Side by side
Published data on both agencies. Where one side measurably differs, the dot marks it: the higher score, the lower published rate, the larger team, the more recent review. Which of those is an advantage depends on your brief.

What we said about each
Our take on 10Clouds
The financial-services case studies are the ones to read: a live lead engine for Polfund, a credit-guarantee fund, that screens up to 5,000 public tenders a day on the firm's own AIConsole platform, and a credit-assessment redesign at an unnamed Polish bank that cut analysis time from 90 to 19 minutes per case and reports 698 analyst hours saved a month. The stack is named throughout—Dynamics 365, Azure OpenAI, Whisper, DeepFace—and an internal AI-recruiter write-up describes what failed before…

Two published case studies show computer vision running in client operations: an image-quality engine for Teezily built on a VGG network and trained on the platform's own uploads, and a shelf-compliance system for Spencer's across 600-plus North American stores, with the stack named down to YOLO, Paddle OCR and Azure. Both describe what was built and integrated rather than what was demonstrated—but neither publishes an outcome number, so the efficiency claims stay qualitative. The strongest…

Where each agency measurably leads on the published data — team capacity, declared specializations, editorial scoring, and rates where both publish them. Use these to match an agency to your project priorities.
Choose 10Clouds if you need
- disclosed specialization in FinTech / Healthcare
- broader service offering — also covers AI Agents
- a higher overall editorial score
Choose Addepto if you need
- disclosed specialization in E-commerce / Manufacturing
- broader service offering — also covers AI Consulting and AI Automation
Strengths and watch-outs
Both upsides and risks, straight from our editorial assessments.
10Clouds
Strengths
- Published rates of €45–85/h against production fintech deployments, well under the €100–200/h EU band
- AIConsole is the firm's own open-source orchestration platform and appears in three of the four fintech studies, so you are buying a repeated pattern rather than a first build
- Third-party corroboration is visible: 90-plus Clutch reviews at 4.9, Deloitte Fast 50 and FT1000 listings, and a Select-tier Claude Partner Network listing
Watch-outs
- The strongest metrics (79% faster analysis, 698 hours a month) belong to an anonymized bank—ask for a speakable reference behind that study
- The homepage claims 120-plus AI deployments while the site publishes about eight AI case studies—ask for the list behind the number
- Positioning since the merger is finance-only; if your brief sits in another vertical, confirm who would staff it
Addepto
Strengths
- Names the stack rather than hiding it: VGG for quality detection, YOLO and Paddle OCR for shelf analysis, both integration-ready
- Spencer's engagement operates across 600+ stores, so the retail work is at genuine chain scale
- Independent corroboration exists—Clutch 4.9 across 18 reviews, Deloitte Fast 50 and FT1000 listings
Watch-outs
- No published outcome figures in either named case study—ask for the before-and-after numbers directly
- Operates as a KMS Technology company; clarify who staffs your project and from where

Pricing math
What a 12-week engagement at one full-time equivalent (~480 hours) costs at each agency’s published rate. An arithmetic projection, not a quote — real scopes move with seniority mix and team shape.
10Clouds
Rate: €45-85/hr
€21,600–€40,800
Addepto
Rate: €45-85/hr
€21,600–€40,800
Published midpoints are within 5% of each other — at this scope the difference is smaller than the estimate's own error bars. Decide on specialization, not cost.
