Dubai & the GCC

AI, data and dashboards, built in your region.

We build AI features, data pipelines and BI dashboards for organizations across the UAE and the wider Gulf, delivered on the AWS Middle East (UAE) region, me-central-1, and on me-south-1 in Bahrain when in-region residency is part of the requirement. Everything runs inside your own AWS accounts. The UAE sits 1.5 hours behind Indian time, so our working day runs almost in parallel with yours and reviews happen on a call rather than by overnight ticket.

What We Deliver

Three pieces of work, scoped for the Gulf.

Most engagements here start with one of these and grow into another, because a dashboard is only as good as the data behind it and AI is only as good as both. This is the Dubai and GCC view of our AI, data and visualization service.

01 · AI

AI that earns its place

GenAI and large language models built into the products and workflows your teams already run: retrieval over your own documents so answers cite your content instead of guessing, summarisation and extraction where people currently read and retype, and natural-language querying over data that is already in the business. Traditional machine learning where the problem genuinely calls for a model rather than a rule. Where a simpler answer would serve you better, our team will say so before you spend on the impressive one.

02 · DATA

Pipelines that make the numbers agree

Ingestion and transformation that runs reliably and on schedule, warehouse and lakehouse design so the data lands somewhere queryable, and the unglamorous data-quality work that decides whether anyone in the room believes the output. Group structures in the Gulf tend to spread the same customer across several entities and several systems, and two systems disagreeing about that customer is a data problem rather than a chart problem. It gets fixed at the source, in your accounts, in the region you nominate.

03 · BI

Dashboards and reporting for GCC organizations

Reporting built in Power BI, Tableau or Amazon QuickSight, chosen on where your data already lives and what your team already uses rather than on what we prefer to build. Self-serve analytics so operations, finance and leadership can answer their own questions instead of queuing for a report, and executive reporting that says what changed and why rather than showing everything at once. A dashboard nobody opens after week two was a scoping problem, not a reporting problem, so we scope it with the people who will actually use it.

Regions & Working Hours

Where the data sits, and when we are both awake.

Delivery is remote, so the two questions worth asking are where your workloads run and how much of the day we genuinely share. Both have plain answers.

Region

In-region on AWS

  • AWS Middle East (UAE), me-central-1. The in-country option when data needs to stay in the UAE. Storage, processing and reporting all sit in the same region.
  • AWS Middle East (Bahrain), me-south-1. The other in-region choice, useful when a workload or a group entity is better placed there.
  • Your accounts, not ours. We build inside your AWS organization. Nothing is copied into an environment you cannot see or audit.
  • Residency is your decision. Tell us the constraint and it shapes the pipeline, the storage layer and the BI connection from the start rather than being bolted on late.
  • Region choice is a design input. Not every service is available everywhere, so the region you pick changes the architecture, and we scope with that in front of us.
Working hours

A day that runs in parallel

  • 1.5 hours, that is the whole gap. The UAE is 1.5 hours behind Indian time, so the two working days sit almost on top of each other.
  • Live, not queued. Standups, design reviews and demos happen on a call while both sides are working, instead of turning into overnight tickets.
  • Questions get answered the same hour. Most delays on a data project come from a question that needs five minutes of conversation, and that conversation is available all day here.
  • No round-the-clock claims. We work normal hours. The overlap is what makes this work, not a rota we do not run.
  • No local office. Delivery is remote. We would rather tell you that than imply a presence in the region that does not exist.

Your chosen region, your own accounts, and a working day that lines up with yours. That is the entire regional story, and we would rather state it plainly than dress it up.

How Engagements Run

Scope it, build it, hand it over.

Three steps, no open-ended retainer required, and no dependency on us at the end unless you want one.

Step 1

Free scoping call

A call, at a time inside both working days, to understand the data you hold, the decisions you want to make with it, any residency constraint that applies, and what is actually in the way. We come back with a fixed scope and a written quote. If the honest answer is a smaller piece of work, that is what gets quoted.

Book a scoping call
Step 2

Fixed-scope build

The work runs to the agreed scope, inside your own AWS accounts and in the region you nominated, whether that is me-central-1, me-south-1 or somewhere else entirely. You see progress as it lands rather than waiting for a reveal, and a scope change is a conversation with a number attached, not a surprise on the invoice.

Step 3

Documented handover

You get the build, the documentation and a handover session with the people who will run it day to day. Everything lives in your environment, so nothing sits in a black box only we can open. Ongoing support is a separate conversation if you want one, not something baked in to make the handover awkward.

Ask a question first
Common Questions

What GCC buyers ask first.

Residency and working hours come up on almost every call here, so they are answered plainly below. If your question is not on the list, ask it on the call.

The wider service overview, including the AWS components we reach for, sits on the AI, data and visualization page. If your team sits in another market, there are equivalent pages for the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia.

Can you keep our data in the UAE?+
That is an architecture decision, and it is yours to make. The AWS Middle East (UAE) region, me-central-1, lets us keep storage, processing and reporting inside the country, and me-south-1 in Bahrain is the other in-region option when a workload needs it. We build inside your own AWS accounts rather than pulling your data into ours, so the region you pick is the region it stays in, and you can see that in your own console. If in-country residency is a requirement, tell us on the scoping call and it shapes the pipeline and storage design from the first day rather than being retrofitted later.
How does the working week align?+
The practical difference is hours, not days. The UAE is 1.5 hours behind Indian time, so our working day runs almost in parallel with yours. Standups, design reviews and demos happen live, on a call, instead of arriving as an overnight ticket you read the next morning. We do not claim round-the-clock cover and we are not going to pretend otherwise: what you get is a near-identical working day, which for a data project is worth more than a support badge, because most of the delays in reporting work come from questions that need a five minute conversation.
Do you work with our existing data warehouse?+
Yes. Most engagements begin with data that already lives somewhere: a warehouse, a lake, several operational databases, or all of those plus the spreadsheets nobody admits to. We build on what you have rather than insisting on a rebuild, and we tell you plainly when part of the existing setup is going to keep causing trouble. Replacing a warehouse is an expensive decision, so it should be a deliberate choice you make with the numbers in front of you, not a side effect of hiring us.
Which BI tools do you work with?+
Power BI, Tableau and Amazon QuickSight. Which one suits you depends on where your data already sits, what your team already knows, and what your licensing looks like, not on what we would prefer to build. If you are already invested in one of them, we work in it. If you are choosing from scratch, we will walk you through the trade-offs on the call, including the ones that count against the option that would be easiest for us.
Do you have an office in Dubai?+
No. We do not run a local office in Dubai or anywhere else in the Gulf, and we would rather say so than imply a presence we do not have. Delivery is remote. What makes that workable here is the 1.5 hour offset: the working day is close enough to parallel that you get live calls, live reviews and live demos rather than asynchronous handoffs. Your workloads still run in the AWS region you choose, inside your own accounts, whether or not anyone is sitting in the same city.
What does an engagement cost?+
Every engagement is quoted individually, because one dashboard and a full data platform are not the same job. There is no published price list and no standard package. Start with a free scoping call: we look at the data you have, the decisions you want to make with it, and what is actually in the way, then come back with a fixed scope and a fixed quote before any work begins. If the honest answer is a smaller piece of work, that is what we quote for.
Start with a conversation

Book a free scoping call. Fixed scope, fixed quote.

Bring the data you have, the decision you are trying to make, and any requirement to keep it in region. We will tell you what is realistic, what it would take and what it would cost, before you commit to anything. The call fits inside both working days, because there is only 1.5 hours between them.
