What we said about each
Our take on AI Pirates
Seven named clients each get their own published case, which is more transparency than most studios this size offer, and CineCockpit is a real end-to-end build: a six-agent content intelligence platform over 30,000 films from 15 EU markets, hosted in Germany and live at its own domain. The rest of the published work is lighter than that headline suggests—an 18-month roadmap with 23 prioritized use cases for Fuxtec, AI trailer workflows and tool enablement for LEONINE, GPT training for…

A creative production company that delivers on subscription, and the reason it is listed here is narrow and specific: it produces campaign work generatively, and says so. The LOOP brief is explicit—create AI-generated video for a nicotine-pouch launch, fast and within budget—and the client's marketing director is quoted by name. Häxan, a Swedish household brand from the early 1900s, ran a Halloween campaign whose imagery was generated because a photoshoot was out of reach; its co-owner is…

Strengths and watch-outs
Both upsides and risks, straight from our editorial assessments.
AI Pirates
Strengths
- Published price anchors are unusually concrete: audits from around €1,500, production systems €20,000-80,000
- CineCockpit is verifiable independently—the platform is live and sells at €49/month
- Every named client has a dedicated case page rather than a logo on a wall
Watch-outs
- No case study names the models or stack—ask what CineCockpit is actually built on before commissioning similar work
- Workshops and roadmaps dominate the portfolio; ask for a system they built and still operate
Klingit
Strengths
- Two named-client campaigns where generative production is the delivery method, both with attributed client quotes explaining the cost case
- An in-house generation engine tuned to a brand's own assets, rather than generic tooling applied per project
- A subscription model with 80-plus creatives, which suits continuous campaign output rather than one-off projects
Watch-outs
- This is production, not engineering—there is no system delivered and no model built for you
- Most of the portfolio is conventional design and brand work; the AI is a method inside it, not the offer
