The T.D. Jakes Foundation ran our AI photo booth and Tablet Jeopardy over two days in Irving in spring 2026 and wrote: "The activation was absolutely outstanding... The experience was a hit across the board, with the photobooth being a clear favorite among guests." Deloitte booked a rig and headsets at Deloitte University in Westlake in January 2026: "Everything went well and the staff was amazing!" Flowours rented VR headsets for two Dallas events and told us "the event was a huge success, and it made the news!" JPS Health Network ran Jeopardy and the AI Bot with two managers in Fort Worth, Zix ran Batak Pro in Plano, The Infinite Agency ran the social media vending machine in Plano ("Loadout was much more turnkey"), and Hiregenics, Tundra Technical Solutions, Clear Plan Consulting and Semrush have all booked us for Dallas.
