AE Studio
AE Studio combines research-grade AI alignment work with production software delivery for founders and Fortune 10 executives.
About
AE Studio builds AI-driven software products and conducts applied research for founders and Fortune 10 executives, combining machine learning engineering with product development across industries including education, healthcare, and transportation. Based in Marina Del Rey, California and founded in 2016, the firm is led by machine learning PhDs, neuroscientists, and experienced product builders — a team that spans data science, brain-computer interfaces, and AI alignment research alongside its client delivery work.
What distinguishes AE Studio is its dual structure: a commercial studio that ships production AI systems, and a research lab publishing peer-reviewed work on AI alignment and safety. The studio is bootstrapped, operates without VC pressure, and positions itself around long-term thinking and increasing human agency — a values orientation that informs both client selection and internal research priorities. Clients' companies have collectively raised over $1 billion, and the studio has delivered more than 323 AI, data, software, and blockchain projects.
