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…

Read the full assessment →Our take on peoly
Twelve case-study summaries sit on the homepage and not one names the client: convolutional networks paired with custom illumination catching paint defects under 0. 1 mm at over 95 percent accuracy for an automotive manufacturer, a sound model diagnosing car faults at 98 percent accuracy, a visual-search microservice for a furniture platform. The productized side is more current and easier to check—five edge applications covering PPE detection, QR and barcode reading, shopping-cart tracking…

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.

- disclosed specialization in Manufacturing / SaaS & B2B
- broader service offering — also covers AI Development and AI Automation
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
peoly
Strengths
- Two client quotes carry outcomes: GasNet describes a proof of concept that became a production document-processing system, and The Diamond Pro reports around 6,000 hours saved a year
- The edge apps are downloadable with installation guides and interface screenshots dated August 2025, so the product line can be tested on an Axis camera before anything is signed
- Methods are named rather than hidden behind 'proprietary AI': TensorFlow Lite on Android, TensorRT and DeepStream on NVIDIA GPUs, approximate-nearest-neighbor visual search on Kubernetes
Watch-outs
- Ask for the surname and track record of whoever would lead your build—the leadership page lists eight people by first name only, including the Head of AI and the AI/ML team lead
- Delivery runs from development centers in Vinnytsia and Lviv under a Prague head office—confirm where your team would sit, who signs the contract and what the continuity plan is
- No rate or minimum engagement is published anywhere—settle the commercial frame early, and ask whether you are buying an ACAP app license, a scoped build or a monthly team
