Founder of RecalfySoftware Engineer at Viralspot AI

Abir Kolin

I build full-stack products, AI agents, browser extensions, and the scrapers and data pipelines that feed them — from the first commit to production.

Selected work

Scraping & data

Getting data out of platforms that would rather you didn't — reliably, at volume, and without burning accounts.

  1. Instagram data API

    Production scraper for a creator-analytics platform

    An in-house scraping service that replaced paid third-party providers as the platform's main source of Instagram data.

    • 99.88% answered at 300 req/min over an hour
    • 63% less proxy traffic per request
    • p50 under 2 s
    • Python
    • FastAPI
    • HTTP/2
    • Redis
    • MongoDB
  2. Daraz Bangladesh products & reviews

    Daraz.com.bd · published on Kaggle

    Six parallel browser tabs intercept the store's own listing API, since images never reach the DOM in a headless browser. Details come from a second internal endpoint, reviews from a third at twelve requests at a time, and the run saves its state after every category so it resumes where it stopped. Released as an open dataset with anonymized reviews and face-blurred photos.

    • 14,663 products
    • 47 categories
    • ~14,900 reviews
    • Python
    • Playwright
    • aiohttp
    • PostgreSQL
    • Cloudflare R2
  3. HireLens AI

    Facebook job groups

    A job board that builds itself from the Facebook groups where Bangladeshi developer roles actually get posted. Each post is turned into role, skills, salary and location as structured data, duplicates are dropped, and it is searchable within minutes. Fifth place at Hack The AI.

    • Scraper
    • AI extraction
    • Digest emails

Browser extensions

Manifest V3 extensions that work inside the page — reading what it already loaded rather than hammering the site.

  1. FoodFeed Collector

    Chrome · Manifest V3 · Facebook groups

    Collects food-review posts from Facebook groups without making a single request of its own: it reads the responses Facebook's page already loads, which carry the full post even when the page truncates it. Handles Bangla, Banglish and English, archives images server-side before their signed links expire, and paces its scrolling like a person.

    • Zero requests of its own
    • Full post text, even when truncated
    • Vanilla JS
    • Node
    • MongoDB
  2. Instagram analytics extension

    Chrome · Manifest V3

    Built for a creator-analytics platform: ranks the posts on any Instagram profile by how well they performed.

  3. RewindBug

    Chrome · Manifest V3

    Visual rewind for bug reports. Reproduce the bug, then replay the page with its network requests, console and clicks in sync, with an optional two-minute rolling buffer so you can rewind after it happens. It traces the likely cause from interaction to failed request to error, and exports to Markdown, HTML, HAR, GitHub, Jira or Linear. Everything stays local.

    • WXT
    • React
    • TypeScript
    • rrweb
  4. Wisdomic AI extensions

    Chrome

    Two iterations of a browser extension that brought Wisdomic AI's paper breakdowns and citations to the page you are reading.

    • JavaScript, then React

About

I turn rough product ideas into usable software: frontend flows, backend services, AI-assisted features, and production deployment. I founded Recalfy, an AI memory assistant in Telegram, and work on the product, pipelines and AWS behind Viralspot AI. On the side I run MockClub, free mock interviews with real people.

Experience

  1. Recalfy

    Remote · Open source

    Founder

    Aug 2026 — Present

    An AI memory agent on Telegram and WhatsApp. Instead of similarity search, the model gets your whole memory on every message, so corrections and negations are read correctly rather than missed. Facts are stored atomically and a correction replaces the old one. Unprompted reminders, an expense tracker, and Paddle subscription billing across tiered plans; hosted, or self-host with one command.

  2. Viralspot AI

    Ontario, Canada · Remote

    Software EngineerFull-time

    Nov 2025 — Present

    • Next.js
    • NestJS
    • AWS
    • Claude Agent SDK
    • MCP

    Built the dashboard's AI agent on the Claude Agent SDK, with custom MCP tools it chains to answer analytics questions across reel data and uploaded CSV, JSON and audio files; it runs on AWS Lambda behind a NestJS API. Built the outlier-detection and competitor-analytics dashboards over Instagram and TikTok reels, with discovery feeds on MongoDB Atlas Search, and shipped a second product, Marketing Hub, end to end.

  3. MockClub

    Remote · Open source

    Founder

    Jul 2026 — Present

    Free mock interviews with real people, never AI. Volunteers run structured sessions across 12 career tracks, matched by timezone and language, and send written feedback afterwards. The codebase is open source so the service stays free for good.

  4. SupeCoder.dev

    Grew from part-time intern to full-time engineer, shipping job listings, mock interviews, interview scheduling, and a coding-practice and contest platform.

  5. DIU Academia Review

    Remote

    Founder

    Aug 2024 — Jan 2025

    A faculty review platform for Daffodil International University, built with Tuhin. 396+ teachers listed and 890+ reviews, with anonymous feedback, detailed profiles and secure auth.
