    I turn startup ideas into
    apps people actually use.

    I'm Jaimin Bhut — a product-minded developer for founders who need a technical partner, not just a contractor. I build, think alongside you, and stay.

    Mobile

    iOS & Android from one codebase using React Native or Flutter — shipped in weeks, not months.

    Web & Backend

    Full-stack apps and APIs built to handle your first 1,000 users and your first 100,000.

    AI Integration

    LLM and OpenAI features that reduce real friction — not just impressive demos.

    who i am

    Not just a developer.
    A technical co-founder without the equity.

    I partner with founders from idea to launch — and stay as the product grows.

    I ask why before I ask how.

    Most founders don't need a team of 10. They need one sharp person who can build fast, make good technical decisions, and tell them when an idea won't work before they've spent three months on it.

    I've spent 6 years building products across FinTech, automotive, e-commerce, and social platforms — always with the same goal: ship something the market wants, not just something that runs.

    I work directly with you. No project managers in the middle. No junior developers doing the actual work. When I need a specialist — design, DevOps, QA — I bring in people I've worked with before and trust completely.

    How I Help

    Full-cycle product development — from strategy and architecture to launch and the iteration that follows.

    01

    Your app in the App Store, fast.

    I build iOS and Android apps with React Native or Flutter. One codebase, both platforms, shipped in weeks not months. You get one expert who knows where the shortcuts are — and which ones not to take.

    • React Native & Flutter
    • Native modules when needed
    • Offline-first architecture
    • App Store & Play Store submission
    02

    The backend your app won't outgrow.

    APIs, dashboards, and data layers built for your first 1,000 users and your first 100,000. Node.js, Firebase, or whatever fits — chosen based on your product needs, not my habits.

    • Node.js, Express, Firebase
    • Admin dashboards & analytics
    • Database design & optimization
    • Secure RESTful & GraphQL APIs
    03

    AI that does something useful, not just impressive.

    I integrate OpenAI and LLM tooling into products where it genuinely reduces friction or creates value. If your AI feature doesn't make the user's life meaningfully better, I'll tell you.

    • OpenAI & Claude API integration
    • AI-powered chat & assistants
    • Smart content generation
    • Automated workflow triggers
    04

    From whiteboard to live product.

    I take a product from concept through architecture, build, testing, and launch. One conversation thread. One person responsible. No status updates about status updates.

    • Product strategy & planning
    • Architecture design
    • Testing, deployment & monitoring
    • Post-launch iteration & support

    How a project with me looks

    A repeatable process built from shipping products across 7 industries.

    01

    Discovery

    I ask the questions most developers skip — about your users, the business model, and what success actually looks like.

    02

    Architecture

    I design the system before writing a line of code. Decisions made here are 10× cheaper than decisions made mid-build.

    03

    Build

    Iterative, tested, no surprises. You see working software early and often — not a big reveal at the end.

    04

    Launch & Own

    I stay on after delivery. Most of the value in a product is in the iteration after launch, not the launch itself.

    You work directly with me — an experienced developer who values clarity, ownership, and craft. No middlemen. No hand-offs. Just solid work, delivered.

    selected work

    Products that shipped and stuck.

    Real-world apps built across industries — with the business outcome in mind, not just the feature list.

    NFT Social
    Web3 / NFTs

    NFT Social

    Built a decentralized social platform for NFT traders, integrating the DeSo blockchain for trustless transaction verification. Combined social feeds with real-time NFT portfolio visibility — a UX problem no other platform in the space had solved cleanly.

    TRS
    FinTech / Trading

    TRS

    Designed and built a group stock trading platform where users pool capital, place orders through a managed wallet system, and track portfolios in real time. Built for speed and audit compliance — two requirements that usually pull in opposite directions.

    SmartBid
    E-commerce

    SmartBid

    Built a reverse-bidding e-commerce platform where buyers name their price and sellers confirm after a cooldown period. The core challenge: communicating an unfamiliar purchase flow clearly enough that users completed it without friction.

    HHA
    Automotive / Services

    HHA

    Launched a bilingual (English & Arabic) car service booking platform for the UAE market. Google Maps integration and real-time slot management reduced missed appointments and expanded service reach across regions.

    Plates
    Food / Social

    Plates

    Designed a social platform where foodies, chefs, and restaurants share food content. Solved the multi-stakeholder problem of building a single feed that works for consumers, culinary professionals, and businesses without fragmenting the experience.

    Visual Registration
    Productivity / ERP

    Visual Registration

    Delivered an ERP-integrated time tracking and project management tool for European teams. Connected to multiple ERP systems with automated sync, replacing manual time entry and significantly reducing reporting overhead.

    RSocial
    Social / Communication

    RSocial

    Built an advanced social platform with quantified relationship scoring — a novel feature requiring careful UX design and real-time backend architecture to execute without feeling gimmicky.

    Truly
    Video / Social

    Truly

    Developed a monetized 1:1 video call platform where users pay with digital coins and hosts earn based on call duration. The hardest problem: accurate real-time billing during live calls, where delays or errors directly cost users money.

    JHD
    Tourism / Travel

    JHD

    Built a location-aware tourism guide for Jeddah Historic District, enabling Arabic-speaking tourists to discover cultural sites and book personal guides. Integrated real-time location services with rich heritage content.
