FAQ

Common questions

Pricing, how projects run, working remotely and working with sensitive data.

What does a typical engagement look like?

We start with a scoping session on the problem, the data and what “done” means, and I send a written scope with a fixed price. Then I build in short sprints and show you working software every week. The system is deployed in your environment with monitoring, and I hand over the code and runbooks so your team can run it.

How is pricing structured?

Build work has a fixed scope and a fixed price, agreed after the scoping session, so you know the cost before anything is built. Due diligence and advisory work are priced per engagement.

Do you work remotely?

Yes. I’m based in Islamabad and have delivered for clients in the UAE, the US and Pakistan. I arrange my working hours to overlap with your team’s.

Can you work with sensitive data on our infrastructure?

Yes, that is how I normally work. Systems are built and deployed inside your environment and accounts, under your access controls. I’m happy to sign an NDA before the first technical conversation.

Do you do due diligence for investors?

Yes. I review early-stage AI startups’ model architecture, data, infrastructure and agent workflows, and write up the findings for the investment committee. I can also work with the company after the round.

What happens after the project ends?

You keep the code, documentation and runbooks, and I walk your team through operating the system. Ongoing support is available if you want it, but the system is built so your team can run it without me.
