Cedat85 has been featured in Quotidiano di Puglia in an article dedicated to ‘Companies that make history’.

The story retraces an extraordinary journey: from a small 3×3 room in San Vito dei Normanni, where municipal council meetings were transcribed manually from magnetic tapes and audio cassettes, to today’s international recognition as a specialist in artificial intelligence applied to human language.

Cedat85 was born with a clear purpose: to give value to words. Long before artificial intelligence became part of everyday conversation, the company understood that spoken language was not simply information to be recorded, but knowledge to be preserved, organised and made accessible.

Over the years, Cedat85 evolved from a transcription service into a technology company, combining linguistic expertise, software development, machine learning and semantic analysis. This evolution led to the creation of solutions such as Digital4Democracy and Cabolo, our offline AI device designed to record, transcribe, index, and analyse audio, video, and text while keeping data under the customer’s control.

Today, our technologies are used by leading institutions and organisations globally, including the Presidency of the Italian Republic, the Italian Chamber of Deputies and Senate, the European Parliament, major banking groups, foreign governments and justice institutions.

This recognition by Quotidiano di Puglia is an important acknowledgement of a journey rooted in the local territory, but with an increasingly international impact. It is a story of vision, resilience and courage; of a company that has continued to invest in people, research and advanced technologies while remaining deeply connected to its origins.

As we look to the future, we remain committed to the same mission that has guided us from the beginning: transforming words into accessible knowledge, supporting organisations in their digital transformation and ensuring that innovation remains secure, reliable and human-centred.
