u/No-Examination1798

Founder hiring directly for one person. Paid from the first task, nothing unpaid.

What it is. A commercial building gets one electricity bill and one water bill for the whole place, and no shop has a meter — so someone splits one bill across seventy shops by hand every month. That takes a day, so it slips, and years of arrears pile up.

I built the thing that does it in a minute. It's live, real client, real money moving through it. Reads the landlord's forwarded bank messages, works out which shop paid, answers his questions over Telegram.

More buildings coming and I can't do the next one alone.

Stack: TypeScript on Node 22, Next.js, SQLite as a genuine system of record — reversals instead of deletes, migrations that can't lose a row. No Kubernetes, no ML, no vector DBs.

Honest: it's accounting before it's code. Half of any task is "what does this number mean, and does the paperwork agree with it". Tedious to some people, satisfying to others — know which you are before applying.

Level: 0-2 years. Something built I can click. You use AI and you read its output before shipping — there's real money in this ledger. Invoicing / GST / inventory / ledger experience is a big plus, it's most of what this is.

Pay: ₹5,000-6,000 per task, ₹10,000-15,000 for bigger pieces, paid on delivery whether or not I use the result. Small on purpose, ongoing if it works out. Directly with me, no layers, no standups.

Founder here, hiring directly. Not a recruiter, no fees, nothing unpaid.

The problem. A commercial building gets one electricity bill and one water bill for the whole place, and no shop has a meter. So every month someone splits one bill across seventy shops by hand — a full day, so it slips, and three years later there's a pile of arrears nobody can explain and every tenant is arguing.

I built the thing that does it in a minute. It's live, with a real client and real money moving through it: it reads the landlord's forwarded bank messages, works out which shop paid, answers his questions over Telegram, and shows him where every unit stands.

One building today. More coming, and I can't do the next one alone.

What it really is: accounting before it's code. Half of any task is "what does this number mean, and does the paperwork agree with it". If that's tedious rather than satisfying, skip this one.

Level: 0-2 years. You've built something I can click, and you read what the AI hands you before shipping it — there's real money in this ledger.

Pay: ₹5,000-6,000 per task, ₹10,000-15,000 for larger pieces, paid on delivery whether or not I use the result. Small on purpose, ongoing if it works, with areas you own outright. I won't promise a month-six number because anyone who does is guessing.

Directly with me — no layers, no ticket queue, no standups. If you've built anything with invoices, GST, inventory or a ledger, say so; that's most of what this is.

The problem I work on. A commercial building gets one electricity bill and one water bill for the whole place, and no shop has a meter.

What the work actually is: accounting before it's code. Half of any task is "what does this number mean, and does the paperwork agree with it", then a change to make that true in software. If that sounds tedious rather than satisfying, this one isn't for you.

Who it suits: 0-2 years. You've built something I can click. You use AI and you read what it hands you before you ship it — there is real money in this ledger. If you've ever built anything involving invoices, GST, inventory or a ledger, say so, because that's most of what this is.

The money, plainly, because vagueness here helps nobody: ₹5,000-6,000 for a normal task, ₹10,000-15,000 for a bigger piece. Paid on delivery whether or not I end up using the result. That's deliberately small — it's how we both find out whether we work well together without either of us committing to something we regret. If it works it becomes ongoing, you own areas of it outright, and it grows as the business does. I'm not going to promise you a number in month six, because anyone who does is guessing.

You'd work directly with me. No layers, no ticket queue, no standups.
