Xference was born from the vision that inference will become humanity's primary way of interacting with technology and accessing information.

In 2023, founders Andrea Pili and Michele Fadda recognized a critical gap in the AI landscape. While generative AI was revolutionizing industries, organizations faced an impossible choice: harness these powerful technologies while exposing sensitive data, or prioritize security at the cost of innovation. This dilemma sparked our mission to create a local GPT solutionthat would democratize access to AI while maintaining absolute data sovereignty.

As a European company, we built Xference on foundational principles of privacy and data protection. Every aspect of our platform was designed from the ground up to be 100% compliant with the AI Act and GDPR regulations—not as an afterthought, but as core architecture. We believe technological advancement should never come at the expense of privacy or security.

Equally important to our vision was accessibility. We committed to creating a platform where anyone could leverage sophisticated AI inference capabilities without technical expertise, opening doors for organizations of all sizes to implement AI solutions tailored to their unique needs.

After intensive research and development throughout 2024, what began as a concept evolved into a fully-realized startup. In January 2025, we officially launched Xference from our headquarters in Cagliari, Sardinia—a city with a rich history of technological innovation as the birthplace of Europe's first internet service provider.

Today, we continue to pioneer the future of inference technology, guided by our unwavering commitment to performance, privacy, and democratizing access to AI's transformative potential. As the world increasingly shifts from traditional web searches to inference-based interactions, Xference stands ready to power this evolution with solutions that respect both your data and your need for cutting-edge capabilities.

Join us as we write the next chapter in AI's story—one where power and privacy coexist, and where inference becomes the bridge between human intention and technological possibility.
