The aggregated input includes a large volume of detailed data for a separate entity, DEPT Agency (a 4,000-person, 5-continent digital agency headquartered in Amsterdam with DEPTIFY AI orchestration platform, NVIDIA/eBay/Meta/Arm clients, and global offices). That dataset appears to be erroneously attached to Rocket Insights in the source aggregation and is not used to characterize Rocket Insights, as Rocket Insights' own firmographic record describes a 11-50 person U.S.-based development firm founded in 2013.
