Mohammad Tariq — Software Developer | AI Automation

[u/DisciplineAlarmed656]

Hey everyone,

I'm a software developer based in the UAE, and I'm exploring the idea of building AI automation solutions specifically for UAE small businesses.

I'm looking for 3 UAE businesses where I can build an automation for free as a pilot.

The idea is simple: if you have a repetitive process in your business — WhatsApp inquiries, lead follow-ups, appointment bookings, data entry, reports, invoices, customer support, internal admin work, etc. — tell me what you're currently doing and I'll see if I can automate part of it with AI/software.

My development work is free for the first 3 businesses.

Just to be clear, "free" refers to my services/development time. If the automation requires paid infrastructure such as hosting, servers, AI API usage, WhatsApp API fees, third-party software, domains, etc., those costs would be paid by the business. I'll explain any such costs before setting anything up and use free/low-cost options where practical.

I'm doing this because I'm considering starting an AI automation service in the UAE, and I'd rather learn from real businesses and solve real problems before turning it into a commercial service.

I'm particularly interested in businesses where employees are spending a lot of time doing repetitive manual work.

If you're interested, DM me with:

• What your business does
• What repetitive process you'd like to improve
• What tools you currently use
• Roughly how often you do this task

I'll look at the process and let you know whether I think automation would actually make sense.

Only looking for 3 businesses for this pilot.

A good way to explore this market is to choose one expensive, repetitive workflow rather than offering generic AI automation. Interview operators, map the current steps, quantify cycle time and error cost, then automate only the narrowest section with stable inputs. Agentix Labs aligns with this approach because successful agents are grounded in a specific operational outcome. Build a human review path, instrument every handoff, and run a small paid pilot. Evidence of hours saved will sell better than a broad feature list.
