Short answer
Rubra Digital delivers LLM and RAG consulting to organisations in United States, working across New York, San Francisco, Boston and remotely. Engagements are designed around NIST AI Risk Management Framework, Colorado AI Act, California CCPA/CPRA. US regions in Virginia, Oregon or Texas, with HIPAA-eligible services where PHI is in scope.
What is different about delivering in United States
There is no single federal AI statute, so the operative constraints are sector rules and a growing patchwork of state law. Colorado’s AI Act for consequential decisions, New York City’s bias-audit requirement for automated employment tools, and California’s privacy regime are the ones that most often bite. NIST’s AI RMF is not binding but has become the de facto framework enterprise buyers ask suppliers to map against. US engagements move faster than European ones and are far more likely to be judged on a measurable business metric within the first quarter.
How that changes my build
I map controls to the NIST AI RMF and to whatever SOC 2 evidence the client already produces, because that is what unblocks internal security review fastest.

AI consulting in United States: FAQ
Do you work with clients in United States?
Yes. I deliver remotely across ET through PT with on-site workshops in New York, San Francisco, Boston for discovery, architecture review and handover, which are the points where being in the room helps. My working language is English, and I work with source material in Spanish.
Which regulations shape AI projects in United States?
The frameworks that most often change how I design a system here are NIST AI Risk Management Framework, Colorado AI Act, California CCPA/CPRA, NYC Local Law 144, HIPAA, GLBA / SEC / FINRA, SOC 2. The primary data protection regulator is FTC, sector regulators, and state attorneys general. I map controls to the NIST AI RMF and to whatever SOC 2 evidence the client already produces, because that is what unblocks internal security review fastest.
Can our data stay in United States?
US regions in Virginia, Oregon or Texas, with HIPAA-eligible services where PHI is in scope. Where a client needs inference to stay inside the jurisdiction, that gets designed in from the start rather than retrofitted, including fully on-premise deployment with open-weight models where no external inference is permitted.
What does an AI consulting engagement cost in United States?
Discovery engagements start at €22,000 and production builds typically run from €55,000 to €180,000 depending on scope. I invoice in USD or EUR and quote fixed price for defined scopes, with the assumptions written down before you commit.
