Prova.ai

Weights with values. Models that care.

Prova is a Design AI Company for human-first AI. We test AI against real rules and real lives before it reaches the world.

What brings you here?

Test your product against real rules and real people before launch, and leave with evidence regulators can read.

See what we offer builders

Test a policy question against real AI applications, and write rules that real products can follow.

Human first AI

AI scales. Responsibility doesn't.

AI already runs at the scale of entire societies. The responsibility that should come with it still lives in pilot projects, side teams and position papers.

Policy rarely sets a vision for where we want to go. When it does, it seldom reaches the products people use. And the products are still designed around foundation models, not around the people who live and work with them.

Prova exists to close that gap, one use case at a time.

Spin, Air and Studio

Where we bring AI to policy and policy to AI. We provide input for both product building and policy formulation in one holistic approach, grounded in real world concerns.

Spin

For public bodies and corporates

What we learn, carried into the models themselves, so responsibility grows at the same pace as AI.

Air

For model builders and product teams

Making responsible AI something people want to live with, not something they are told to accept.

Studio

Training the next generation of AI thinkers, and those living through the transition

Why we're called Prova

In Italian, prova means a test, a proof and a rehearsal. Today AI is shipped first and questioned afterwards. We think it should be rehearsed and iterated right from the start, with real data, real rules and the people it will affect, while changing course is still cheap.

A note from our founder

Have you ever dreamt of a world in which AI at scale comes with responsibility at scale? I have, and Prova is how we get there.

We have learned to scale AI. What we have not scaled is the humane part. It stays siloed and, at best, niche.

The people who use AI are not just users. They are citizens and whole human beings, and that is who we design for.

AI is what we make of it. We focus on what the world with AI can become, going beyond what it already is.
