A rare founder-led software development company serving Los Angeles — born out of Stanford in Palo Alto. We bring Silicon Valley startup expertise and production AI to LA enterprises: custom software, AI and generative AI, application modernization, APIs, and DevOps.
Shipped on a production cadence, governed for risk, and built to back your team rather than replace it — startup-grade engineering without the bureaucracy of a big consultancy or the churn of an offshore shop.
Six disciplines for Los Angeles enterprises — from bespoke custom software to production AI, all shipped on a release cadence and owned by you.
Bespoke web and platform software built for Los Angeles enterprises — designed around your business, owned by you, and engineered to last past launch.
RAG applications, AI agents, and fine-tuned models shipped to production — explore our generative AI development work, governed and eval-driven from day one.
Senior, vetted engineers embedded in your team and timezone — see IT staff augmentation when you need capacity without permanent hiring.
Legacy systems re-platformed and re-architected — our application modernization practice moves you off technical debt without stopping the business.
Robust services and integrations — our API and backend development builds the secure, scalable backbone the rest of your stack depends on.
CI/CD, infrastructure as code, and cloud operations — our DevOps and cloud practice gets you shipping safely at speed.
Every Los Angeles engagement runs on the same end-to-end discipline. Here is what comes standard, whatever we build.
Born out of Stanford in Palo Alto, we bring startup-grade engineering to Los Angeles enterprises — the bar-setters stay on the work, from first scope to production.
Not a sales layer over a junior bench — the founders and senior engineers who set the standard are the ones who deliver it. A partner who owns the outcome, not a vendor staffing a ticket queue.
We grew up where frontier technology and fast, disciplined product development are the norm — and we bring that same Valley speed and product instinct to the enterprises and ambitions of Los Angeles.
Aegis AI, our patent-pending production suite, keeps the cadence fast and the defect rate at zero — so you get a startup's pace with an enterprise's reliability. See how we think about human-led AI.
Built to back your team rather than replace it — local Los Angeles collaboration, on-site, hybrid, or remote, with our wider AI development services behind every engagement.

BJ's Restaurants — headquartered in Huntington Beach, just down the coast from Los Angeles — runs a demanding 200+ location production environment where reliability affects customers, revenue, and brand trust. With Aegis AI, the team moved from slow releases to twice-weekly production with zero critical defects for the past year. It is the kind of local, enterprise-scale proof you can ask any Los Angeles software company for — and the full story is on the Aegis AI page.
Silicon Prime is a rare thing in enterprise software: a founder-led lab, born out of Stanford in Palo Alto, that brings Silicon Valley startup expertise to Los Angeles. Founder-led means the people who set the standard are still in the work — the difference between a partner who owns the outcome and a vendor who staffs a ticket queue.
That standard runs through Aegis AI, our patent-pending production suite and the engine behind twice-weekly releases with zero critical defects across a 200+ location enterprise — and through every LA engagement we take. We build custom software, generative AI, modernization, APIs, and DevOps, governed for risk and built to back your team, not replace it.
Startup speed with enterprise reliability — from our LA office or yours.
The questions LA enterprise teams ask before bringing on a software and AI partner.
Silicon Prime is a founder-led AI lab born out of Stanford in Palo Alto, with a Los Angeles headquarters. Founded in 2011, our Los Angeles team works directly with enterprise clients across Southern California and the wider US, bringing Silicon Valley startup expertise to LA.
Yes. Our headline Southern California client is BJ's Restaurants, a 200+ location enterprise headquartered in Huntington Beach, which we support with Aegis AI — twice-weekly production releases and zero critical defects over the past year. We work with enterprise teams across the greater Los Angeles area and beyond, on-site, hybrid, or remote.
From our Los Angeles office we build custom software, AI and generative AI systems, application modernization, API and backend development, and DevOps and cloud. We also provide staff augmentation when you need senior engineers embedded in your own team.
Yes. Los Angeles is our headquarters, but we serve clients across the US and run a second office in the San Francisco Bay Area. We work on-site, hybrid, and remote depending on what the engagement needs.
Yes. AI is our core discipline. Our Los Angeles team is a Responsible AI lab that builds generative AI, LLM, and production machine-learning systems — the same rigor behind Aegis AI, our enterprise production suite, applied to your use case.
