This investment, led by The TechShop with the support of CDP Venture Capital's Digital Transition Fund (NextGenerationEU, PNRR resources), alongside Club degli Investitori, Nana Bianca, and several seasoned business angels in the eCommerce space, will allow us to strengthen our proprietary AI platform and scale our commercial presence in Italy and beyond.

Why this matters

In just one year, AndromedAI has completed over 100 catalog optimization projects for leading retailers, brands, and digital agencies, delivering measurable results with sales increases of up to +30%.

Our mission is simple yet ambitious:

• Help brands and retailers maximize ROI by generating optimized product content that drives traffic and conversions.

• Make catalog optimization faster and more cost-efficient, cutting weeks of manual work down to minutes and freeing eCommerce teams to focus on strategy and growth.

Our vision

Founded by Alberto Barberis (ex-Google), Francesco Burelli, Vairo Di Pasquale, and Stefano Orlando, AndromedAI was born to solve one of the toughest challenges in eCommerce: keeping product catalogs optimized at scale and making product pages discoverable by new AI search engines such as ChatGPT and Google AI Mode.

With deep expertise in AI and decades of experience managing tens of millions of euros in eCommerce marketing campaigns, our team has built a platform that helps merchants not only perform better on Google but also become more visible in the new AI-driven shopping era.

What's next?

Over the next 12 months, we'll:

• Enhance our AI optimization modules to generate product pages with unmatched performance for our clients.

• Strengthen our position in Italy as the go-to solution for catalog optimization.

• Begin expanding into international markets, partnering with brands and retailers ready to embrace the future of AI-powered commerce.

As our CEO Alberto Barberis explains:

"This capital increase accelerates our roadmap at a pivotal moment for eCommerce, where AI is reshaping how consumers discover and buy products online. Our ambition is twofold: strengthen our leadership in Italy as the main trusted partner for catalog optimization, and to expand internationally, becoming a benchmark for brands and retailers ready to seize new opportunities in AI-driven ecosystems."
