Case Studies

Real problems. Real solutions. Real outcomes.

AI Automation

WhatsApp AI Chatbot for Lead Qualification

Problem

A business was losing leads after hours — no one available to qualify or respond.

Solution

Built a 24/7 AI-powered WhatsApp bot that qualifies leads, answers FAQs, and routes conversations using N8N + OpenAI.

Outcome

Response time dropped to instant. Lead qualification automated end-to-end.

AI Product

AI Website Optimizer for SEO, AEO, and GEO Audits

Problem

Businesses couldn't tell why they weren't ranking in AI-driven search — no tooling existed for AEO/GEO audits.

Solution

Built an intelligent audit bot that crawls sites and returns specific, actionable fixes for SEO, AEO, and GEO compatibility.

Outcome

Clients got a clear action list instead of guesswork. Built on LangChain for extensibility.

Scalable Platform

Scalable Video Streaming Platform with Real-Time Search

Problem

A streaming product needed real-time data handling, fast search, and smooth playback at scale.

Solution

Full-stack platform with Apache Kafka for real-time event streaming, Redis caching, and actor/genre/director-based search.

Outcome

Production-ready platform handling concurrent streams with no buffering issues.

E-commerce

E-commerce Storefront with Stripe Integration

Problem

A stationery brand needed an online store — fast — with multiple product images and reliable checkout.

Solution

Built a complete storefront with category browsing, multi-image products, and Stripe payment integration.

Outcome

Shipped to production and processing real orders within weeks of kickoff.

Why teams hire me

The difference between a developer who ships and one who thinks.

01
Ship in weeks, not quarters — without the tech debt

Speed without shortcuts — production code that's clean, scalable, and won't accumulate debt.

02
AI where it improves outcomes

Not every problem needs an LLM. AI gets applied where it creates real leverage, not for the buzzword.

03
Prototype to production, no handoff gap

One senior engineer from idea to launch — no translation loss, no undocumented decisions, no rewrites.

04
CTO-level judgment, without the full-time cost

Architecture decisions, build-vs-buy calls, and roadmap clarity — the kind of judgment that usually costs you an equity stake.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions from founders and product teams.

Chatbot development, document workflows, LLM-powered product features, and workflow automation — primarily using OpenAI, Gemini, LangChain, and N8N. Most projects involve wiring AI into an existing product or building a net-new AI-first feature from scratch.

Yes. Fast MVPs are one of the core services. The goal is a working, launchable product you can test with real users — not a prototype that needs a rewrite before it can go live.

Fast. MVPs have shipped in 5 days. Typical new projects kick off within 1–2 weeks of scoping. The free discovery call is where we figure out fit, scope, and timeline — no commitment required.

Yes. Whether you need a senior engineer to clear a backlog, add features, or improve an existing Node.js or React codebase, that's a standard engagement. I can slot in alongside your team or work independently.

Yes. Most AI integration work happens inside existing codebases — adding a chatbot, automating a workflow, or wiring an LLM into a feature you already have. No need to rebuild from scratch.

Yes. Architecture reviews, AI adoption strategy, and stack decisions are available as standalone consulting engagements before any code is written. If you're unsure what to build or how, that's exactly where to start.
