AE Studio

AE Studio (Agency Enterprise Studio) is a Los Angeles-based technology studio that designs, engineers, and incubates products intended to increase human agency. Its teams of engineers, data scientists, designers, and product leaders work with founders, executives, and organizations to build software and AI systems, as well as to incubate internal ventures and startups.

The company describes itself as trusted by top founders and Fortune 10 executives to “win the future—faster.” Its project portfolio spans AI, data, software, and blockchain, and its client work has included products for startups as well as large companies such as Samsung and Berkshire Hathaway, according to its job board profile. AE Studio reports 28 five-star ratings on Clutch.co and 128 projects across these disciplines.

Alongside client delivery, AE Studio conducts frontier AI alignment research and operates under a model where applied production work and alignment research sit “under one roof.” It states that it collaborates with Anthropic, DARPA, and UK AISI on frontier alignment research, and that its teams ship production AI systems for airlines, biotech companies, school systems, and enterprises.

AE Studio describes itself as a team of roughly 150 senior professionals—engineers, ML researchers, product leads, and operators. Many team members move between alignment research and applied production work, and the company says it uses AI in its own delivery process, prototyping before specifying and compressing discovery, testing, and documentation.

AE Studio operates a distinctive equity model: team members receive equity across client minimum viable products the studio helps assemble, Skunkworks projects it incubates, and startups it spins out. The company also lets employees found startups internally with founder-level equity, often with the first customer already lined up.

Working culture emphasizes high agency, technical depth, and strategic fluency. The studio says it values people who can embed with client teams and ship automations in weeks or spend a quarter on an alignment research agenda, and who care about AI going well for humanity. It describes a relatively flat organizational structure and a flat, collaborative process, with remote work, flexible schedules, weekly one-on-ones, and company retreats once or twice a year.

AE Studio operates offices in Los Angeles and Florianópolis, Brazil, and hires remote team members. Its careers page notes that role locations include the LA office, US remote, the Florianópolis office, and Brazil remote.
