01 — about

Production conversational AI, Arabic-first.

I'm an AI engineer based in Dubai with 14 years of building software. I focus on production conversational AI — voice agents, chat interfaces, CRM automation, and Arabic-first language work for the MENA market.

I'm currently full-time on Proofly (proofly.ae), an AI-powered Framer plugin suite that's grown to 1,000+ users in two months. I also run Dari Finder (AI property concierge for Dubai real estate) and Rudod (4,000+ users in Syria). Previously shipped AI media generation at Promptus.ai (Equitnet, Feb 2025 – Mar 2026).

Native Arabic. UAE Freelance Permit — no NOC, available immediately.
