Portrait of Adam Zailani

I turn cutting-edge AI research into working products — on-premise LLM deployments, RAG pipelines, and computer vision systems that run on real hardware, for real clients.

About

A young tech enthusiast on a mission to make an impact — wherever I go.

I'm Adam, a freelance AI developer based in Bangi, Malaysia. With a knack for problem-solving and a passion for innovation, I bring a fresh perspective and a hunger for learning to every project I tackle — from coding complex algorithms to diving into the latest advancements in AI.

My work spans the full journey of an AI idea: researching the right architecture, prototyping fast, and then hardening it into something that runs reliably on real infrastructure — often self-hosted, always cost-conscious. I thrive on challenges and love turning ideas into reality.

Live Demos

Don't take my word for it — play with the work. Each demo below is a small, self-contained system I designed and built end to end.

01

AI Council

Put a controversial topic to a council of three models — they debate it live while a bigger, more capable model referees and delivers the verdict.

LLM Chat

Chat with a language model hosted on my own hardware, streamed through a rate-limited proxy I built — the same self-hosted setup I deploy for clients.

RAG Q&A

Ask questions over real documents and watch retrieval-augmented generation work — with the exact source chunks the model used, shown alongside every answer.

Hand Puppet

Puppet a procedural 3D hand with your webcam. Frames stream to my GPU host, MediaPipe extracts 21 landmarks per hand, and three.js retargets them in real time — with a skeleton overlay on your feed and a 3D puppet beside it.

Live Personal Projects

Not everything lives in a sandbox. These are real services I host on my own hardware and use every day — take them for a spin.

Jellyfin

jellyfin.arrflixx.ovh

My self-hosted media server. Requests come in through Seerr, Sonarr and Radarr hunt down the releases, SABnzbd+ downloads them, Bazarr fetches subtitles and Unmanic squeezes the files down — then Jellyfin serves it all to every screen in the house. Fully automated, zero subscriptions.

Seerr

jellyseerr.arrflixx.ovh

The front door to the stack — a clean request portal where friends and family ask for movies and shows, and approved requests flow straight into the Jellyfin automation pipeline. Sign in with the same tester account and place a request yourself.

Immich

immich.arrflixx.ovh

My Google Photos replacement. Every shot from my phone auto-uploads to my own server, where machine learning makes it all searchable — faces, objects, places — without a single byte touching a third-party cloud.
