Taking on a few AI agent builds · 2026

Sanjay Ahlawat

I build AI agents and automations for the messy work people keep postponing. Most projects start with a spreadsheet, an inbox, or a workflow nobody wants to touch — and end as software that carries its own weight.

How I help

Practical AI work, scoped around one real bottleneck.

No pitch deck needed. A rough workflow is enough to start — the rest is engineering.

01 / Audit

Find the workflow

Map the current steps, risks, tools, and handoffs before deciding what should be automated at all.

02 / Build

Ship the agent

Build the first useful version with logs, review points, and a clear path for the edge cases.

03 / Product

Design the interface

Create the screens people need to review, correct, trust, and actually operate the automation.

First step

A workflow audit before anyone writes code.

We map the steps, find the automation points, define the human review rules, and decide honestly whether an agent is worth building.

  1. Step 01 Map the flow
  2. Step 02 Find the seams
  3. Step 03 Set guardrails
  4. Step 04 Ship a slice
  5. Step 05 Measure & iterate

You bring

  • One workflow that costs time every single week.
  • The tools involved: inbox, CRM, spreadsheet, docs, helpdesk.
  • What could go wrong if automation makes a bad call.

You get

  • A plain-language map of how the work actually moves.
  • The first useful automation slice, built and running.
  • A guardrail plan for review, logs, permissions, rollout.

Selected work

Workflow demos and build patterns.

Each one shows the workflow, the human review points, the tools involved, and the guardrails worth inspecting before trusting automation.

AI Agent · Demo pattern

Lead Qualification Agent

Researches inbound leads, drafts the first reply, and prepares the CRM update so sales never starts from a blank screen.

Claude API n8n Laravel
Automation

AI Content Pipeline

Turns rough briefs into drafts, checks coverage, and readies articles for a human editor without pretending the editor is optional.

OpenAI Queues Vue
Support Agent

Support Triage Agent

Reads new tickets, classifies urgency, drafts replies from the knowledge base, and escalates edge cases with full context.

LLM Webhooks Postgres
RAG System

Knowledge Base Copilot

Internal search that answers from real documents and shows its source, because nobody should have to trust a mystery answer.

Pinecone LangChain Python
Ops Automation

Invoice Processing Agent

Reads invoices, pulls out the boring fields, catches odd numbers, and leaves finance only the parts worth checking.

OCR Claude Laravel
Hiring Agent

Candidate Screening Agent

Reviews resumes against the actual role, explains the tradeoffs, and hands recruiters a cleaner shortlist to argue with.

RAG Evals Node
CRM Agent

WhatsApp Follow-up Agent

Follows up with warm leads, answers the FAQs, updates CRM stages, and pings sales the moment a buyer is actually ready.

WhatsApp API n8n
Meeting Agent

Meeting Intelligence Agent

Pulls decisions, risks, and follow-ups out of call transcripts before everyone forgets what was agreed.

Expertise

Where I add the most value.

The work usually crosses a few lines: product thinking, backend plumbing, prompts, interfaces, and the unglamorous parts that keep things running.

01

AI Agents

Agents for jobs that already exist: research, support, lead scoring, messy handoffs, and the parts that need judgment before action.

Featured
02

AI Automation

Automations that connect the tools you actually use: CRMs, inboxes, databases, docs, queues, and the occasional stubborn API.

Featured
03

LLM Integration & RAG

OpenAI, Claude, local models, retrieval, vector search, and prompts written around the job rather than around a clever demo.

Featured
04

Full-Stack Engineering

Laravel, Node, APIs, queues, databases, auth, billing, dashboards. The boring parts are where AI features survive or die.

05

Product & UI Design

Screens for reviewing, correcting, approving, and trusting AI output. Most agent projects need less chat and more product design.

06

AI Strategy & Consulting

Deciding what is worth automating, what needs a human in the loop, and what should probably just be left alone.

My story

Thirteen years of shipping, and still learning.

I started building for the web while studying Computer Science at Delhi University. I left the degree, kept the work, and never really stopped learning by shipping. These days it’s mostly AI agents — but the old rules still hold: clear data, sane interfaces, good failure paths, and no magic where a boring check would do.

Clients usually come to me when they need one person who can shape the workflow, build the agent, design the review screen, and wire the whole thing into the tools they already use.

2023 — Present · Current focus

AI Engineer · Independent

AI Agents & Automation · Remote

Building agents and automations for founders and small teams. Usually OpenAI or Claude, often n8n, sometimes LangChain or RAG, almost always tied back to a Laravel or Node product.
