Urbyo, a marketplace for property investors

Buy and sell investment property in one place. Built the buy-and-sell flows on the marketplace team, then stood up the professional-market side.

Problem

Buying an investment property is slow and opaque, and professional investors need a different surface than first-timers.

Built

On the marketplace team, built and sharpened the buy-and-sell flows, then set up the professional market: the listings and tooling for the pro side of the platform, kept separate from the retail path.

Digitizing the city of Riyadh

Making legal-text LLMs quote their sources

CoCoLex: confidence-guided, copy-based decoding that keeps legal text faithful to its sources.

Building the mobile team from zero

Started on the web and backend side. Co-founded the mobile team with a colleague, shipped its first apps, then set the conventions, CI/CD, and hiring bar that everything after ran on.

Problem

WebOps kept winning mobile work and rebuilding each app from scratch, with no shared conventions and no release pipeline to lean on. Every project relearned the same lessons.

Built

Split off from the web team with [George Gendy (G.O.A.T)](https://www.linkedin.com/in/grgmgd) to start the mobile practice. Together with the team, shipped the first three React Native apps by hand, then turned the lessons into a system: shared architecture, a Fastlane and GitHub Actions pipeline for tests, builds, and store releases, and a review bar that made each app faster than the last. Introduced techniques for faster production, software templates, and reusable modules, so the projects coming in ran 5x higher and deliveries kept up. Ran hiring, and led the engineering on the rest.

Cuerious: how flow-y is your playlist

Scores how well your playlist flows, then reorders it into a set that actually mixes.

Problem

A playlist is a sequence, but every tool treats it as a bag. Spotify tells you what is in it, not whether track seven lands after track six.

Built

Connect Spotify, paste a playlist, get a report. It scores key compatibility, tempo drift and the energy arc across every pair of tracks, then searches for the order with the smoothest transitions. You pick the shape you want, whether that is a build, a plateau or a slow descent. It flags the track that does not belong and says why in plain words, suggests a few that would fit, and writes the new order back to Spotify once you like it. Bring a playlist you already argue with and see what it says.

Wellpit: a coach that adjusts

Training and nutrition that rewrite themselves when the check-in says they should.

Problem

A plan written on day one is wrong by week three. The honest version has to read what actually happened and change itself. That is the part most plans skip.

Built

Set a goal and a deadline, and it works out the calories and builds the week. Log meals by photo or by pasting a delivery order. Sessions, runs pulled from Strava and weight from a Bluetooth scale all land in the same place. At each check-in it reads the log and comes back with real changes: eat this much more, add a set here, swap that exercise. Your Strava runs tick the matching Hivelab habits too. Come with the goal you keep restarting and let it hold the plan for you.
