We've built software for UAE logistics, fintech, real estate and government-adjacent clients. We understand VAT logic, Arabic RTL interfaces, and UAE data residency requirements.
End-to-end, not just coding

Validate my AI ideaA 200-vehicle fleet, live in 12 weeks.
A Middle East logistics group ran 200+ vehicles across three countries and roughly 3,000 delivery orders a day — on phone calls and paper. We ran a two-week discovery sprint (the first week on-site in Dubai) and shipped an MVP in 12 weeks: a React dispatch dashboard with a live vehicle map, a driver mobile app, and route optimisation. The result was a 22% cut in fuel costs.

- Meet in Dubai. Our Dubai Silicon Oasis office means kickoff workshops and reviews can happen in person, in region.
- AED or USD, TRN-compliant. We raise VAT-compliant invoices in either currency, so procurement and finance stay clear on input VAT.
- India engineering delivery. Founder-reviewed pods from our Coimbatore hub — cost efficiency without a quality compromise.
- Time zones that overlap. GST and IST share most of the working day, so daily standups and same-day answers are the norm.
- NDA first. We sign an NDA before discussing any project specifics.

Frequently asked questions
Do you work with companies outside the UAE?
Yes. From Dubai we serve UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman and wider MENA. We also use our Dubai office as a gateway for European companies with GCC operations.
Is your company registered in the UAE?
We operate from Dubai Digital Park, Dubai Silicon Oasis — one of the UAE's premier free zone tech hubs. We can raise invoices in both USD and AED and accept wire transfers to UAE and international accounts.
Do you have experience with UAE government or regulated-sector projects?
We're set up to deliver under UAE Central Bank and DIFC regulatory frameworks — our compliance posture (SOC 2-aligned, in-region cloud deployment, audit logging, IP assignment) is ready for regulated UAE engagements. We sign NDAs before discussing project specifics and our team understands UAE data residency requirements.
What languages do you deliver work in?
All documentation, code comments and client communication are in English. We can arrange Arabic-language user interfaces, documentation and deliverables on request.
How do billing and contracts work for UAE clients?
We issue contracts governed under UAE law when preferred, accept payment in AED or USD, and provide VAT-compliant invoices. Most GCC clients work on monthly retainers (staff augmentation) or milestone-based payments (fixed-scope projects).
Can we meet in person?
Yes. Our office is at Building A1, Dubai Digital Park, Dubai Silicon Oasis, so in-region kickoff meetings, workshops and reviews are available in Dubai. For our fleet management engagement, our solution architect spent the first week on-site with the client's operations team in Dubai.
How do you handle VAT on software invoices?
We provide TRN-compliant, VAT-compliant invoices and can bill in AED or USD depending on your preference. This keeps your finance and procurement teams clear on input VAT treatment for the engagement.
What types of projects do you work on for UAE clients?
Custom software builds, AI applications (copilots, document intelligence, automation), dedicated engineering pods, and industry platforms such as healthcare systems and logistics/fleet management ERP. See our Middle East fleet management ERP build for a representative example.
