Ali Arain.

I taught myself to code and never stopped shipping. I design, build, and ship AI products, MVPs, and native Mac apps, end to end.

Building in public

What I've been shipping, live from GitHub.

For founders & hiring managers

  • I ship end to end: product sense, AI systems, web, and native Mac.
  • I own 0 → 1 — prototypes, launch, iteration — without a large team.
  • Production products in fintech, AI hiring, and marketplaces. NotchPrompt hit #8 on Product Hunt.
  • Open source on npm + pub.dev: askai, Fluttrify, Bank Alfalah Payment, AssetKamKaro.
  • Fixed-price, scoped upfront — no surprise invoices.

Work

Products I built end-to-end. Everything else lives in builds.

  • Teleprompter that lives in your Mac notch — screen-share invisible

    Word-level real-time highlighting, 3 overlay modes, 100% on-device. #8 on Product Hunt.

  • AI-powered ATS — post a job, screen everyone, swipe the shortlist

    Replace resume triage with scored shortlists your team can review in minutes.

  • Memory infrastructure for AI — cited context or honest refusal

    Gives models real memory so answers cite sources or decline instead of guessing.

  • Tourism marketplace — travellers meet real local experiences

    Connects travellers with vetted hosts instead of generic tour bundles.

Packages

Open source on npm and pub.dev — small tools that solve real problems.

  • Add "Ask AI" to any app — deep-links to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and 7 more. No API keys.

  • fluttrifyFlutter

    Simplified API integration and data transformation for Flutter. 2.5K+ downloads.

  • Complete Bank Alfalah payment gateway for Flutter. Bridging Pakistani fintech and mobile.

  • Asset optimization and lazy loading for Flutter. Automatic compression, memory-efficient caching.

Tools

Free, no-signup developer tools I build and leave open. They run entirely in your browser.

Writing

Launch notes, essays, and how I build.

Stack

What I reach for to ship fast and keep things maintainable.

Have an idea worth shipping?

Bring me the problem. I'll bring back a working product: designed, built, and shipped end to end.
