabulation: a cognitive framework that lives in memory inside any model, does not lock you to a vendor, is not a subscription service. Long sessions sustained, cognitive biases prevented, coherence between tools and actions maintained.

FLUX — a management system you truly own

FLUX — a management system you truly own

A management system that can run anywhere you want: on your servers, on ours, in the cloud, anywhere. Contacts, activities, events, deadlines, history: all under your control. No per-user subscription, no lock-in.

Fog/edge infrastructure

Fog/edge infrastructure

Webserver, firewall, threat management, monitoring. Self-hosted, resilient, independent from cloud providers. Your data stays on your servers.

AIKB — AI-powered knowledge base

AIKB — AI-powered knowledge base

AI-powered knowledge base to organize and query technical documentation and company know-how. Cross-AI, peer-to-peer, with cryptographic authentication.

What it means for your business

What it means for your business

The systems we build are yours: you can modify, extend, and move them. No per-user subscription, no dependency on external platforms. Your data stays on your servers.

Explained simply

Explained simply

Imagine having a management system that doesn't cost you every month per user, that can run anywhere you want, and that you can modify whenever you want. That's what we build. We don't sell a product: we build the solution you need.

Our story

Founded 2013

Founded 2013

Anthilla Srl was founded in 2013, giving corporate form to a journey rooted in the IT experience of its people since the early 2000s. A choice of independence: no vendor lock-in, no black boxes, real control of infrastructure, data and processes.

Experience since 2001

Experience since 2001

The technical skills that converge into Anthilla today matured from 2001 in the IT sector: infrastructure, security, software development and, in recent years, local artificial intelligence. A heritage of method built in the field, project after project.

Since 2022: mnemonic cognitive prompt framework

Since 2022: mnemonic cognitive prompt framework

In 2022 we started research on mnemonic cognitive prompt framework and the logic of multilevel prompting and multilevel context. A line of work that today we apply daily to sustain long sessions, prevent cognitive biases and maintain coherence between tools and actions. It positions us among the European pioneers of structured prompt engineering.

Values

Technological independence

Technological independence

No vendor lock-in: we choose open tools and architectures that remain under the control of those who use them.

Modularity

Modularity

Components that adapt and grow: we start from what's needed and scale with criteria, without rewriting everything every time.

Resilience

Resilience

Systems designed to resist and recover: operational continuity even when something goes wrong.

Transparency

Transparency

Open code and visible processes: those who work with us understand what happens and why.

Sustainability

Sustainability

Solutions that last over time: less waste, fewer recurring costs out of control, more value in the long run.

How we work

First the problem, then the solution

First the problem, then the solution

We don't start from the product, but from the need. First we listen, then we evaluate if we know how to do what's needed, and only then do we propose a solution. If it's not our field, we say so.

Open source, standards, independence

Open source, standards, independence

The technologies we use are open, standard and independent from commercial licenses. What we build for you is yours: you can modify it, extend it, move it. You are not tied to us.

What we are NOT

We are not a web agency

We are not a web agency

We don't do standard websites or e-commerce. We build infrastructure and management systems.

We are not a traditional system integrator

We are not a traditional system integrator

We don't implement SAP, Salesforce or Dynamics. We build open solutions, independent from large vendors.

We are not a startup seeking funding

We are not a startup seeking funding

We are an independent Srl, funded by our own revenue. We grow organically.

We don't promise AI that solves everything

We don't promise AI that solves everything

We use AI where it makes sense (knowledge base, automation), but we don't pass it off as a universal solution.

Team and ecosystem

A network of skills

A network of skills

Anthilla is led by Ivan Dorna and operates as a network of skills, not as an anonymous box. Infrastructure, cybersecurity, software development, local AI and strategic consulting are supported by the most suitable person for each project.

Collaborations

Collaborations

We work in collaboration with selected partners, including Luca Tomassi for communication and strategic lead generation and the Scighera ecosystem for the management and platform side. A real network of people and skills, not inflated numbers.
