Creative Lab
The Creative Lab is an experimental space where I prototype new ideas, explore innovative data visualization techniques, and build high-impact tools to solve global governance challenges.
PolicyLens AI
The World’s Most Rigorous AI-Powered Policy Audit Tool
PolicyLens AI is a sophisticated full-stack application designed to perform automated, 9-dimensional impact assessments on public policies. By combining the analytical power of Claude with real-time data from the World Bank, Transparency International, and Hofstede Insights, it provides a "J-PAL Grade" evaluation in seconds.
Core Innovation: The 9-Dimension Framework
I engineered a proprietary analysis engine that cross-references uploaded policy documents against nine critical global benchmarks:
- 01Economic FeasibilityLive integration with World Bank GDP, poverty, and GINI data.
- 02Corruption RiskReal-time scoring via Transparency International (TI) CPI 2023.
- 03Cultural AlignmentDeep-dive analysis using the Hofstede 6D Model.
- 04Global StandardsAutomated mapping to UN SDGs, ILO, and CEDAW frameworks.

Global API Ecosystem Integration
| Integration | Purpose |
|---|---|
| World Bank API | Real-time GDP, GINI, and Poverty Metrics. |
| TI CPI 2023 | Assessing regional corruption risks for the policy. |
| Hofstede 6D | Evaluating cultural suitability (Power Distance/Individuality). |
| UN SDG 2030 | Alignment check with 17 Sustainable Development Goals. |
Evidence-Based Methodology
Adheres to the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL) MIT evidence standards and the OECD Regulatory Impact Assessment (RIA) framework.
Real-Time Source Verification
Implemented a Source Verification System using trust badges and live API fetches to eliminate AI hallucinations.
LDC-Impact Vision
Predictive Funding & Transition Analytics for Bangladesh 2026
LDC-Impact Vision is a strategic forecasting tool designed to visualize the macroeconomic shifts following Bangladesh's graduation from the Least Developed Countries status. It helps policymakers, researchers, and NGOs track the "Graduation Gap"—the transition from highly concessional LDC grants to more complex blended finance models.
The Problem It Solves
Post-2026, Bangladesh will face reduced access to the Least Developed Countries Fund (LDCF) and shifts in trade preferences (EBA). Most government departments lack a unified, real-time dashboard to see which specific sectors (Health, Agriculture, Infrastructure) will lose the most concessional funding.
Core Features
- →Funding Erosion HeatmapsVisualizes which upazilas and sectors are most reliant on LDC-specific grants that will expire post-graduation.
- →Transition SimulationUses AI to model alternative funding scenarios, such as the transition from grants to Green Climate Fund (GCF).
- →SDG-LDC LinkageMaps how the loss of specific LDC funds will impact our progress toward the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.
Technical Deep-Dive
Built on the same 9-Dimension Framework as PolicyLens AI, adapted for the UN's Smooth Transition Strategy (STS).
D3.js / Recharts providing interactive, divisional-level maps scaling the "Mymensingh Model" nationwide.
Grounded in UN Committee for Development Policy (CDP) guidelines and WTO's S&DT data.
Live funding data from UNCDF, World Bank, and the Bangladesh Planning Commission.
Institutional Alignment
This tool will serve as a flagship product for Insights Bangladesh, demonstrating how aigovbd.org's global policy frameworks can be applied to solve the most urgent economic challenge in Bangladesh's history.
FactCheck BD
Bangladesh’s First AI Fact-Checking Engine
I engineered the first AI-driven fact-checking platform specifically tailored for the Bangladeshi information landscape. In an era of rapid misinformation, this tool utilizes advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify, verify, and debunk false claims in real-time, focusing on the linguistic nuances of both Bangla and English.
factcheckbd.orgCore Innovation: The Verification Pipeline
To ensure "J-PAL Grade" accuracy, I built a multi-stage verification architecture:
- Step AClaim DetectionAn AI model that scans social media and news feeds to isolate "checkable" claims.
- Step BCross-Referencing EngineLive API integration matching claims against verified databases like BBS and PID.
- Step CContextual Sentiment AnalysisDetecting "Emotional Hooks" often used in misinformation to alert users of potential bias.
Technical Stack
Fine-tuned BERT/LLM models for Bangla semantic understanding.
High-concurrency Python/FastAPI to handle real-time news streams.
Vector database for fast "Similarity Matching" against historical rumors.
Transparency First
Aligned with the International Fact-Checking Network (IFCN) principles, ensuring citations for every fact.
Scalable Solutions
Designed to support the NagorikBD ecosystem by ensuring data-driven citizen governance.
Linguistic Precision
Specific training on the nuances of Bangla and English within the regional socio-political context.
Creative Media & Civic Advocacy
The Voice of the Transition: "Vote for Yes"
As a writer and researcher, I recognize that true institutional change requires more than just algorithms—it requires a shift in the national consciousness. During the Interim Government period, I authored and released "Vote for Yes," a civic anthem designed to mobilize the youth and emphasize the importance of democratic participation.
Project Overview
- 01Release ContextProduced during the critical election transition in Bangladesh to inspire a new generation of voters.
- 02Lyrical ThemeFocused on the concept of "Jobabdihita" (Accountability), transparency, and the collective power of the citizen’s "Yes".
- 03Cultural ImpactTranslating complex political science theories into a rhythmic narrative that resonates with the general public.
Bridging the Artist & The Engineer
In my Creative Lab, this work represents the "Narrative Layer." While tools like NagorikBD and PolicyLens AI provide the data and infrastructure for a better Bangladesh, my creative writing provides the inspiration to engage with those systems.
Why Music?
"Technology builds the road, but culture provides the direction. My work in songwriting is an extension of my AI policy research—both are dedicated to ensuring the citizen's voice is heard, counted, and respected."
