## About this market
Ghent's consulting bench is unusually strong for a city this size, and it splits by what each firm consults about. ML6 works at the engineering end and publishes 34 case studies with before-and-after numbers—Scout24's HeyImmo assistant moved user satisfaction from 68% to 75% and first-token latency from 8 seconds to under 5, evaluated against an 85% quality bar using human testing plus LLM-as-a-judge. Crunch Analytics is the boutique, working pricing and forecasting for Belgian retail and manufacturing: its Markdown Assistant for the shoe retailer Torfs is published with revenue up to 30% higher and margins up to 8%. In The Pocket consults from a product base at 200-plus staff. element61 arrives from analytics and performance management with 152 stated experts, and Dataroots brings platform and MLOps depth from its Leuven head office.

Two of the five are here on a Ghent office rather than a Ghent head office, and one of those, Dataroots, publishes no client case studies at all—its evidence is an unusually deep public engineering blog rather than an engagement you can call a reference on. Ask each firm which office your team would actually come from, and for one named client in your sector who will speak.
