Made with Roadie

Real teams. Real events. Real headshots.

Roadie is built on Studio Pod's automated headshot stack - the same one that's delivered 300,000+ professional portraits. Here's what comes out of the case.

Recent · Houston

200-person law-firm offsite

142headshots delivered
4.5 hrson the ground
Instantphotos in their inboxes

Roadie arrived Friday afternoon, set up in the firm's lobby in five minutes, ran open booth Saturday for the offsite - every associate walked out with their AI-touched headshots already in their inbox. One Pelican. Zero photographers.

How it works

Three steps. We do the heavy lifting.

  1. 01

    Pick a date

    Choose your event window. We confirm within one business day, then schedule the shipment to arrive two days before your event.

  2. 02

    Open the case

    The Roadie rolls in on its own wheels. Five minutes to plug in, raise the lights, and unfold the bench. No photographer, no AV crew.

  3. 03

    Photos. Instantly.

    Five-minute sessions per person. AI-touched gallery delivered to each attendee's inbox the moment they finish the session - they walk out with the photos. We arrange the return shipment.

09 · Built by photographers

Our competitors aren't photographers. We are.

We got tired of scaling corporate headshot days the hard way. Roadie is what we built after a decade of doing the job - and noticing what kept breaking.

10 · The thesis

The first professional studio that ships in a Pelican case and runs without a photographer.

Roadie packs Studio Pod's full automation stack - the same one running in Fortune-100 lobbies and seven permanent studios - into two road cases. We ship the cases to your venue. Your team uses Roadie like a vending machine for headshots. The gallery hits each subject's inbox before they leave the room. You ship the cases back. No photographers. No scheduling. No "I never got the photos" email. 300,000+ portraits delivered, and counting.
