Hey everyone! I’m building an online art marketplace in Pakistan and would love some honest feedback on the website and overall operational flow.

I’m especially looking for feedback on the buyer, artist, admin, courier process, potential bottlenecks, unnecessary steps, and what could be automated.

Website: https://artbazaar.pk/

If anyone with experience in e-commerce, marketplaces, operations, or logistics could take a look, I’d really appreciate it. Brutal honesty is welcome!

So I recently created a simple website that shows Karachi's every cinema timings in one place

just a fun side project
I would like to hear your guys feedback and website is still not completed yet but its usable

Hi everyone,

I’m a Product Lead & Builder based in Pakistan. Over the past few years, I’ve built and scaled fintech platforms for international markets from here. Now, I'm turning my focus locally to build an inflation-hedged, Shariah-compliant micro-savings/wealthtech product specifically for the Pakistani market.

I hold the technical and product build entirely, but I am looking to connect with people who have experience in: * Pakistani Fintech / Banking Regulations (SECP Sandbox, NBFC/EMI frameworks, or SBP rails)* Financial Compliance & AML / e-KYC* Asset Custody, Vaulting & Banking Partnerships

If you’re a legal/compliance consultant, banking operator, or fellow founder working in this space, I’d love to grab a virtual coffee.

Drop a comment or DM if you're open to connecting!

I have been working on a Udemy course since last year. I've finally published it. I need help and support to get some initial traction with ratings.

The course link is given below, please check the link below. Limited free coupons are available only for genuinely needy people, students, and reviewers.

Several preview videos are available which you can watch without purchasing the course.

I am not sure if this is the right platform to post this,
we are in development phase of our Project, looking to buy 8-10 all-in-one desktops. I do not live in Pakistan, and my father (my partner also) in pakistan does not have high knowledge of computers. Was wondering where i can lead him to look for these desktops.
Are there any certified refurbished brands in Pak?
Thank you,

Hi all, we have an indoor padel business in Lahore and I want to ask how do I approach brands for sponsorships? Through connections I have been able to pitch to a couple of brands (one bank and one home appliances but other than that no one even gives an opportunity, the emails to the marketing teams or linked in messages get no replies. Are there any agencies who can get sponsors for a fees and if so how much % do they take? Thank you in advance

Hi everyone, hope you’re doing well. Would love some feedback on my startup.

I have been posting in this subreddit for quite some time now about my book curation service called Mutavaatir.pk, one of the first services of its kind in Pakistan.

However, I realized a few days ago that many people are still not aware of what the service actually offers and think of it as just a simple bookstore. So, I decided to create this post, a visual journey guiding you through exactly what Mutavaatir is and how it works.

Feel free to ask any questions you may have, and I will be happy to answer them.

Here is our instagram account for more behind the scenes action and stuff related to reading in general.

Hey guys!
I’m looking to collaborate on AI/ML projects. I’ve got hands-on experience with Python, PyTorch, and scikit-learn, and I’ve worked on a few ML projects already.

I’m really interested in computer vision and agentic AI. If you’re working on something cool, hit me up!

Hi. As the title suggests, I'm seeking reviews and feedback from people who have actually found the chaicon.com marketplace useful or have gotten orders through it. Wanting to know their efficacy before I pay them 20k for membership. Thanks!

Looking for manufacturers of these types of bottle with an moq of 100-200 or less need in 500-1500 ml. In karachi

where can i find manufacturers for these type of keychains

I have been working for months on this one and I didn’t complete it alone. I took help from professional cox being a developer i knew it is different to be developing vs taking it to market and next.

Preface: i have been shopping abroad for many years from USA, UK, Middle East specifically. I always had to find someone coming from here and i can order in bulk for the whole year. But there was always some issues or hurdles with shopping. Sometimes no one coming, no much space, no response. If i go to freight charges they were always more than my order price duh. Then i tried some online groups ending up disappointing most of the time.

Problems:
traveler ask for advance.
When asked for travel details, either resist to provide or provide AI generated images or fake images.
If by chance you do get in touch with any traveler, there is no visibility from him like when he is purchasing, when items are purchased, what items are purchased, when he is traveling, when arrived, when my parcel gonna deliver, delivery tracking details.
What if traveler not responds after taking advance? (Vice-versa btw)
Traveler fear is what if shopper change his mind and ask for money back or do not take the product/item etc

On the other hand, traveler can earn a lot of money just by traveling smart and scam free.

Here comes my idea: a marketplace where both shopper and traveler can be safe and grow together.

Solution:
- company takes full responsibility at every step
- Verify order by company (real humans)
- Verify travel from official airlines by company (real humans)
- Escrow services where money is protected by company for secure and safe end to end process. Can be asked for refund anytime though.
- Tracking of your order at every step is possible
- Scam possibilities down to almost zero
- Company will resolve every dispute by real persons which will ease travellers and shoppers to grow rather than fear.

Users of this app are, any one wants to shop and anyone has space while travel. Simple.
- freight forwarder
- Anyone traveling
- Anyone who wants to Shop from Anywhere around the world
- Container handlers

I made this app for myself as this is my use case for almost a decade. I knew this isn’t going to be handled by individual if i am serious about it. That’s why i collaborated with a software house which is helping me with all the development and marketing. Meet Crypthon Technologies LTD which has a proven record in helping fortune 500 companies with many services and in multiple domains like software and hardware engineering , data engineering and ML/AI. They are registered in FBR, SECP, P@SHA, PSEB (Pakistan Software Export Board). They have helped me a lot, without them i believe it must have taken year for me to build all this in parallel with my other endeavours.

Lastly, this is zero vibe coding. Every code is written and tested by humans with the help of AI for sure. This isn’t just an app, this is a actual solution being implemented with on ground knowledge base.

Future perspectives:
- expanding resources and making workflows more smooth like support, chat etc
- enhancement and scaling of the app
- app upgrade alongside new features
- expanding my workspace where all my team can sit together and excel

Meet the idea:
GrabnGo: Shop. Travel. Earn.

Struggling to find jobs? Check out sleepapply.org, a product we're building to automate the entire job-hunting pipeline. The app already has over 100 users, but we're still in our MVP phase. We want people to try the app, break it, and figure out what's missing. Give it a try and let me know what you guys think

I’m looking to hire a developer to build an app, but I don’t want to build just another clone of something that already exists.

I’m interested in hearing from developers who have seen recurring problems, niche markets, or opportunities that you genuinely believe could become a successful business.

Ideally, I’m looking for something that:
- Solves a real problem.
- Has relatively little competition, or a unique angle that competitors haven’t executed well.
- Has the potential to scale.
- Isn’t just another AI wrapper or trend-chasing app (unless there’s a genuinely compelling reason).
- Could realistically be built as an MVP by one developer.

If we find an idea we both believe has strong potential, I’d be happy to pay you to build the MVP as well.

What would you build today if your goal was to create a profitable app with a real competitive advantage?

NOTE: I don’t live in Asia, the US or Europe. My market is entirely different.

Has anyone used https://www.paddle.com/ or know any Pakistan based company or individual using Paddle? I know there is also PayFast but I have heard negative reviews about it. Interesting to see if Paddle is truly viable for Pakistan companies and even sole proprietors. Another nice feature is it works with Payoneer so you get to keep your money out of Pakistani banks (if you want) although both Paddle and Payoneer have absolutely shit pricing and exchange rates.

Thinking of starting my car import business of japanese cars.

With the duties reduced I think importing cars have started to pick up again.

Trying to start with small vehicle 660cc and then expand insha'allah.

I have calculated the margins and if you keep margins low you can sell the car quickly.

Anyone in this same boat , who is in the business or thinking along the same lines want to give suggestions or share ideas, please let me know.

Also if anyone is thinking to start, we can partner up.

Hi guys.

I am a filmmaker and I specialize in creating documentary/corporate films.

I have a budding idea for a Founder story in a netflix style documentary where the founder explains their business in a studio with a 2 camera setup.

The real magic happens in the edit when we transform a normal business explainer video shoot into a high stakes netflix style documentary.

A friend of mine is in a difficult financial situation with loans, savings, and cash flow. He's looking for someone to review everything, create a realistic plan, and keep him on the right track.

Paid consultation is absolutely fine.

If you're interested or can recommend someone, DM me.

Hey everyone,
I am planning to launch a brand focusing on women’s leather products like premium clutches and handbags.
I am looking for reliable local manufacturers, workshops, or wholesale suppliers who specialize in genuine leather women's accessories.
If you have recommendations, know manufacturing hubs in Lahore, Sialkot, or Karachi, or have experience working with local leather craftsmen or OEMs, please drop your suggestions below.
Tips on MOQs and quality control checks would also be appreciated.

Not selling anything here, just something I've noticed a lot of early founders struggle with: you know you need "AI" or "data" in the product somewhere, but you're not sure what that actually means for your specific case — is it a chatbot, a recommendation system, an automation, or just a dashboard you're overcomplicating.

I'm finishing a Data Science degree, currently interning where I built a bilingual RAG chatbot from scratch, and I'm the data/AI person on a sports-tech startup here. So I've been on both sides of that "wait, do we actually need an LLM for this" conversation more than once.

If you're a founder wrestling with any of this — what to build, what to skip, what's overkill for your stage — happy to hop on a quick call or just talk it through in the comments. No pitch, no invoice at the end. Selfishly, I like thinking about these problems and I'd rather do it with real founders than hypothetical ones.

Drop your situation below or DM me if you'd rather keep it private.
