"You live only as long as the last person who remembers you" ~ Westworld


- An outreach planner composed in a single html file. Data can be exported to, and imported from, a JSON that can be passed to the LLM for enrichment. https://kashifaziz.me/outreach-planner/

- An analysis pipeline that takes data from D1 (storing user searches), Posthog and Clicky (analytics) to periodically generate user journey reports.

- halalcodecheck.com - a database of emulsifier codes and food ingredients. Building this with the goal to help consumer verify and find alterantives of food ingredients across US, EU / UK and Asia.


Random but... please do not use this template on real emails

"Hi [FirstName],

I came across [Company] and was impressed by the work you're doing — especially [specific detail]."

It's a terrible cold email, I get so many of these every week... There's better ways to get someone's attention


Thanks for taking out the time to look into the template and sharing your feedback. Appreciated.

Having said this, that's just a demo template and users can tweak and configure the template as they deem fit.


I figured, I just had a visceral reaction to that specific template as I get so many of them


Working on halalcodecheck.com - a platform to verify food ingredients. Something that started as a tool to scan or upload product labels to verify ingredients has now transformed into a repository of brands, food types, and guides covering major accreditation bodies in the US, UK, Canada etc.

In April, the site receievd 3,500 clicks from Google - 7× growth month-on-month. Cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity.

Working as a solo founder, some of the stuff I shipped last month:

⤷ Launched a seasonal gifting vertical - new revenue surface, new content format, reusable template for future occasion launches

⤷ Audited verdicts for all brands and food items, incorporating data from various authentic sources and official accreditation bodies

⤷ Expanded programmatic SEO across ingredient and brand categories

⤷ Turned zero-result dead-ends into a list growth lever


I have used tmux, tmuxup, fzf and direnv to automate my workflow. It's pointed to the work folder, contains a project picker, invokes shell with defaults (npm run dev, python manage.py runserver etc), and fires up cursor - saving a lot of keystrokes for project initialization.

I have written about the process here: https://kashifaziz.me/blog/tmux-dev-workflow/

Contact: https://kashifaziz.me/contact/

Independent software developer who helps founders and teams ship production-grade software fast — and clean up the AI-generated code that's quietly accumulating technical debt.

If you're a startup trying to move from prototype to scale, or a legacy business that needs modern tooling bolted onto existing systems, that's my wheelhouse.

Recent work:

- Multi-tenant analytics dashboard — full-stack SaaS with RBAC, Clicky + Google Search Console integrations, and Cloudflare Workers — https://kashifaziz.me/portfolio/multi-tenant-analytics-dashb...

- HalalCodeCheck — took a working scanner and rebuilt it as a guided decision-support product with onboarding, trust messaging, and section analytics — https://kashifaziz.me/portfolio/halalcodecheck/

- Outreach Planner — full CRM shipped as a single self-contained HTML file, zero backend, works offline — https://kashifaziz.me/portfolio/outreach-planner/

Also available for vibe code cleaning — structured audits of AI-generated codebases before they go to production.

Open to contract, part-time retainer, or project-based work.


Binge watched it. I think the first 2 seasons were great.

Lee Pace did an awesome performance recently in Asimov's Foundation. Mackenzie Davis, another lead in the show, demonstrated good potential but she seems not to get much afterward (Terminator, Station 11 etc)


Station Eleven is, all around, the best thing ever created. Every aspect of it is perfect.


Built https://halalcodecheck.com - a web app to scan product labels and identify the status of E-Codes. It is an offline first app and offers image scanning, upload, e-code database search through voice and typing.

It is currently in beta. Will be adding barcode scanning and other features pretty soon.

Another tool I built recently is a dashboard to provide a single view for web and social stats. Currently integrate Clicky stats (via their API). Next in line is Google Search Console and social integration.

Résumé/CV: kashifaziz.me

Product focused Software Consultant looking for remote contract or freelance positions. These days, I am doing AI-enabled software development, vibe code cleanup, MVP development and business application development. Have worked with mid-to-large sized businesses in the Europe, US and Middle East.


I started doing remote back in 2002, working with companies in the UK and US, something that was largely unheard of in my country. While our mode of communication was web messengers (AOL, Yahoo, MSN etc and the aggregators), I used IRC a lot to get tech help, and participate in online dicussions.


What is your general use case with Claude Code / Codex? $70K/year is a significant spend.
