## Our take on Merantix Momentum
Reviewed 2026-09-24 by Gabor Kiss against published evidence.

The strongest of Merantix Momentum's 27 dated reference pages show systems that are still running: KRASS Optik's recommender serves 900,000+ customers daily on automated retraining since 2021, Boehringer Ingelheim's video-analysis tool classifies 20+ rodent behaviors at 87% accuracy with a paper presented at ICML 2024, and caralegal's contract-review model runs inside its platform for paying customers.

The generative-AI record is shorter: Cornelsen's Material Designer (launched 2024) and Hamburg's LLMoin text assistant are the rolled-out systems, while the Federal Chancellery work ended as a proof of concept on a locally hosted Mixtral model handed over for integration.

Seven of the 27 pages are publicly funded research consortia, several still reading "results to follow" years after kickoff, and others are strategy workshops, training or feasibility studies (Siemens Energy, Porsche Digital, ESMT), so read the delivery pages rather than the count.

The weaker fit is buyers who want a small fixed-price build: no rate or package price is published, and the named references are large companies, federal and city administrations, and research consortia.

### Key strengths
- Operating numbers published per system: TÜV Rheinland damage inspection cut from 6 minutes to 20 seconds, CURREX insole assignment under 2% error, over 50% of KRASS purchases previously recommended
- EU AI Act work documented in an engagement: Hamburg's InnoTecHH process evaluated 120+ use cases in 2023, with 19 in development and 8 scaled, under a governance process built against the Act
- Named client quotes with titles (TÜV Rheinland, Siemens Energy, DZSF, caralegal, YottaSen) and external links to Hamburg press releases, a DZSF research report and the Boehringer Ingelheim paper

### Good to know
- The three strongest production cases (KRASS, CURREX, TÜV Rheinland) started in 2021—if you are buying an LLM system, ask for one in production today with usage figures
- Seven of 27 references are funded research consortia and several more are workshops or feasibility studies—ask which people on your project delivered the production systems
- No rate is published—ask for day rates and for what monitoring and retraining cost after go-live, since KRASS and Boehringer Ingelheim both run as open-ended engagements

## Our take on ML6
Reviewed 2026-08-04 by Gabor Kiss against published evidence.

The published case library runs to 34 studies, and the ones read in full carry before-and-after numbers rather than adjectives—Scout24's HeyImmo assistant moved user satisfaction from 68% to 75% and first-token latency from 8 seconds to under 5, and Syngenta's lab-inspection vision model doubled analysis speed across half a million wells a year.

Studies name the stack down to the component (OpenAI direct API, Pydantic agents, DataDog on Scout24's own AWS; Vertex AI for Syngenta) and describe how the client was left able to run the system without them.

Work spans regulated and public buyers—the national cyber security center, the EU Council newsroom, Flemish highways—alongside industrial names.

The weaker fit is a buyer wanting a fixed quote up front: no rates, headcount, or founding year appear anywhere public.

### Key strengths
- Case studies publish client-side quotes from named engineering managers, not marketing testimonials
- Published outcomes at the national cyber security center include 3x faster vulnerability handling and 70% faster NIS2 response
- Both major clouds are in evidence—AWS and Google Vertex AI appear in separately documented builds

### Good to know
- Two energy studies run anonymized as "Energy Company"—ask for a speakable reference if you need one in that sector
- No published rates, team size, or founding year; anchor with the European range on our rate index and ask who staffs the work
- Delivery sits across four offices—confirm which one your team would come from
