About · since 2019

From a $10 Fiverr gig to 180+ workflows.

I'm Waseem. Started uni in Lahore in 2017. Took my first $10 Fiverr gig in 2019 — still a student. Failed at video editing, ecommerce, Amazon. Graduated in 2021 and went service-first. Today I run SkynetLabs solo from Bali.

No account managers. You talk to the builder — Waseem, directly.

The arc

Seven years of failing in public.

Every pivot below was a real bet. Most of them lost. The wins taught me what to stop doing.

2017
Uni starts — Lahore
Enrolled in a 4-year bachelor's program. Books by day, internet rabbit-holes by night.
2019
First $10 on Fiverr
Still a uni student. First gig pays $10. Could have quit there. Didn't — kept stacking gigs between lectures.
2020
Video editing — failed
Tried to scale a video-editing side hustle alongside uni. Burned out before it scaled. Lesson: skill ≠ business.
2020
Ecommerce — failed
Dropshipping and Shopify stores. Lost money on ads. Lesson: I'm a builder, not a marketer-of-other-people's-junk.
2021
Amazon warehouse — failed
Inventory, logistics, FBA. Months of pain, zero traction. Lesson: stop chasing what's trending.
2021
Bachelor's done · service-first pivot
Graduated. Killed the side hustles. Committed full-time to building for clients. Real work, real bills, real ship.
2024
n8n + AI + the SkynetLabs identity
Picked the stack: n8n, Claude/GPT, Next.js. Stopped chasing niches — started shipping systems.
2026
180+ workflows · 9 countries · Bali base
Solo operator, AI as second seat. Public pricing. Same builder, different game.

— A letter to 2019

“If I could go back to 2019, I'd say: 2026 Waseem is proud of you. Just don't quit. You did it — with the blessing of God.”

The builder life

Cafes. Terminals. Deploys.

Same builder you'd hire — actually here, actually shipping. No agency layer, no Zoom mask. Just a fixed rhythm that ends with your thing live.

Mornings

Coffee, terminal open, Claude Code humming. The first deploy goes out before most inboxes wake up.

Build days

Multi-hour sessions, every diff read by hand. AI types fast; the taste and judgment stay human.

Ship rhythm

Staging link in your inbox, you scream-test it, I iterate. Live within the week, repo handed over.

In the room, not the inbox

Solo operator. Not a hermit.

I show up — Bali founder circles, builder meetups, cross-border ops dinners. The network you tap when I'm on your project isn't LinkedIn connections. It's people I've broken bread with.
