Le Wagon is a 9-week, 400-hour Rails-plus-AI bootcamp run from 28 campuses with an online track, and no campus in the United States. It suits people outside the US or those willing to join a remote cohort on another campus's schedule and price list. Before paying, get the tuition for the specific campus that will host you, since the site publishes none, and note that the public syllabus has zero hours of interview preparation.

What a careful reader should know
Founded 2013 in Paris (Course Report). The web development bootcamp was renamed 'AI Software Development' and still teaches Ruby on Rails plus OpenAI API work. Companies named on the site (Amazon, Google, Accenture, Nike, Walmart, Shopify) are presented as alumni employers, not hiring partners with commitments. No US campus means a US learner joins a remote cohort priced and scheduled by a non-US campus; check the time zone and the price in that campus's currency. Reddit sentiment could not be sampled this session (search tools blocked).
