Hi, I'm Antor.
I build companies.

Premium Founder-to-Founder Company Builder and founder of NextBangla Ltd. Currently building 7 AI startups in parallel, working with global founders from our headquarters in Uttara, Dhaka, Bangladesh — and I'd rather build with you than for you.

✦ The origin

One dial-up line,
a hand-me-down PC,
and five hundred taka.

I grew up in Nilphamari — a small town in northern Bangladesh that mostly shows up in maps when there's a flood. No startups, no incubators, no LinkedIn. Just a hand-me-down PC and a dial-up line that worked when it felt like it.

I built my first paid project at 15: a Bangla wedding-invitation site for a neighbor. Charged five hundred taka. And was hooked.

"In 2012 I formalized the work as NextBangla Ltd. Same person at the desk on day one — still here on day 5,000-something."

Over the next 14 years what started as a one-person shop became a 50+ person operation across Bangladesh and the UK. 20+ ventures. 500+ projects. 7 AI startups in active development.

⚡ Brand pillars · what you're hiring

Four reasons
this works differently.

Most agencies sell hours. I sell founder pattern-matching — and the receipts to back it up. These are the four pillars I'd put on a contract.
01
Pillar 01

Founder-to-Founder

I've sat in your chair. When I evaluate scope, pricing, or trade-offs — it's from someone who's shipped 20+ companies, not someone optimizing billable hours.

✦ Skin in the game
02
Pillar 02

Receipts, not promises

20+ ventures, 500+ projects, 7 AI startups in active development. The proof is in products you can use today — don't take my word for it, go try them.

★ Try the live builds
03
Pillar 03

AI-native operator

I'm building 7 AI startups right now — not learning AI on your project. When I integrate AI into your product, it's because I just shipped the same pattern in mine last week.

⚡ Patterns over pitches
04
Pillar 04

Honest about the journey

Joya, family, seven cats, ventures that didn't work. The story's in the open. You're hiring a person, not a logo — and the person matters.

💗 No glossy bio
🌍 Four cities, one family

NextBangla's journey:
Nilphamari → Rangpur → Dhaka → London.

Born in Nilphamari (where it began). Grew through Rangpur. Operations in Dhaka. Partner office in London. Same person owns the outcome from kickoff to delivery — me.

💗 The family behind the brand

She's not the team.
She's the reason
there is one.

The single biggest reason this brand sounds human. Meet Joya — managing director, co-founder, and the operational backbone of everything in this ecosystem.
Antor and Joya — Built from scratch, together
💖 Joya & Antor
❤️
built with love
"She doesn't just run NextBangla — she's the reason I get to build."

Joya is the Managing Director of NextBangla Ltd. and the operational backbone of every venture in this ecosystem. We met before NextBangla existed. While I'm dreaming up the next 21, she's making the current 20 actually run.

Strength, sacrifice, and leading with heart — when this brand says "Built from scratch, together," it isn't a tagline. It's literal.
