Orion: AI Sales Assistant + Lead Desk for UI Trax I built Orion, an AI sales assistant that now runs live on my own business website, plus a private Lead Desk to manage every conversation it brings in.
What Orion does:
Replies 24/7 in English and Roman Urdu
Answers questions about services, team and projects
Quotes only from a fixed price list, so it never invents numbers
Collects name, email and WhatsApp, and saves every chat as a lead
"Get instant quote" buttons open Orion with the question already asked
The Lead Desk:
Follow-up queue sorted by who has waited longest
One-tap WhatsApp with a pre-written message, follow-up recorded automatically
Pipeline: New, Contacted, Proposal sent, Won, Lost
Full chat history, notes, search, filters and CSV export
Built with: Gemini AI, Supabase (database, login and edge functions), HTML, CSS and JavaScript, hosted on Hostinger.

For me, it’s cultural context. AI can generate references, but it can’t fully replicate lived experience. As a South African creative, so much of my work relies on instinct, memory, language and the nuances of how we actually experience our culture.
