Mani Khan · software engineer & freelancer since 2009

I'm a full-stack web developer in Faisalabad, and I build bots that do the busywork.

AI agents and automations — plus the websites and online stores they plug into. Designed and coded by me, Mani Khan, from Faisalabad, Pakistan.

01 The lab’s specialties

Websites, online stores, marketing, AI agents, and automations.

For 15+ years that has meant websites, online stores and the marketing around them. Now it also means AI agents and automations that run on top of the systems you already use.

Featured Specimen A

AI agents

A defined job, not an open chatbot.

I build agents that take a specific job off your plate. Not a widget that will talk about anything — an agent that reads the systems you already have, follows the steps we agree on, and stops when a person should take over.

Answers from your own pages, docs or product data — and says when it doesn’t know.
Drafts a reply, summarizes a thread or looks up an order before anyone hits send.
Plugs into WordPress, WooCommerce or a custom app, with a log of everything it did.

I write the integration myself: the instructions, the tool calls, the limits, and the path for when the model is wrong.

Featured Specimen B

Automations

Forms, orders, and the next step.

When a form is submitted, an order is paid or a status changes, the next step should happen without anyone retyping it. I connect those paths and test what happens when a step fails.

A WooCommerce order or a form that creates the record, the task or the email your team expects.
A scheduled job that syncs stock, cleans a list or sends a report you can actually read.
Webhooks between WordPress, a custom API and the tools you already open every day.

I keep the chain short enough to explain: you can see what ran, what failed, and how to switch it off.

Website design & development

Modern, user-friendly, for any size of business.

I have vast experience in web application development: websites and web apps built with current tools and written as clean, organized code, so they keep working well for years.

I also provide cross-platform UI design — layouts that stay easy to use on a phone and on a desk.

Consulting

Interested in starting an online store, or looking to promote your business online? I consult with startups on the first steps to get the business found online.

I believe quality is always better than quantity — and a project is not complete until you are 100% satisfied.

02 The human in the lab

Hello! I’m Mani Khan.

My real name is Abdul Rehman — people know me as Mani Khan. I’m a software engineer based in Faisalabad, Punjab, Pakistan, building modern, user-friendly websites and web apps for any size of business.

I started freelancing as a front-end developer in 2009. My first project was the front-end of an eCommerce store for an Australia-based business. Since then I’ve worked with local and international clients alike.

When you work with me, you are not working with a broker. As a programmer, I do the programming myself — and when a deadline needs more hands, I work with a team of other professionals so you get a higher-quality result.

These days I also build AI agents and automations that sit on top of the websites, stores and tools my clients already use.

WordPress is oxygen for me. I know it like the back of my hand.

Innovative

I look to enhance my clients’ productivity by providing innovative ideas.

Prompt

My clients’ success is my first priority. I make myself available so there are no long lag times in our communication.

Creative

I love to go beyond the website norms and showcase my clients' work with a creative approach.

Smart

I keep up to date with the field and keep educating myself on the ever-changing world of technology.

03 The recipe

Six short steps to your brand new website.

Every project goes into the same cauldron. The steps below are how a website gets built. Stores and automations go through the same six stages. I like long-term relationships, so launch is where our work together starts — not where it ends.

Step 01

Discussion

We talk about the goals of the website. Once we know why you want a new site, we work together to identify the content it needs and the features it should have.
Step 02

Planning

Once I understand your needs, I create a plan to design and develop the website to meet your specifications.
Step 03

Design

Functionality matters, but good design makes a visitor want to stay. I work on the layout with responsiveness, a user-friendly experience and an aesthetically pleasing look in mind.
Step 04

Coding

The most specialized stage. I pride myself on writing clean, organized code, so you have a highly functioning website for years to come.
Step 05

Testing

I test the site internally first, then you test it on your end. Everything should work, and it should launch with no loading errors or bugs.
Step 06

Launch

The site goes live on your domain for the world to see. I hope you’ll come back to me for future updates and digital marketing.
