AI products and systems, built to ship.
From AI agents and automation to internal tools and digital products, I help businesses decide what to build, design the right system, and get it into production.
Start — AI Consulting: Clarify the opportunity, scope, architecture and what should actually be built.
Build — AI Products & Agents: Design and build the product, agent, workflow or internal system.
Automate — Business Automation: Connect tools, data and workflows so manual work disappears.
Partner — Fractional AI / Product Leadership: Ongoing senior product and AI guidance for teams building internally.
A small set of services. Built around what needs to ship.
AI products, AI-native features and production systems.
Customer service, sales, internal agents and tool-using assistants.
Operational workflows, integrations and business-process automation.
Opportunity mapping, architecture, model and tool selection, and roadmap.
Ongoing senior product, architecture and AI leadership.
Digital products that happen to use the right technology.
Not everything needs to be “AI consulting.” A lot of valuable work is an internal tool that removes a spreadsheet, a dashboard someone actually opens, or a product that simply ships.

Fractional AI CTO
Embedded leadership for teams building AI capabilities internally.
Operator experience, not advice from the sidelines.
I've spent 15+ years building and operating digital products and businesses across Kuwait and the UAE — founder, CTO, COO and CEO seats, including a decade as CTO of Al-Qabas. The work combines product, technology and operations, with AI implemented where it earns its place — and with Arabic treated as a first-class product requirement, not a translation pass.
Work that already exists.
AhlanAI
Founder & builder — Arabic-first directory of 500+ AI tools across 20+ categories, designed around the Arabic experience.
Al-Qabas
CTO since 2016 — A decade leading one of Kuwait's established newspapers from print economics to a platform business.
Wavai
Co-founder & CTO — AI agents, automation and digital products for businesses across the GCC.
Jarida
In development — Arabic AI news and guides platform.
Start with the problem.
Tell me what you're trying to build, improve or automate. I'll tell you whether I can help and what the clearest next step looks like.
Before we talk.
What types of projects do you take on?
AI products, agents, automations, internal tools and digital products — plus the consulting to decide between them. The common thread is that something has to ship.
Do you work with existing internal teams?
Yes — it's the most common format. Your team builds; I bring product and architecture direction, review the work and unblock the hard decisions.
Do you build the product or only advise?
Both. Depending on scope, the build runs through Wavai or your team builds with my direction. Either way, the person who scoped the work stays accountable for it working.
Can you help us decide what should be automated?
Yes — that decision is most of the value. We map the workflows, rank them by cost and risk, and automate the ones where a system genuinely beats a person.
Do you work with Arabic / bilingual products?
Yes, deliberately. Arabic-first design is a core requirement in this region — AhlanAI, my own product, is built Arabic-first.
Can you work with our existing stack?
Yes. New tools have to earn their place; the default is building on what you already run.
How do projects usually start?
A short call, then a scoped proposal. If a strategy sprint is needed first, it's scoped as its own small engagement.
Do you work with companies outside Kuwait and the UAE?
Primarily Kuwait and the UAE, and remote across the GCC. Beyond that, case-by-case where the timezone overlap works.
