Freelance developer — est. 2010 // Karachi → worldwide

Asad

I build websites, custom software and AI systems — the automated kind that take a manual process and make it run without you. Fifteen years in, the work is still the same: understand the business, ship the smallest thing that solves it.

Three things,
done properly.

No agency layer, no handoffs. You talk to the person writing the code — from the first call to the deploy.

01 / WEBWebsites

Sites that
sell the work

Business sites, landing pages and marketing sites that load fast, rank, and stay simple enough for you to update yourself. Handed over cleanly — never locked to a subscription.

WordPressCustom themesCore Web VitalsTechnical SEOAnalytics
02 / BUILDCustom

Software for
your process

Web apps and internal tools shaped around how your team already works — dashboards, portals, booking and billing flows, and integrations between systems that were never meant to talk.

PHP / LaravelNodePythonMySQL / PostgresREST APIs
03 / AIAI Systems

Bots that
know the data

Assistants and agents wired into real business data, so they answer, qualify, summarise and file — instead of just chatting. Built with guardrails, logging and a human fallback.

What a build
actually looks like.

Four shapes most projects take. Yours will be one of them, or a mix of two.

Websites

A site that sells the work

Clear positioning, real photography, a quote form that reaches a human — fast on a phone on mobile data, not just on your laptop.

2010Building for the web since
Custom build

The spreadsheet, outgrown

Turned into a proper system with roles, history and an audit trail.

1Point of contact
AI system

An assistant on the front desk

Answers from your own documents, and hands the uncertain cases to a person.

24/7When the bot is live
Integration

Two systems that should already talk

CRM to invoicing, form to warehouse, chat to ticket queue. Small, well-monitored glue that deletes a daily copy-paste job.

How a project
runs.

Short, written, and without a discovery phase that bills three weeks of meetings.

01

One call, then a written scope

What it must do, what it must not, and what it costs — in writing before any code.

02

Build in visible slices

Working screens early and often. Not a slide deck and a silence.

03

Handover, not lock-in

Code, accounts and docs go to you. Nothing held hostage on my server.

04

Support that answers

A bug after launch is my problem first. Fix it, then explain what happened.

I started building websites in 2010, back when a business site was still a novel thing to own. Since then the work has moved through every layer of it: static pages, then CMS builds, then custom applications — and now AI systems sitting on top of the same business logic.

I work alone and on purpose. The person who scopes your project is the person who builds it and the person who answers when something breaks. It also means I take a small number of projects at a time, so the one you get is the one I am actually thinking about.

Most of my clients are small businesses and founder-led teams who need something built properly once, rather than something cheap that has to be rebuilt in a year.

Tell me what needs to work.

A sentence about the business and a sentence about the problem is enough. You get a straight answer on scope, cost, and whether I am the right person for it.
