About Us
Consulting, development and hosting with free and open source technologies, at the service of organisations, companies and public bodies.
Who is Pittysoft srl
We design and build software based on free and open source technologies. We work tailor-made for every client, with no proprietary constraints or lock-in.
We have particular experience in IT consulting for banking and insurance.
We are specialists in digital librarianship: we deploy and maintain Koha and VuFind. We also run version control platforms such as Forgejo and Gitea for autonomous development teams.
We work in digital forensics, alongside lawyers and law firms, exclusively as party-appointed technical consultants (CTP): custom software for case file management, acquisition and analysis of digital evidence in compliance with the chain of custody, technical reports for the defence in civil and criminal proceedings, and training on open source tools for digital forensics.
We help our clients to:
- ✓ Leverage free and open source software
- ✓ Innovate without depending on proprietary solutions
- ✓ Have customised, flexible services
- ✓ Manage their own digital processes autonomously
- ✓ Promote technological transparency and sustainability
Our story
Pittysoft srl was founded in Bologna in April 2025 by Giosuè Anastasi, a software engineer who turned a long-held idea into a company: building IT solutions based exclusively on free and open source technologies.
A Computer Science graduate of the University of Bologna, the founder gained extensive experience as a software engineer and consultant for companies such as Prometeia, 3D Informatica, NSI – Nier Soluzioni Informatiche and Rfmcube, working on backend and web development (Java, Docker, Linux), systems administration and projects for the banking and insurance sector, as well as digital librarianship with platforms such as Koha and VuFind.
Since 2015 he has also worked in digital forensics, supporting lawyers and law firms as a technical consultant (CTP). A long-standing member of the free software community, he has been running self-managed network infrastructure for years. Business, forensic consulting and the open source community: these are the three roots from which Pittysoft has grown.
