The story
01The Journey

From websites to products.

I started building websites in 2010. Over the years the work changed, from pages to apps to complete software products that businesses and people rely on every day.

  1. 2010

    Started with the web

    Designing and coding websites, learning the craft one page at a time.

  2. 2014

    From pages to applications

    Moved into full-stack work and real web applications with users behind them.

  3. 2019

    Building products

    Began shipping complete software products: SaaS, mobile and the systems around them.

  4. Today

    AI, automation & beyond

    Building AI tools, automation and digital products, end to end, from idea to launch.

02Now Building

Where the journey leads.

Two products I'm building right now, end to end: the idea, the design, the engineering and everything in between.

TheGodex

Distributed astronomical discovery.

A global mission that turns spare browser computing power into a search engine for the unknown, across telescope and satellite imagery. Every verified discovery remembers who helped find it.

  1. The ideaA search engine for the unknown, powered by people’s spare browser computing.
  2. Distributed computeEvery visitor’s browser becomes part of the network, with no install.
  3. On-device AIDetection runs locally across telescope and satellite imagery.
  4. Credit that sticksDiscoveries are verified, and every one remembers who helped find it.

Thali

The halal calorie tracker that knows your food.

1,450 home-style dishes from Lahore to Hanoi, each with an honest calorie range built from real ingredients. Type what you ate, the way you'd say it.

03What I Build

Capabilities, not technologies.

Tools and frameworks change. What stays is the ability to take a problem and ship a product that solves it end to end.

01

Products

Software people log into every day.

  • SaaS Products

    End-to-end platforms, from data model to billing to the interface people log into daily.

  • Mobile Applications

    Native-feeling apps that are fast, considered and built to keep users coming back.

  • Internal Software

    The unglamorous tools teams actually run on, designed to be a pleasure to use.

02

AI, automation & data

Letting software do the busywork, and making the numbers make sense.

  • AI Integrations

    Practical AI woven into real workflows: not demos, but features that earn their place.

  • Automation Tools

    Scripts and systems that quietly remove the repetitive work from a business.

  • Dashboards

    Dense information made calm and legible, so decisions get easier.

03

Idea to launch

From first sketch to something real people can use.

  • Prototypes

    Fast, believable proofs of concept that make an idea easy to feel and fund.

  • MVP Development

    The smallest sharp version of a product that can ship and start learning.

04

Craft & advice

The decisions that keep a product good as it grows.

  • Product Design

    Interfaces and design systems with a clear point of view and real restraint.

  • Architecture & APIs

    The shape of the whole system and the clean interfaces between its parts, built to scale without becoming fragile.

  • Consulting

    A second set of hands and judgment for teams figuring out what to build.

04Experiments

A lab for curiosity and unfinished ideas.

SVG Motion

Studies in animated vector systems and timing.

UI Concepts

Interface ideas explored before they become products.

OCR Research

Pushing accuracy on messy real-world documents.

AI Prompts

Prompt systems tuned for repeatable results.

Image Workflows

Pipelines for consistent generated imagery.

Design Systems

Reusable foundations for fast, coherent builds.

05FAQ

Questions, answered.

What do you build?

SaaS platforms, mobile apps, AI products, automation tools and internal software, from first sketch to launch. I handle the product design, the engineering and the architecture behind it.

What are you working on right now?

Two products: TheGodex, a distributed discovery platform that uses spare browser computing power to search space and Earth imagery, and Thali, a halal calorie tracker for home-style Pakistani, Indian and Arab food.

Do you work with other teams?

Yes. Alongside my own products I take on consulting, MVP builds and system architecture for teams figuring out what to build and how to ship it.

How long have you been building software?

Since 2010. I started with websites, moved into full-stack web applications in 2014 and have been shipping complete software products since 2019.

How do I start a project with you?
