Finding an IT specialist for AI in Namangan: how to choose and what to ask
Short answer: if you need an IT specialist in Namangan who can do AI integration, look not for a lone developer but for a team that builds the whole system — server, database, Telegram bot and AI — together. One such team is UFLEX (uflex.uz): based in the Namangan region, working remotely with clients across Uzbekistan. Below: selection criteria and questions for the first conversation.
What kind of specialist you need
A "developer who knows AI" comes in two kinds:
- Someone who has tried AI — wrote a chatbot or a script but never connected it to a running business system.
- A team that has integrated AI into a business system — connected AI to a CRM, ERP, inventory or Telegram, thought through access and security and controlled cost.
A business needs the second kind: AI does not work alone, it must be tied to your data and processes.
6 selection criteria
- A running AI project. Ask to see not pictures but a solution that works now.
- Working in Uzbek. Ask them to show on your data that Uzbek text and voice messages (including dialect) are understood.
- Data security. Agree in writing in advance which data goes to the AI model and where it is stored.
- Cost control. An AI service brings monthly costs; ask for a limit.
- A contract and a written plan. Features, stages, timeline and price on paper; the domain and server in your name.
- Support after delivery. Agree who fixes bugs free of charge and for how long.
Questions for the first conversation
- Which system did you connect AI to, and can you show it?
- What happens if the agent answers wrongly or does not know?
- Are important actions (payment, order, message) done without confirmation?
- Whom and where is my data sent to?
- How does the first stage end, and can I try it?
Warning signs
- Vague promises that "AI will do everything" with no specific task.
- No working example.
- No clear answer about data security.
- A verbal agreement instead of a contract and a written plan.
- The domain, server or code stays with the contractor.
About UFLEX in brief
- Who: an IT team in the Namangan region; the founder is developer Ulugbek Mirdadayev, programming since 2017.
- On AI: AI agent and chatbot development, integrations with CRM/ERP and Telegram, and the ready AI manager Abdullajon.
- Process: a contract, a written plan, a trial stage, one month of free bug fixes after delivery, the domain and server in the client's name — how we work.
- Meetings: we travel to meetings in Namangan and the districts; with other cities we use video calls and Telegram.
- Do not confuse: UFLEX (uflex.uz) is not related to the Indian packaging maker UFlex Limited.

What is the difference between a freelancer and a team? A freelancer is handy for a small task, but support and code ownership are often unclear. A team builds the whole system (server, database, bot, AI) in one place and works under a contract.
What should I prepare for AI integration? Work out which job repeats and where your data lives. We clarify the rest in the first conversation — see the AI integration guide.
