Sabuj Ali

I build AI-powered products end to end — from idea to scale.

I’m the Co-Founder of Humance AI Labs, where we build AI-powered products and scalable web applications. I’m a self-taught developer from Bangladesh, previously at Tackle — a Y Combinator-backed startup.

About

Turning ideas into real products

I’m a self-taught Full-Stack JavaScript developer from Bangladesh. Instead of the traditional academic path, I dedicated myself completely to software — and what started as curiosity became my career.

Today, as Co-Founder of Humance AI Labs, I work across the whole stack — fast Next.js and React apps with rich interactive editors, Node.js APIs, background workers with queues and real-time updates, and the payments that tie it all together. I care about simple, scalable, maintainable software, and I spend a lot of my time making it fast.

Much of my work centers on AI — a field I work in daily and never stop learning about. With our team, we build agentic, multimodal systems that generate video, image, audio, and music, orchestrating 150+ AI models into products people genuinely use. I love turning cutting-edge AI into smarter, more capable tools.
