AI Product Builder & Product Lead | Claude Code, AI MVPs | AI Agents

Thanks for visiting my profile! My name is Al and it is my utmost imperative to bring immediate value to your business! I help founders and funded startups go from idea to a shipped and customized AI product per your specs. I am a Product Lead who builds it myself with agentic tools like Claude Code, so you get the strategy and the working app from one person. Here are some key areas of focus that I will provide to you and your team: 💫 Many AI projects stall due to skyrocketing API costs, model hallucinations, or slow engineering cycles. As a former SaaS Co-Founder who has hired and run dev teams, I bridge the gap between your business goals and technical execution so you launch the product that you had envisioned. 💫 My proof is my own live, paid AI app, which turns meetings and voice notes into a ranked workflow for every person. 💫 I completely redesigned my own app using a highly efficient and durable agentic dev framework for iOS and Android: 5,711 commits in 102 working days. 💫 It's live on the App Store and Google Play with a 5.0 rating and 17 releases since its February 2026 launch. 💫 Instead of theoretical advice, I bring a proven, agent-driven playbook. Next steps would include an immediate initial consultation and figure out what your core pain points are. At the conclusion of our call I will provide: 💥 A clear and cogent analysis of your specific product and technical bottlenecks. 💥 Present a clear and quantitative action plan on how I'd scope the first version of your build. Listed below are 2️⃣ most common areas I’ve provided maximal value to clients: 1️⃣ AI Reliability & Trust 🧠 ☑️ Hallucination Control: I ground AI output in the source material. My app's engine ties every task to the actual transcript, and if there's nothing actionable in the input, no output is generated. ☑️ Proof, Not Claims: I run AI agents on verified results. After an agent reported a 96% success rate that measured 44%, I made it a rule that every reported number has to come from a command, and I'll bring that same rigor to your product. ☑️ AI Integration: I add LLM features such as voice, transcription, summarization, and agents to new or existing products, scoped so they're maintainable rather than a pile of demos. 2️⃣ Agent-Driven Delivery & Launch 🚀 ➡️ Accelerated Builds: I operate as an autonomous builder or lead your team using parallel Claude Code agents and other AI agentic tools and frameworks that keep specs, decisions, and context intact. ➡️ Automated Quality: I built 2,341 test files plus end-to-end flows where agents walk every screen on iOS and Android simulators. Any defect that escapes becomes a permanent gate, so bugs don't come back. ➡️ Go-To-Market Strategy: I take your product from concept to revenue with pricing, paywalls, and app store launches. My own app runs a 7-day free trial into paid monthly and annual plans, with paywall placement measured against activation. 🧑🏻‍💻 Software Tools I am well-versed in: 🖥️ Claude Code, Anthropic Claude, and other AI agentic tools 🖥️ Linear & Figma 🖥️ Speechmatics (Real-time STT) 🖥️ Flutter, Firebase, GCP 🖥️ Maestro, Patrol, GitHub, nightly CI Product and Agile Project Certifications: ⚡️Certified Scrum Product Owner (CSPO) ⚡️Certified ScrumMaster (CSM) I owe my 100% Job Success Score to the amazing clients I've had the privilege of working with across 1,800+ billed hours. One client says their 10-person dev team now works "more smoothly than ever," and another says I "organized our engineering system in no time." Each team is truly unique and also must be treated uniquely in kind. It will be my chief prerogative to build you a truly bespoke solution to your project and provide immediate value to you, your team, and your business! Send me what you're trying to build, and I'll reply with how I'd scope the first version. Looking forward to connecting with you soon! 😄 -Al
