COSMO 2050, Italy's leading magazine for astronomy and the space economy, and Hevolus , an Italian company internationally recognized for its Generative AI and Intelligent Reality solutions , and one of ten global partners selected by Microsoft, announce the development of COSMO 2050 Assistant AI , an innovative digital assistant integrated into the cosmo2050.com website. Thanks to the collaboration between the two companies, Hevolus has designed and implemented an AI Agent capable of communicating in natural language, providing reliable responses based exclusively on the publication's scientific content. COSMO 2050 Assistant AI represents a first in the Italian publishing landscape: users can interact with AI to gain insights on astronomy, space exploration, and the space economy, accessing verified and easily accessible information. For example, you can ask for explanations on the latest discoveries regarding black holes, exoplanets, or space missions, get guidance in preparing lessons or school research, explore years of content on specific topics like Mars or space telescopes, and get instant definitions and clarifications on the most complex concepts in astrophysics. All this while drawing exclusively from articles written by the Cosmo 2050 editorial team, composed of expert journalists and university professors. " With COSMO 2050 Assistant AI, we are bringing scientific publishing into a new interactive dimension," says Domenico Zambarelli , publisher of COSMO 2050. "It's a project that merges the knowledge built up over years of work with the potential of artificial intelligence. A revolution that makes astronomical knowledge more accessible, alive, and open to discussion, while always maintaining the authoritativeness of the sources."

Following its official presentation at the 10th CEAS Aerospace Congress in Turin , COSMO 2050 Assistant AI will also be a key player at the NSE – New Space Economy Expoforum in Rome , from December 10 to 12, 2025. Hevolus will participate in the event alongside COSMO 2050 to present the interactive features and scientific value of AI. “The real leap in AI's quality in publishing lies in combining natural dialogue and rigorous sources,” states Antonio Squeo , CEO of Hevolus . “With COSMO 2050 Assistant AI, we have built an AI Agent that responds solely based on the journal's scientific heritage, ensuring transparency and reliability of the information.”

Many publishing houses, museums, companies, and institutions possess a vast wealth of content, including articles, catalogs, technical documentation, and guidelines, which is often difficult to navigate . “What COSMO 2050 Assistant AI does for astronomy today can be applied to any complex content heritage tomorrow : from technical manuals to museum archives, from scientific databases to corporate documentation and customer care knowledge bases,” adds Squeo . Hevolus ' AI agents , in fact, were created specifically to make this content searchable in natural language , always consistent with official sources, and available 24/7.

The project represents an important step in the evolution of artificial intelligence applied to specialized publishing. Thanks to the technology developed by Hevolus , the COSMO 2050 platform goes beyond simply providing content to become a dynamic, interactive, and educational tool capable of supporting training, research, and scientific dissemination . With this collaboration, Hevolus confirms its commitment to digital innovation, positioning itself as a strategic partner for the application of AI in scientific communication and the transformation of content into interactive experiences.
