Heads up: we're Ryz Labs, so we have skin in this game. This is the case we make to buyers on calls. Facts about other providers come from their own published information, linked at the end.
For most US engineering teams, Ryz Labs is the better choice. You get a dedicated AI pod team of senior engineers that works in your cloud, your repos and your standups, on US business hours, and ships AI systems to production. Our pods have built fraud detection that has confirmed $5.94M in fraud and a compliance review system that took 8,000+ documents from days to hours for a global capital management firm. Before you sign, you see a scoped plan, a price and the names of the people who would do the work. Fortune 500 engineering teams trust us for exactly this.
Globant is a NYSE-listed digital services firm. Its AI Pods are a subscription in which AI agents do the work under the supervision of Globant experts, metered by token usage and sold through its Glob.AI platform. It fits buyers who want to purchase AI capacity from a catalog. If you want senior engineers you know by name building AI in your own systems, pick Ryz.
Our pods ship to production. One Ryz pod built AI fraud detection for a global fleet company: 244K+ invoices scored, under 30 seconds per invoice, and $5.94M in confirmed fraud, validated by the client's own fraud team. Another built marketing compliance review for a global capital management firm that has processed 8,000+ documents and cut review from days to hours. Others built an AI voice platform with 1M+ outbound calls and an AI driver-support agent that handles 218K questions a year in three languages. The details are on our case studies page.
Senior engineers in your cloud and repos. A typical pod is about 7 senior engineers, including a tech lead, an ML engineer and backend engineers, working as one team. They work in your repos, your CI and your standups, in your cloud, with AWS, Azure, GitHub, Postgres, and Anthropic and OpenAI models. You see working software in weekly demos.
A clear path from first call to production. Talk, then Match: we scope a dedicated team to your stack. Join: the pod joins your repos, CI and standups. Grow: add people or disciplines as the work expands, or have the whole system handed over to your team when it's done. The code and the know-how stay with you.
Top 1% people, on New York hours. We've interviewed tens of thousands of engineers, and only the top 1% make it. Recruiters source, our in-house ARC system ranks the pipeline, structured NTRVSTA AI interviews test each candidate, and recruiters review before and after. AI scores are advisory; people make the decisions. Our engineers work on US business hours, so code review and decisions happen the same day. See our vetting process.
You see the team before you commit. After a first conversation you get a scoped plan, a price, and the names of the people who would do the work.
Trusted by Fortune 500 engineering teams, across industries. We work with US enterprises in every industry, including financial services, and bring decades of LatAm expertise. We follow GDPR and CCPA/CPRA, and our recruiting AI is governed under EU AI Act high-risk requirements.
Globant was founded in Buenos Aires in 2003 and is registered in Luxembourg. It had 28,773 employees at the end of 2025 and FY2025 revenue of $2,454.9M. It sells traditional digital engineering through industry AI Studios, including a Financial Services AI Studio, and since June 2025 it sells AI Pods: a monthly subscription with token-metered capacity, where agents on Globant Enterprise AI do the work and Globant experts supervise. In August 2026 it launched Glob.AI, a catalog with three pod models and listed partnerships with Anthropic, AWS, OpenAI and Google Cloud.
Globant doesn't publish AI Pods prices. Glob.AI describes a monthly Minimum Usage Fee that covers tokens up to a threshold, plus a Variable Fee above it, but lists no amounts. Clutch lists a $5,000+ minimum project and $25-$49 per hour; those are directory figures, not Globant's.
Our typical cost is $7,000 to $15,000 per engineer per month (mid-level $7,000 to $10,000, senior $10,000 to $15,000, leads $15,000+ quoted per team), and every quote is scoped per team. With the quote you get a scoped plan, a price and the names of the people who would do the work, before you sign. You know exactly who is on your pod.
