Ali ShanSoftware Developer & AI Specialist
For the last three years I've been building AI agents and automation systems that do real work — lead-gen pipelines, WhatsApp assistants, content engines — and helping companies wire AI into how they actually operate. This site is my workbench: live tools, working demos, and honest write-ups of how they're built.
