Trieste, Italy Private AI Since 2024

We bring AI
where it truly matters.

We are an artificial intelligence boutique: we design private AI systems for healthcare, industry and sensitive data. Every project is bespoke, every client is closely supported.

We chose to call ourselves Human Technology eXcellence because we aim to combine the excellence of people with that of technology.

Our philosophy

Quality is like a wave.

Whatever work you do, if you transform what you are doing into art, you will probably discover that you have become an interesting person to others and not an object. This is because your decisions, made with Quality in mind, change you as well. Better yet: not only do they change you and the work, but they also change others, because Quality is like a wave. That Quality work you thought no one would notice is indeed noticed, and whoever sees it feels a little better: they will probably pass this feeling on to others, and in this way Quality will continue to spread.
— Robert Pirsig

We choose few projects and follow them with the utmost care. When we start a collaboration — with clients, partners or collaborators — it is usually the beginning of something lasting. We don't sell hours: we build systems that work.

Infrastructure

Our datacenter.

BIC Incubatori FVG Data Center where the HTX PRISMA platform operates

Our PRISMA platform can operate within the BIC Incubatori FVG Data Center, the certified incubator of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region.

Dedicated infrastructure, redundant connectivity, physical and logical security. Our clients' data never leaves the controlled perimeter.

PRISMA — Private AI Stack
Computing power

HPC and digital sovereignty.

For workloads that require superior computing power, we rely on TriesteValley HPC — the local high-performance computing cluster, equipped with NVIDIA GPUs.

Model training, fine-tuning, batch inference: everything runs on European infrastructure, with full data sovereignty.

Ecosystem

Trieste: Europe's AI hub.

In April 2025, one year after our founding, AGORAI Innovation Hub was born — the partnership between Generali and Google Cloud for artificial intelligence, headquartered in Trieste. HTX operates within this unique ecosystem: the European city with the highest concentration of researchers per capita.
