Whetstonez · Serving Riyadh businesses
Turn a business requirement into a website, mobile app, or custom platform your team can use with confidence. Whetstonez provides software development for Riyadh businesses, from discovery and design to development and launch.
Based in Jeddah. Working with clients in Riyadh and across Saudi Arabia.
Choose the right starting point
Start with the problem you need to solve. We help define the essential features, identify dependencies, and choose an approach that fits your users and budget.
Business websites, customer portals, and web applications that explain your offer and make the next step clear. We plan responsive layouts, bilingual content, enquiry journeys, and the integrations your site needs.
Explore website development →Apps for customer services, bookings, internal workflows, or a new digital product. We map the user journey before choosing a native or cross-platform approach and defining the supporting backend.
Explore mobile app development →Replace disconnected spreadsheets and repetitive tasks with a system designed around your operations. Your scope can include dashboards, user roles, reporting, approvals, and integrations with existing tools.
Explore custom software →Designed for your context
A useful platform needs to fit the way people actually work. For a Riyadh business, that can mean Arabic and English interfaces, mobile-first customer journeys, and clear access for different teams or branches.
We discuss those requirements early. If your project needs payments, business-system integrations, hosting, or specific data-handling requirements, we include them in discovery so responsibilities and dependencies are clear.
Our office is in Jeddah. We support Riyadh projects through agreed communication channels, online planning sessions, design reviews, and development demonstrations.
A clear delivery process
Identify users, business goals, existing systems, and the features required for a useful first release.
Review the main screens and user journeys before committing them to development, including Arabic layouts where needed.
Develop the agreed scope, review progress, and test the important workflows across relevant devices and roles.
Prepare deployment, explain how to manage the system, and agree any ongoing maintenance or support separately.
Planning your investment
The right estimate depends on the work involved. A service website has a different scope from a mobile application connected to a customer portal and an administration dashboard.
Features, integrations, design requirements, content, data migration, and testing all affect cost and timing. We review your priorities and prepare a scope-based proposal rather than promise a fixed price before understanding the project.
An early idea is enough to start the discussion. We can help turn it into a clearer scope.
Common questions
Whetstonez is based in Jeddah and serves clients in Riyadh and across Saudi Arabia. Project planning and reviews can be coordinated remotely. This page describes our services for Riyadh businesses, not a Riyadh office.
Yes. We can scope these as parts of one connected platform, with a shared backend where appropriate. We first define the user roles, data flows, and integrations to avoid building disconnected tools.
Yes. Arabic and English interfaces can be included in the scope, with right-to-left layouts, language switching, and a plan for translated content. Tell us which languages are needed before design starts.
The schedule depends on features, integrations, content readiness, and review cycles. After discovery, we propose milestones and identify what is needed from your team at each stage.
We can review an existing product and discuss improvements, integrations, or a rebuild. Access to its current code, hosting, and documentation helps us assess what can be reused.
Maintenance and support depend on the agreed proposal. We clarify the handover, any included support period, and options for ongoing updates before work begins.
