What we build
Software for Hajj, Umrah and hospitality

Group and pilgrim management
Track groups, guides, documents and itineraries in one dashboard, with live status for every pilgrim.
Hotel and room allocation
Room inventory, allocations and check-in workflows for hotels and serviced apartments near the Haram.
Transport and logistics scheduling
Bus schedules, driver assignments and movement plans between airports, hotels and holy sites.
Multilingual guest apps
Mobile apps that give pilgrims their schedule, hotel details, announcements and support in their own language.
Operations dashboards and reports
Live views of capacity, bookings and service issues, so managers can act before a peak becomes a problem.

Software in Makkah and Madinah: common questions
Do you work with companies in Makkah and Madinah?
Yes. Our head office is in Jeddah, about an hour from Makkah, so we can run on-site workshops in Makkah and Madinah and support you remotely and in person.
Can you build a booking system for Umrah packages?
Yes. We build booking platforms for Umrah and Hajj service providers, covering packages, payments, group management, hotel allocation and transport, in Arabic, English and other languages your pilgrims speak.
Can the system handle Ramadan and Hajj peaks?
Yes. We design the architecture and cloud hosting for peak traffic and test it under load before the season, so bookings and apps stay fast when demand is highest.
Do you build apps in languages other than Arabic and English?
Yes. Arabic and English are standard, and we can add languages such as Urdu, Indonesian, Turkish, Malay and French for international guests.
How much does a booking or operations system cost?
It depends on scope, integrations and platforms. Our projects start from about SAR 15,000 for focused tools, and we give you a fixed scope and price after a discovery session. See our app development cost guide.
