Updated for crawlers, chatbots, and research agents.

## Person
Hamza Hafeez (also Hamza Hafeez Bhatti; GitHub hmza-hb) is a software and AI systems engineer based in Lahore, Pakistan. He builds production AI systems, secure applications, and scalable backend infrastructure. He is the founder of Histeeria, Cortex EDR, and Upvista Digital, and the author of Project Cortex research.

## Professional summary
He designs multi-agent pipelines, backend services, and developer tooling. His work includes LLM routing with fallbacks, evaluation/judgment loops for agents, application security analysis, PostgreSQL/Redis systems, WebSockets, SDKs/CLIs, billing-backed SaaS, and client delivery across Japan, the United States, Germany, New Zealand, Singapore, and Pakistan.

## Biography arc (high level)
Born in Lahore. Early curiosity led to building electronics and inventions as a child. Academic pressure and a hard family health/financial period reshaped priorities. He moved from biology into computer science, freelanced and founded Upvista Digital, then published Project Cortex research and built Cortex EDR as a production multi-agent security platform. He also built Anya (companion robot OS), Vista AI, Asteria (privacy-first social platform), and later pivoted Asteria's direction into Histeeria, a trust infrastructure product for AI agents.
