What is RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation)?

RAG combines retrieval of relevant information from knowledge bases with generative AI to provide accurate, contextual responses. It enables AI systems to access up-to-date information beyond their training data.

How much does custom AI chatbot development cost?

Custom AI chatbot development costs vary based on complexity, features, and integration requirements. Basic chatbots start from $5,000, while enterprise-grade RAG systems range from $15,000-$50,000+.

LangChain vs LlamaIndex: Which is better?

LangChain excels at complex workflows and agent chains, while LlamaIndex specializes in data indexing and retrieval. Choose LangChain for multi-step processes, LlamaIndex for document-heavy applications.

What are the benefits of Multimodal RAG?

Multimodal RAG processes text, images, and documents together, enabling comprehensive understanding of mixed-media content. It's ideal for technical documentation, medical records, and visual data analysis.

I build AI that survives reality

I'm Muaz Ashraf. I help teams turn vague AI ideas into reliable and secure, production-ready systems. Most demos fail after launch because of data quality, evaluation gaps, and fragile workflows. I design for those issues from day one.

My Projects span RAG, agent workflows, multimodal systems, voice, OCR, and automation. I focus on measurable outcomes: faster decisions, fewer manual steps, and AI that keeps working as data changes.

What Clients Say

Real results from real projects across 5 countries

Muaz was very persistent in delivering the project. It was difficult to get the end terminal to run the same as the test environment. Muaz kept working hard to complete the project - a job that three other separate programmers failed before him!

Amctalerts, Australia

Terminal Automation System

Muaz developed our custom Pharmacy POS system from scratch, streamlining billing, inventory, and prescription management. His solution reduced manual errors by 60% and cut patient wait times in half. The integrated ERR system automated compliance with DRAP regulations, saving us 20+ hours/month on paperwork. He delivered a system that now processes 500+ daily transactions flawlessly.

Dr. Hafiz Muhammad Aman, Pakistan

Pharmacy POS System

Result: 60% error reduction, 500+ daily transactions

Muaz delivered a real-time transcription system that just works. It's fast, accurate, and handles accents effortlessly—exactly what we needed. Our team's productivity jumped overnight, and the seamless integration made adoption a breeze.

Shawn, United Kingdom

Real-Time Transcription

Result: 98% accuracy, handles any accent

The RAG chatbot Muaz built for our documentation completely changed how our team finds information. What used to take 30 minutes of searching now takes seconds. The accuracy is incredible - it actually understands context.

Tech Startup, USA

Document RAG System

Result: 90% accuracy, <1 second responses

We needed an AI voice agent for after-hours calls. Muaz delivered a system that sounds natural and actually books appointments correctly. We went from missing 40% of calls to capturing nearly all of them.

Healthcare Clinic, Canada

AI Voice Agent

Result: 70% fewer missed appointments
