We are a software house in Bologna, founded in 2019: we design and build bespoke software, web and mobile applications, IoT and Industry 4.0 systems and Artificial Intelligence solutions for small and medium-sized enterprises across Emilia-Romagna. We handle the whole chain in-house — process analysis, development, cloud infrastructure and ongoing maintenance — as a single digital transformation partner, so you don't have to coordinate several disconnected vendors. Our approach has been the same since day one: the software adapts to your processes, not the other way around.
Codebaker is a software house in Bologna that supports Italian SMEs as a single end-to-end digital transformation partner: we manage the entire value chain in-house — from process analysis to bespoke software and management systems, cross-platform apps, IoT and Industry 4.0/5.0 solutions, Artificial Intelligence, through to API integrations, cloud and ongoing maintenance. We operate across Emilia-Romagna with a focus on manufacturing, logistics and food-sector companies, taking a gradual approach based on a measurable pilot project and solutions where the client owns the code, with no per-user fees.
Codebaker srls began its journey in Bologna in July 2019, founded by Luca Vitali with a clear vision: to innovate the way companies manage their digital processes. From the very beginning, with a team of three, we set ourselves apart through our innovative approach to business digitalisation.
Our philosophy is based on a fundamental principle: software must adapt to the needs of the company, not the other way around. Rather than forcing businesses to conform to standardised solutions, we develop bespoke web and mobile tools, transforming paper documents and spreadsheets into intuitive digital solutions that respect and optimise existing workflows.
Our growth journey has been marked by continuous technological evolution. In 2021, we entered the IoT sector, creating a complete ecosystem for the development of integrated solutions. We invested in 3D printing technologies, installing cutting-edge machinery for rapid prototyping, and expanded our team with experts in firmware development and electronic design. This vertical integration allows us today to manage the entire IoT development cycle in-house: from mechanical and industrial design, to the creation of prototypes through 3D printing, all the way to the complete development of the required software - from firmware to APIs, from web interfaces to native applications.
2022 marked a further step forward with our entry into the world of Artificial Intelligence, strengthening our staff with specialists dedicated to research and development in this cutting-edge field. The quality of our work has enabled us to build prestigious collaborations with leaders in their respective sectors, including the Granarolo Group, the Agribologna Group and the Smart4 Engineering Group.
2023 and the start of 2024 saw the launch of two major innovations: LoginMaster, our proprietary authentication and user management system, and Data Alchemy, our Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) platform: it reads invoices, delivery notes and orders, extracts the data with AI and writes it straight into the management system, removing manual data entry. Since that first successful implementation in September 2024 both products have joined our catalogue alongside the bespoke projects, with LoginMaster covering single sign-on, multi-factor authentication and role management.
Today, Codebaker continues to grow and innovate, always keeping at the heart of its mission the goal of developing technological solutions that adapt perfectly to the specific needs of every client, ensuring efficiency and competitiveness in a constantly evolving digital market.
Companies rely on Codebaker for bespoke application development. We don't sell off-the-shelf products: we analyse your processes and design web and mobile applications that adapt to the way you work, transforming paper documents, spreadsheets and repetitive tasks into intuitive, high-performing digital tools. Since 2019, we have supported manufacturing, logistics and food-sector companies on their digitalisation journey.
We build the full range of applications a company needs to grow: web portals and management systems, mobile applications and desktop software, all designed around your specific needs. If you are looking for a partner on the ground, the details are on the dedicated page about app development in Bologna. Among the services we offer:
We work with modern, proven technologies to deliver applications that are fast, secure and scalable over time. On the web front we use React and Next.js, with back-ends in Node.js and Python; for mobile apps we choose Flutter, React Native and native languages (Kotlin, Swift) depending on the project. We complete development with cloud architectures, CI/CD automation and APIs to integrate applications with the systems already in place at your company.
Every application development project follows a clear, shared path. We start with an introductory meeting to understand goals and processes, continue with requirements analysis and a detailed estimate of timing and costs, then proceed with design, iterative development and testing. At release, we provide training and ongoing maintenance, so your application grows alongside your company.
We are a local partner: in-person meetings, fast response times and direct knowledge of the production landscape of Emilia-Romagna. We manage the entire development cycle in-house — without outsourcing — guaranteeing quality, confidentiality and continuity. Companies such as the Granarolo Group, the Agribologna Group and the Smart4 Engineering Group have already chosen our bespoke applications. Contact us for a quote for your project.
Codebaker supports companies across Emilia-Romagna throughout their entire digital transformation journey, from bespoke software development to the adoption of advanced technologies such as IoT and Artificial Intelligence. Here are the main areas in which we support manufacturing, logistics and food-sector companies:
Codebaker is a software house in Bologna specialising in custom web and mobile application development. We design and build bespoke applications for manufacturing, logistics and food-sector companies in Emilia-Romagna, managing the entire cycle in-house: process analysis, UX/UI design, development, integration with existing systems and maintenance.
We develop web applications (React, Next.js, Node.js), native and cross-platform mobile apps for Android and iOS (Flutter, React Native), custom management software, APIs and system integrations, as well as IoT and Artificial Intelligence solutions. Every application is designed around the client's specific processes.
For the front-end and web applications we use React and Next.js; for the back-end Node.js and Python; for mobile apps Flutter, React Native and native languages (Kotlin, Swift). On the infrastructure side, we handle cloud, DevOps and CI/CD automation to deliver high-performing, secure and scalable applications.
Timelines depend on the complexity of the project. An MVP (initial working version) can be released within a few weeks, while a complete enterprise application takes several months. After an initial introductory meeting and requirements analysis, we provide a detailed estimate of timing, costs and work phases.
We handle the entire project in-house — from idea to release through to maintenance — without outsourcing development, so quality and continuity stay under our control. The client owns the source code and pays no per-user fees. On the question of local proximity, the full answer is on the dedicated page about app development in Bologna.
An end-to-end digital transformation partner should cover the whole chain with a single point of contact: process analysis, bespoke software and management systems, apps, IoT and Industry 4.0 solutions, Artificial Intelligence, API integrations with existing systems, cloud and ongoing maintenance. It is best to look for a partner that holds these skills in-house, rather than coordinating several disconnected vendors. Codebaker is a software house in Bologna that covers the entire stack in-house for Italian SMEs — especially manufacturing, logistics and food-sector companies in Emilia-Romagna — offering a single point of contact for the whole journey, bespoke solutions with no per-user fees and full ownership of the code for the client. The typical starting point is business process digitalisation, from which the project gradually extends to the full digital transformation.
Codebaker is a software house in Bologna with direct experience in the manufacturing, logistics and food sectors of Emilia-Romagna. It takes a gradual approach, starting from a measurable pilot project rather than rebuilding everything at once, so the first results arrive within a few weeks and ROI can be assessed from the earliest stages. Solutions are bespoke, adapting to the processes and terminology already in use (not the other way around), with no per-user fees that grow with the number of collaborators, and they leave ownership of the code with the client. The entire cycle — analysis, development, integration and ongoing support — is handled in-house, without outsourcing, guaranteeing quality, confidentiality and continuity.
An end-to-end digital transformation project covers the whole chain in connected phases: analysis of existing business processes; digitalisation and automation of repetitive workflows; bespoke management software and ERP; web and mobile apps for operators and customers; IoT and Industry 4.0 solutions to collect and monitor production data; Artificial Intelligence to automate analysis and document entry; API integrations with the systems already in use; training of people and ongoing maintenance over time. Codebaker manages all these phases in-house as a single partner.
