Pulled straight from Fiverr: 69 reviews from 19 countries. Typos included. On Fiverr I’m rehan_sathio.
i had another guy working on the same project for almost a month and failed! rehan did it in three days!!!! … Anything he didn't know, he quickly researched and found a resolution immediately.
vasilynaumenkoUnited States · Fiverr · 3 years agoHe immediately understands requirements, and is very tech savvy. … he is not afraid of doing more than asked
hit him up late at night, answered right away. Told him the requirements and he started working that night. By the morning, he's done more than 40 % of the work.
This is the fifth time I’ve worked with this developer, and I’m still amazed by his expertise. The website’s AI and data science features are exactly what I needed, and the execution was perfect.
paulstank347Finland · Fiverr · 10 months agoFifth project togetherWas having a small melt down, was able to get the fix i need to continue on with my own project.. very patient and would recommend.
rehan stayed up all night and finished the whole react dashboard. Very impressive work! I'd definitely work with rehan again.
Asked to clone and teach me a complex website, with the algorithm! insane.

The website satisfied all of my requirements, and any changes i requested were implemented promptly. Along with the construction, i was given a lot of explanations of various ideas to make the process go smoothly. Very pleased and will place another order for next projects.

Knowing When the Object Is Not There: Calibrated Few-Shot Presence Detection for Teachable Object Recognition on Mobile Devices
MS Artificial Intelligence thesis, Bahria University
Teachable recognizers for blind and low-vision users always name an object, even when it isn’t there. In a pilot on ORBIT-India, thresholds meant to catch 90% of appearances caught 62% at best. The thesis calibrates that decision.

Speaking
On-device AI at AI Tinkerers Karachi
Demoing my on-device AI work at the AI Tinkerers Karachi demo meetup on Saturday, October 31: models that run on the phone itself, with nothing sent to a server.
Researching
My thesis: knowing when the object is not there
Phones that help blind and low-vision users find their own objects always name something, even in an empty frame. My pilot on ORBIT-India: thresholds meant to catch 90% of appearances caught 62% at best. I’m building a conformal calibration method that tells the user “it’s not here” at a tested level of reliability, on a mid-range Android.
The thesisSince Sep 2026Learning
Deep Learning & Optimization
My favourite course so far. The part that clicks is the math: how weights actually move and why a model works, not just which API to call.
