Ai Solutions that cut waste and grow revenue

I work along side my team to help businesses implement Ai into their workflow to cut no-shows, capture missed leads, and save hours each week with simple Ai Solutions.

I’m Chakib El Bassam, a BSc AI & Machine Learning student at the University of Limerick who turns messy problems into working systems across software + hardware. I build efficient, reliable systems that real teams use every day.

Why businesses work with us

  • Outcome first. Each Solution we produce is built to pay for itself.

  • Fast delivery. Usually live in 5–14 days.

  • Simple handover. Clear docs, training, and rollback plan.

  • Flexible support. Month-to-month. Cancel anytime.

How we work

  1. Communicate(15–20 min)
    We start by communicating over Email, WhatsApp, or Zoom. We map your workflow. We identify inefficiencies and missed leads.
    Outcome: a clear list of problems to fix with Ai Solutions.

  2. Plan
    I propose the right technology or Ai Solution. You get scope, deadline, and a fixed price.
    Outcome: one agreed plan to ship first.

  3. Deliver and train
    We implement the solution and connect your tools. We show your team how it works today and what it can do next.
    Outcome: a live system your team can use the same day.

  4. Maintain
    We keep the solution updated and healthy for an agreed monthly fee.
    Outcome: stable performance and small improvements over time.

Selected Projects

Casino NFC Points Kiosk
Self-service points kiosk with live leaderboard. Staff queries dropped and queues moved faster. Replaced an external ~€5k vendor quote and gave the team full control.

AI Lead Concierge
Automation that replies in real time, pre-qualifies leads, and kicks off the chat. Deals moved from hours of back-and-forth to 15 minutes to close because the boring steps ran themselves.

“War Machine” — Humanoid Robot (prototype)
A 50–55 cm humanoid robot with multi-axis limbs, sensors, and on board processing. Goal: human-like movement and perception able to accomplish sophisticated physical and mental tasks. (In progress; Click me to see the Demo video )

Hand Gesture-controlled rover. Stable Python control loop, responsive steering, and clean live video feed—fun demo that just works. Click me to see the Demo video

My Harvard CS50 final project "Caura"
a quiz-driven movie/TV recommender. Users answer seven questions. Caura fetches, cleans, and caches IMDb data to deliver fast recommendations with trailers, ratings, and a Wikipedia link.
