About
Two people who prefer doing over talking
Flying Squid is a software house founded by Yuri Loayza and Fabrizio Offredi. We work with Italian and international companies on projects where the hard part is the real one.
Our story
Flying Squid started from a simple obsession: a lot of software is built to be sold, not to be used. The client pays, the project closes, and six months later nobody can change a line of code without calling someone.
We decided to do the opposite. Every project starts from a question about the real process of the people who will use it, and ends with a system the team can handle on its own. That means less of our work over time, and more value for whoever called us.
The name came up at an aperitivo, between a client and a conversation about how deep a software project really is. It stayed, because it carries the idea: a software house with more layers, and the head inside.

Fabrizio Offredi
Founder & Product Designer
Fabrizio designs products and interfaces, and bridges the gap between the client's vision and engineering. He owns the design system, the UX and the quality of every detail.
How we think
The problem first, then the technology
We do not pitch a stack: we propose a solution. The technical choice comes later, and it comes for reasons, not out of habit.
We measure everything we claim
Performance, conversions, delivery times: the numbers we quote come from the systems, not from impressions.
The code is always yours
Repository in your account, licences agreed in writing and documentation that does not live only in our heads.
We talk straight, even when silence would pay
If a project makes no sense, we say so. If a budget is not enough, we say it before starting, not afterwards.
