DVLP Studio is a Los Angeles AI product studio. We build private AI tools for document-heavy industries that generic AI can’t serve well. Legal Intelligence is in private beta with law firms now. PM Intelligence launches in 2026. We also take on custom AI builds for ambitious companies in between.
DVLP Studio operates as a product studio, not an agency. We sell working software — our own products and custom builds — never billable hours.
Private AI products we own, build, and ship. Legal Intelligence is live in beta with law firms. PM Intelligence launches in 2026. More verticals in active development.
See products →Custom AI software for specific business problems. Ingestion pipelines, retrieval systems, agentic workflows, AI-powered dashboards. Engagements typically run $15K–$80K.
Discuss a build →Production web platforms, e-commerce stores, and digital products. Shopify, Next.js, full-stack engineering. We bring product-studio quality to client work — not agency-style hours.
See our work →Not wrappers. Not prompts sent to ChatGPT. Products that learn the specific vocabulary and workflows of one vertical at a time. Here's what's live right now.
A private AI copilot that knows your firm’s matters, documents, and case history. Built for document-heavy practices like personal injury, immigration, and Social Security disability. It finds, drafts, and cites against your firm’s own work.
Auto-generated status reports from Jira, Asana, Slack, and Linear. Surfaces blockers, flags at-risk tasks, generates stakeholder updates. Eliminates up to 18 hours of weekly reporting.
Most legal AI is built by engineers who've never sat with a lawyer.
Most legal tech is built by lawyers who've never shipped software.
We learn the work first. Then we build.
DVLP is a two-person studio — a designer and an engineer — who go deep on one vertical before touching code. That's why the product we ship reflects how your team actually works, not how an engineer imagined it might.
We don't publish case studies until the client says so. What we can say: the work ships, it runs, and people come back. That's the metric.
Every client gets a dedicated, isolated environment. Your data trains your AI and no one else's. Built to satisfy ABA Model Rule 1.6 and ABA Formal Opinion 512.
Four weeks from first call to something real in production. No scope creep. No disappearing for months. You see it before it ships.
30-minute call. We map your exact workflow problem before writing a line of code.
Wireframes, copy, architecture — agreed and signed before the build starts.
4–6 week sprints. Bi-weekly demos. You see working software at every stage.
Production deploy with monitoring. We stay on it after launch — that's when learning starts.
UCLA engineers who got tired of watching good ideas die in agency backlogs. We build the products we wish existed.
What people ask before they get on a call.
30-minute call. No deck. We'll be direct about whether we're a fit — and tell you who else to call if we're not.
