Ali Shah Lakhani

👋 Hey, I'm Ali Shah Lakhani, Founder & Chief Everything Officer of madeofzero. We started madeofzero with one mission in mind: to bring together a team of highly qualified product builders to collaborate with talented founders in solving real-world problems. We work closely with non-technical co-founders, assisting them in building and scaling their products.

Looking forward to connecting with you :)

Here’s what we’re about:

✓ Small, mighty team: We’re capping the team at 6–8 people. Each of us is here because we genuinely care about our craft—dev, design, ops, or beyond.

✓ Good enough isn’t enough: We aim higher than what’s expected. If you love pushing boundaries and doing more than the bare minimum, you'll fit right in.

✓ Show up and figure it out: Most times, we don’t fully know what we’re building—but we figure it out together. If you don’t vibe with collaboration and responsibility, this isn’t your place.

✓ Scary is exciting: We take on work others avoid. That means failing, learning, trying again. Hunger and resilience matter here.

✓ Work steady, not frantic: No burnout culture. We work smoothly and consistently—but when shit hits the fan, we’re all in.

✓ You break it, you fix it: Own your mistakes. Fix them. Learn out loud.

✓ We lead with care: Our manifesto of 'Care' is simple: care deeply about the work, the people, and the impact. That’s our baseline.

If this sounds like you, we’re excited to connect.

Discovery Call

This call is our chance to understand your goals, challenges, and see if we’re the right team to help. No fluff, just clarity.

Here’s what we’ll cover:
✓ What you’re trying to solve
✓ How we might approach it
✓ Budget and timeline expectations
✓ Whether we’re a good fit for each other

If we’re not the right team, we’ll say so—and if we know someone better suited, we’ll point you in their direction.

Simple, honest, and useful. That’s the goal.
