Artificial Intelligence
Powered by a multidisciplinary team of 400+ creatives and engineers, DEPT®/AI is your implementation partner, building custom pre-trained models, empowering data science teams, and integrating AI into pioneering creative and product experiences.
Our dedicated practice accelerates the adoption of AI, offering solutions including generative AI and content generation at scale, all while ensuring it’s done in an ethical and progressive way.
AI Pioneers
We believe that AI will accelerate our clients’ businesses and transform our own, driving revenue growth, and positively enhancing the day-to-day work of our teams.
ACCELERATING BUSINESS
We predict that 80% of what we do as a full-service marketing and technology services provider will have an AI helper to make us faster and better. Some disciplines will make intense use of it, while some will be more light touch, but the overall adoption will have far-reaching, positive outcomes. We are dedicated to maximising the opportunities of AI for the benefit of our clients, delivering cost-effective solutions while maintaining our culture of pioneering experimentation.
TURNKEY SOLUTIONS
Capitalising on the opportunities of AI implementation comes with complexity. Organisations are facing tricky questions on design, tech, ethics, security, law, operations, workflow, and culture. DEPT®/AI can help businesses to simplify and navigate their AI journey with our ethical and progressive turnkey solutions in growth and engineering, and by enabling more pioneering creative work with AI.
TRANSFORMATIVE TEAMS
AI will undoubtedly disrupt and transform our industry, and our team is at the forefront of that change. In addition to our 400+ AI experts, we are empowering all of our teams to maximise the benefits of AI by embedding it into our workflows to ensure we’re always staying ahead for our clients.
Ada by DEPT®
20% of the tools in our proprietary tech platform, Ada by DEPT®, are powered by AI, including tools for SEO, anomaly detection, SEA ad copy generation, CRO roast automation, content generation for Amazon, and SEO trends monitoring. GPT-3 has been powering many of these tools since 2020. We’re also integrating generative AI tools into Lightspeed, our proprietary tool for creating assets at scale.

Our approach
AI is integrated across all of our services, which we simplify into Building, Running, and Using.
Our engineering teams have deep expertise across both Machine Learning (ML) operations and data science, enabling them to build solutions that solve complex challenges. From personalisation capabilities to predictive insights and content generation, AI accelerates the capabilities of our engineering solutions.
From deploying models into production, through to audience management and multivariate experimentation, AI drives efficiency and accuracy.
GPT chatbots, AR, and content generation at scale are a few ways we use AI to exceed consumer expectations and deliver digital solutions that elevate the customer experience.
