Frequently Asked Questions

What is Demitas?

Demitas SRL is a South Tyrolean technology company specializing in AI integration, end-to-end automation, data engineering, and custom software development. We empower organizations, ranging from mid-sized regional leaders to large-scale enterprises, to optimize operations through data-driven systems. Our core expertise covers the entire lifecycle of a project: from initial process analysis and architectural design to the engineering and maintenance of production-grade AI and automation systems.

How does Demitas use AI in automation?

We add machine learning and AI models to ordinary rule-based automation, wherever they create measurable value. That lets a workflow handle judgment rather than only repetition: document processing, data extraction, anomaly detection and forecasting. It is what brings work into reach that used to be too variable to hand over.

What services does Demitas offer?

We work in three areas: AI Integration, Data Automation and Software Development. AI Integration connects AI to the systems you already run, so it does useful work. Data Automation builds the pipelines that carry data from production sensors to dashboards. Software Development delivers custom APIs, web applications and hardware integrations, built to be maintained.

Where is Demitas based, and who do you work with?

We are based in Ortisei (Urtijëi / St. Ulrich), South Tyrol, Italy. We work with companies of all sizes, from regional market leaders to large enterprises, both on-site and through remote collaboration.

Which industries does Demitas serve?

We have hands-on experience in manufacturing, banking, energy, media, and tourism. Our approach transfers well across sectors because the underlying challenges, manual workflows, disconnected data, and the need for scalable software architecture, are common to all of them.

In which languages does Demitas work?

We work fluently in English, German, and Italian, reflecting South Tyrol's trilingual business environment. Communication, technical documentation, and source code are delivered in the language that best suits your team's internal standards.

What funding is available for digitalization in South Tyrol?

The Autonomous Province of Bolzano subsidizes digitalization and innovation project costs through various grant programs. We point our clients toward the right programs and contacts so that eligible AI integration and automation work can be co-financed.

Does Demitas join EU research consortia?

Registered on the EU Funding & Tenders Portal. We're open to consortium partnerships for Horizon Europe and EDF/EUDIS calls, contributing applied-AI, data-engineering and software work packages. Building a proposal? Let's talk.

Who founded Demitas?

Demitas was founded by Daniel Demetz and Daniel Mahlknecht:

Daniel Demetz: A physicist turned software engineer with a background in machine-learning research at Fraunhofer IAIS. He served as AI Integration Lead at BTV Bank and Team Lead for Digital Engineering at PsaierEnergies before co-founding Demitas.

Daniel Mahlknecht: A specialist in embedded and full-stack software development with a background in physics and professional audio production, focused on building reliable and well-designed software architectures.

How do I start a project with Demitas?

We keep onboarding brief and focused on technical alignment. Our process adapts to your project's maturity: if your requirements are already defined, we move directly to a technical requirement analysis that defines the scope. If the idea is still conceptual, we start with a brief introductory call. To begin, email info@demitas.io or use our contact form.
