TLDR; Building search platform for parts.

After I got my Masters degree in CS in 2012, I started working as a solo-developer on my personal projects. I founded AKM Services without any funding as a simple web search-service to help people find parts for their cars and trucks and get the best prices for them. After 4.5 years of hard work, I was able to grow the company into a stable, successful business and sell it.
