## Curator assessment
Reviewed 2026-09-09 by Gabor Kiss against published evidence.

The case studies are better built than most, and the strongest one is not AI. Defigo documents an eight-year engineering partnership: Flutter apps, a Node.js and WebRTC backend at sub-second video latency, C++/Qt firmware on the control unit, 65,000 daily users, 3,000 installations and 55 million door openings.

The AI flagship is SelectAI, an in-cage vision unit for Norwegian salmon farms—three synchronized cameras under multispectral lighting, on-device pre-processing feeding cloud inference, more than 15,000 fish analyzed, classified against the regulator's own five-class lice taxonomy with no internal remapping. Live pilots today, with automated-counter approval targeted for end-2026.

The division of labor is published rather than blurred: LANARS wrote the firmware, the embedded vision stack, the annotation platform, the cloud path and the over-the-air pipeline, while model architecture, training and validation sat with a partner, AI Experts. That is the thing to probe.

The weaker fit is a buyer who needs the models themselves owned in-house by the supplier.

### Key strengths
- The SelectAI write-up separates what each party built, naming the partner that owned model architecture, training and validation
- Defigo documents an eight-year engineering partnership with running numbers: 65,000 daily users, 3,000 installations and sub-second video latency
- Edge constraints are treated as the design problem—three synchronized cameras, multispectral lighting and on-device pre-processing feeding cloud inference

### Good to know
- Model work on the flagship AI project belonged to a partner—ask who would train and validate models on your engagement
- SelectAI is described at live-pilot stage with regulator approval targeted for end-2026; ask what runs unattended today
- 36 people on LinkedIn against offices in Oslo, Edinburgh and Vilnius—confirm which site staffs your project
