Context

Notarization in Lebanon meant asking around and showing up at offices. 360LEX turns it into a searchable, verified marketplace: clients find notaries and understand procedures by category, and notaries get a verified professional presence.

What I did

›Created the whole project solo, from design to deployment: NestJS backend, Next.js frontend, and PostgreSQL database with Prisma, with a strong focus on user experience and accessibility.
›Implemented a CI/CD pipeline for automated testing and deployment across Vercel and Render, keeping quality and reliability high without a QA team behind me.
›Consulted for the client on product direction, advising on what to build and, just as importantly, what not to build. Gathered requirements, gave regular progress updates, and made sure the final product matched their expectations.
›Shipped the product end to end: verified notary discovery across every Lebanese region, procedure search by category, multi-language support, and a news section.
›Currently building the platform's AI capabilities: document extraction and cross-document validation pipelines.

Key decisions

Consultant first, builder second

The client came with ideas; my job was also to push back on the ones that would burn budget without moving the product. Advising on what to skip kept the launch scope tight and the roadmap honest, and it built the trust that turned a build contract into an ongoing engagement.

CI/CD before features

As a one-person team there is no QA safety net, so the pipeline is the safety net. Automated testing and deployment were set up before the feature work ramped up, meaning every change since has shipped through the same checks, and releases are a non-event.

AI grounded in real documents

Notarization runs on paperwork, so that's where AI earns its keep. We're building document extraction and cross-document validation pipelines: information is extracted once, then checked for consistency across related documents instead of being re-verified by hand.

Outcome

A zero-to-one vertical marketplace covering all Lebanese regions, approaching public launch, with AI document pipelines in active development, giving a traditionally offline profession a verified digital presence.
