## Curator assessment
Reviewed 2026-08-06 by Gabor Kiss against published evidence.

Signs is the most visible AI work here: a sign-language learning platform using computer vision to check the learner's signing, which reached more than 20 million people in its first week and recorded 20,000 signs learned in ten days. It is a collaboration with NVIDIA and the American Society for Deaf Children rather than a commissioned client project, which is worth knowing when you read it as evidence.

The commissioned AI work is more ordinary and more useful as a guide: a return-value prediction model for the fashion retailer Omoda that fed its marketing hub, Clair for CaryHealth, a reference app its own case study credits with 90% faster clinical search, and nine CGI avatars generated for Inter's INTERISTA fan platform, published as 13.5 times faster and 92% cheaper than the comparable manual workflow.

Size is the real variable: DEPT operates across many markets, so who staffs your project matters more here than at a twenty-person firm.

The weaker fit is an enterprise wanting a production AI system governed and operated long-term; this bench is strongest where AI meets the audience.

### Key strengths
- Named clients with figures attached across three sectors: retail returns, clinical search, sports fan engagement
- Computer vision applied to genuinely hard interaction problems, not generative demos
- International delivery capacity, so multi-market rollouts do not need a second agency

### Good to know
- Signs is collaborative work with NVIDIA, not a client engagement—judge the commissioned cases separately
- Published AI work is weighted toward audience-facing products—ask for an operated system with an SLA if that is what you need
- At this scale, insist on knowing the named team, not the agency's aggregate credentials
