Built a Telegram chatbot that streamlined vendor inventory and order management into a single conversational workflow, reducing the need for manual inventory updates and follow-ups.
The system enables vendors to onboard, manage products and pricing, update stock, schedule inventory check-ups, receive automated reminders, and track orders directly through Telegram.
Implemented the backend with NestJs/Node.js/TypeScript, Redis, and BullMQ for asynchronous processing and scheduled jobs, with Docker-based deployment, phone-number authentication, and external service integrations.
Project outcomes:
Automated recurring inventory check-ups and vendor reminders
Centralized product, pricing, stock, and order management
Reduced manual follow-ups through scheduled notifications
Enabled vendors to manage operations directly from Telegram
Built a scalable queue-based architecture for background jobs

Built this AI agent to find, organize, and manage leads through Gmail, helping automate lead handling and outreach.
n8n is absolute gold for orchestrating lead pipelines like this! Connecting Gmail parsing with LLM qualification saves teams dozens of hours weekly. As someone who builds custom agentic lead automation workflows, seeing clean visual architectures like this is super satisfying. Top-tier build, Talha!.
I built The Quiet Chair, a booking experience for a fictional single-chair hair studio in Baner, Pune, run by a solo stylist named Mira.
Mira’s problem is simple: every booking message interrupts an appointment. Checking availability, confirming times, and handling changes take attention away from the customer in her chair.
The app lets customers choose a service, see available times, and receive an immediate booking confirmation. Availability accounts for opening hours, lunch breaks, existing appointments, and cleanup time. Customers can request a quiet appointment and use a secure link to reschedule or cancel, with online changes closing four hours before their appointment.
Mira has a protected owner workspace to view her daily agenda, check customer preferences, manage appointments, and block personal time.
I built it to turn “Can I book with you?” into “You’re booked” without needing a reply from the owner—and to make later changes just as straightforward. The result is fewer messages, fewer manual calendar checks, and more time for Mira to focus on her clients. @Lovable
A food-ordering app for customers and kitchen staff: limited daily dishes, live order tracking, and a kitchen board that updates the moment a payment clears. The hard part is staying correct when many people act at once — limited stock is never oversold, a retried checkout never creates a second order, a duplicated payment webhook never charges twice, and every cent moves through a double-entry ledger. Each of those guarantees has an integration test against a real PostgreSQL database.
Spring Boot 3 (Java 21), React, PostgreSQL. The restaurants are fictional and payments go through a simulated card processor.
