AI Pod Studios serves Washington, DC remotely from its Dallas HQ — engineers work in your Slack and repos, not a local office. We provide AI engineers for government contractors, legal and associations teams at $50/hr (Senior Lead $75/hr), a Pod (1 Senior Lead + 2 AI Engineers) priced from those rates, or a $5,000 two-week AI Sprint. Engineers join your Slack within 7 business days of MSA/SOW and deposit.

Washington government contractors teams typically ask us for proposal-library RAG, compliance-matrix drafting and RFP intake. That work runs on past proposals, solicitations and capability statements, and we plan for contract-specific data handling rules from day one.
Washington legal teams typically ask us for client intake, document RAG and first-draft assistants. That work runs on contracts, pleadings and internal memos, and we plan for privilege and matter-level access from day one.
Washington associations teams typically ask us for member-service chat, event FAQ assistants and content search. That work runs on member handbooks, event guides and publications, and we plan for member-data privacy from day one.

Eastern time — full overlap with our minimum 4 hours/day US Eastern window. Engineers commit to at least 4 hours/day of US Eastern overlap.
