A small practice, run by one person.

I'm Rahim — an independent builder based in Abu Dhabi. I use AI to design and ship websites, mobile apps and assistants for founders and small teams who want to move fast without hiring an agency.

I work with Claude, Gemini and ChatGPT every day. That means projects that used to take three months take three weeks — and you still get something that looks and feels handcrafted.

Currently taking on two new projects per quarter. Best fit: founders launching something new, small businesses upgrading their website, or teams adding AI to how they already work.

§05 — In their words
Rahim shipped the marketing site in three weeks and didn't ask us a single dumb question. Our trial signups went up 41% the quarter after launch.
Maya Khan
Co-founder, ixana.ai
Half developer, half marketer, fully obsessed with the work. The rare freelancer you keep on retainer because you can't afford not to.
Daniyal Rao
CEO, Reidis Interactive
He thinks like an editor and codes like an engineer. Our site reads better and ranks better — both, somehow, at the same time.
