The why of choosing "5am Systems" has a unique backstory, but it may not be as strange as other names you might have heard. The word "5am" is intriguing, but to explain simply, the number 5 is used to represent the letter S because they look alike. With the S, followed by the letters A and M, it forms the acronym SAM, which stands for the creator's full name, Shaheer Ahmed Masroor. "Systems" simply refers to a set of practices the company follows, specifically ones that focus on innovation and technology.

Another motive "5am" is that it represents the time in the morning when I wake up for work and finds myself most productive. The belief is that a productive morning routine leads to a productive outcome, which is reflected in the company's motto "Committed, from 5am until the dawn of your bliss."
