One partner, less complexity
One contract, one point of contact and support that is always coordinated. No juggling separate suppliers, no complex integrations to keep alive over the years.
Store, organise and distribute documents, images and video from a single platform, built for institutions and organisations that want to communicate better, collaborate more easily and get real value out of the material they already hold.
GDPR-compliant cloud service, qualified at QC1 level by ACN, Italy's National Cybersecurity Agency
One system
From storage to publication and on to distribution across digital channels, Garavot simplifies how documents, images and video are managed.
Garavot
One archive · the same metadata · a single point of control
One contract, one point of contact and support that is always coordinated. No juggling separate suppliers, no complex integrations to keep alive over the years.
Every piece of content carries its own information and metadata through its whole lifecycle. That means sharper search, more order, and data that matches wherever it is used.
Fewer systems and fewer connections to maintain means fewer places where a content operation can break. The result is a platform that is more stable, simpler to govern and quicker to support when something needs attention.
The three layers of the platform
01 · Manage
Value: scattered content becomes an organised body of material that is always available.
See how the central archive works02 · Publish
Value: content does not sit in an archive, it becomes a tool for communication and service delivery.
See how publishing works03 · Distribute
Value: content reaches the right people and you can measure whether it worked.
See how distribution worksData sovereignty
Garavot is a cloud service qualified by ACN at QC1 level — the Italian National Cybersecurity Agency — and listed in the national catalogue of cloud services for the public sector. Data, metadata and logs stay on Italian soil, which means clearer control over how information is handled and which jurisdiction governs it.
For public bodies this is a hard requirement. For private organisations it is the certainty of knowing where their content actually sits, and of keeping control of their own digital assets — a question that matters well beyond Italy, wherever EU data residency is part of the brief.

Publishing on YouTube is essential if you want to reach an audience. Handing it custody of your entire video library is a different matter.
With Garavot the archive remains the original, always-current source of your content. From there you decide what to publish, where to distribute it and when to pull it back, keeping control of information, versions and usage rights.
The original is always yours Metadata, versions and cataloguing information stay in Garavot. Distribution platforms become publishing channels, not archives you depend on.
Rights are handled automatically Expiry dates are part of the content itself. When a right runs out, Garavot can pull the item from every connected channel without anyone having to remember.
A single point of control Website, intranet, apps, smart TV and YouTube are all managed from one interface. One operation, consistent governance across every channel.
