Hi, I’m Weimin Yao. I don’t just write code; I turn AI concepts into market-ready products. As an independent founder and AI Application Builder, I specialize in helping startups and entrepreneurs build, integrate, and launch AI-driven applications rapidly. From structuring complex LLM API calls to deploying mobile apps (live on the App Store) and handling backend server setups, I deliver complete end-to-end solutions. Here is what I do best: Rapid MVP Development: Building functional AI applications (Web/Mobile) using AI-augmented workflows so you can test your market faster. Custom AI Agents & Chatbots: Designing highly engaging, logical, and context-aware AI personas (backed by my extensive experience in interactive game narrative design). Advanced Prompt Engineering: Optimizing system prompts to ensure LLMs respond exactly how your business needs them to, minimizing hallucinations. Seamless API Integration: Connecting OpenAI, Claude, or other LLMs to your existing platforms or new applications. Why work with me? Coming from a unique background in Law and Interactive Narrative Design, I bring something rare to AI development: extreme logical precision and a deep understanding of human-computer interaction. I foresee edge cases, design rigorous system architecture, and ensure your AI tool is both highly capable and strictly compliant. I prefer clear, asynchronous written communication to ensure every technical detail is tracked and executed perfectly. Got an AI idea? Let's skip the endless meetings and start building. Send me a message, and let's map out your MVP today.
