Discovery sprint
Two weeks, fixed fee: scope, screen map, integration list, estimate and a prototype you can show. Yours to keep even if you build elsewhere.

SaaS Platforms
Software that belongs to you: a platform built around how your business actually runs, with AI inside it rather than bolted on. From a first working version in weeks to a product your customers pay for.
The problem we solve
What this is
Most companies reach a point where the spreadsheet, the WhatsApp group and the off-the-shelf tool stop fitting. The work is specific; the software is generic. Everything takes three steps longer than it should and nobody trusts the numbers.
We build the platform that fits: the dashboard your managers open first thing, the portal your clients log into, the internal tool that removes the manual step, or the product you intend to sell. AI is designed in from the start, so the system drafts, summarises, forecasts and answers rather than only storing records.
Typical result: a launch-ready product in weeks, built to scale.
Fit
Who this is for
A good fit if
- Companies running the business on spreadsheets that three people edit and nobody trusts.
- Teams paying for software that fits eighty per cent of the work and blocks the rest.
- Founders with a product idea who need a first version real users can log into.
- Operators who need one screen instead of six vendor portals and a nightly export.
- Businesses that want to license their internal tool to others in their industry.
Probably not yet if
- An existing product already does the job and only your process needs fixing.
- Nobody internally can own decisions about scope for the length of the build.
- The requirement changes every week because the business model is still moving.
If one of these is true we will say so in the first call, and tell you what to fix first.
Engagement
How we can work together
Fixed-scope build
A defined first version with milestones, two-week demos, a staging link and a written handover.
Product partnership
A monthly team for products that keep growing: roadmap, releases, support and cloud cost management.
Every engagement starts with a free consultation and a written proposal. Scope, price and the measure of success are agreed before any work begins.
Deliverables
What you get
A product definition you can defend
Users, jobs to be done, the three screens that matter, and what is deliberately left out of version one.
Design before code
Clickable screens in Arabic and English, reviewed with real users, so you change your mind on a prototype and not on a build.
A working platform
Web and mobile-ready, multi-user with roles and permissions, bilingual and RTL-correct from the first line of code.
AI features that earn their place
Natural-language search, automatic summaries, document extraction, forecasting, and an assistant that knows your data.
The parts nobody demos
Authentication, audit logs, backups, error monitoring, rate limits, and a staging environment to test on.
Ownership and handover
Your code, your cloud account, documentation and a walkthrough for whoever maintains it next, including us.
Process
How it works
- 01
Discovery — 1 to 2 weeks
Workshops with the people who will use it. We leave with a scope, a screen map, the integrations list and an honest estimate.
- 02
Design — 2 to 3 weeks
Interface design and a clickable prototype you can put in front of a real user before anything is built.
- 03
Build — 4 to 12 weeks
Two-week sprints, a demo at the end of each one, and a staging link that is always current. You watch it take shape.
- 04
Launch
Migration of existing data, training for your team, monitoring switched on, and a quiet first week with us watching.
- 05
Run and grow
A support agreement, a monthly roadmap review, and new features shipped in small, safe releases.
Use cases
Where it fits
- An investor or client portal: documents, statements, approvals and a chat assistant that answers from the file.
- An operations dashboard that pulls from several systems and tells you what needs attention today.
- A marketplace or booking platform with payments, roles, notifications and an Arabic interface.
- An internal tool that replaces the spreadsheet everyone edits and nobody trusts.
- A vertical SaaS product you license to others in your industry.
What we build it with
- React, Next.js and TypeScript on the front end
- Node.js, Python, Laravel or WordPress where it fits
- PostgreSQL, MySQL and vector databases for AI search
- AWS, Google Cloud, Azure or UAE-hosted infrastructure
- Stripe, Ziina, Telr and regional payment gateways
- CI/CD, automated tests and error monitoring from day one
What we need from you
- One decision-maker who can approve scope
- Access to the people who do the work today
- Any existing data, in whatever state it is in
- A realistic first scope: one painful problem solved completely
Accountability
What we measure
We agree the numbers before the work starts and report against them afterwards. These are the measures that usually matter for this service.
- Time from request to a working, usable first version
- Hours of manual work removed each week
- Weekly active users inside your own team
- Errors and support tickets per hundred transactions
- Infrastructure and AI cost per user per month
- Uptime and the time it takes to recover from a failure
Experience
Mistakes we help you avoid
- Building version three firstSolve one painful problem completely. Features nobody has asked for are the most expensive thing in software.
- Treating Arabic as a translation jobRight-to-left layout, sorting, dates and numerals have to be in the design from the first screen, not retrofitted.
- Skipping the boring partsAuthentication, backups, audit logs and monitoring are what separate a demo from a system you can run a business on.
- Owning nothing at the endIf the code and the cloud account are not in your name, you have rented your own business process.
FAQ
Questions, answered.
How long until we see something real?
A clickable prototype in two to three weeks, and a usable first version normally between six and twelve weeks, depending on integrations.
Do we own the code?
Yes. The repository and the cloud accounts are yours, and we hand over documentation so another team could take it on.
Can you take over an existing system?
Often yes. We start with a short technical review that tells you honestly whether it is better to continue it, extend it or replace it.
What does it cost to run?
Hosting for a typical internal platform is modest; AI usage is the variable. We show you the per-user and per-request cost before you commit to a design.
