Building technology that serves humanity
I turn problems into products. Working with startups, enterprises, and individuals who want to build things that matter.
AI apps, automation tools, marketplaces — launched fast, used by thousands, solving real problems.
No bureaucracy. Just focused execution and continuous improvement.
Made in 🇵🇰, shipped to the world.
If you have a problem worth solving, let's talk:

Shipping Apps in Public
I build in public and ship fast. Here is what I am currently working on:
- ✈️Chalogee : Tourism marketplace connecting travelers with authentic experiences
- 🎧Zepyoc : Audio first recruitment platform using voice AI and NLP
- ✍️NovaWriter : AI powered Mac native markdown writing assistant
- 🎙️NotchPrompt : Invisible teleprompter in the MacBook notch for eye-contact reading on camera
- 🚀Proviral : Content virality tool for YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram creators
💡Shipping Apps Philosophy
I believe in building in public and shipping fast. Every app starts with solving a real problem. I iterate quickly, gather feedback, and improve continuously. The goal is not perfection on day one. It is progress every day. Ship, learn, adapt, repeat.
Look again at that dot. That's here. Thats home. Thats us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives...
