TRUSTED BY FOUNDERS

Chosen by Founders Who Ship,/Scale,/Operate

Partnering with early-stage and scaling startups to build systems that define the next generation of industry leaders.

Built for the Capital

Custom Software for Abu Dhabi Organisations

Abu Dhabi's economy is not a copy of Dubai's. Regulated finance in ADGM, heavy industry in KEZAD and Al Dhafra, a large government and semi-government sector, and a startup ecosystem anchored by Hub71 each place different demands on the software underneath them.

ADGM & Regulated Entities

Systems for ADGM-registered firms where audit trails, role-based access and records retention have to hold up under regulator scrutiny — designed in at architecture, documented for your compliance team.

KEZAD & Industrial Operations

Warehouse and yard management, gate passes, fleet tracking and maintenance scheduling for Khalifa Economic Zones and Al Dhafra industrial operators — integrated with the ERP you already run.

Government-Linked Organisations

Internal portals, case management and reporting systems for semi-government bodies and their contractors, built bilingual from day one with the reporting exports auditors actually ask for.

Hub71 & Abu Dhabi Startups

Investor-grade codebases built on a fixed budget — clean architecture that survives technical due diligence, with 100% IP ownership and no equity taken.

Professional Services & Trading

Bespoke CRMs, quotation and approval workflows, and client portals for Abu Dhabi consultancies, law firms and trading businesses running on spreadsheets that have outgrown themselves.

Energy & Supply Chain

Contractor management, HSE reporting, inspection logging and supply-chain visibility tools for businesses in Abu Dhabi's energy and heavy-industry supply chains.

Why Abu Dhabi Businesses Choose Control Shift

Judge a software partner on things you can verify before signing: what the price is, where the data lives, who owns the code, and whether they will say no to a bad-fit project.

Published Fixed Pricing

AED 40,000–400,000 bands published on this page, then fixed in writing after scoping — while most Abu Dhabi competitors start at AED 146,000 or hide numbers behind a sales call.

UAE Data Residency

UAE-region cloud, your own tenancy, or on-premise — decided before development starts and documented, for organisations with residency or PDPL obligations.

Arabic & English, Properly

Full RTL layouts and bilingual data entry designed in from day one — a requirement for most public-facing Abu Dhabi systems, not an afterthought.

100% Code Ownership

Source code, documentation, repositories and infrastructure accounts transferred at completion. No licence fees, no lock-in, maintainable by any team.

A Software Development Company That Works the Way Abu Dhabi Does

Most software projects in the capital fail for the same two reasons: the scope was never fixed in writing, and nobody agreed up front where the data would live. We deal with both before a line of code is written. You get published price bands, a fixed written quote after scoping, and a documented decision on hosting — UAE-region cloud, your own tenancy, or on-premise — rather than discovering the answer during a compliance review.

Being Dubai-based is a practical advantage rather than a caveat: Abu Dhabi is roughly a 75-minute drive, so discovery workshops in the city or Al Ain are routine, and you still get a senior engineering team rather than an account manager relaying messages offshore. Pricing is identical to our Dubai rate card — there is no capital surcharge.

If the system you need is closer to a packaged product, start with custom ERP development or custom CRM development. Need it on phones as well?

FAQ

Custom Software Development in Abu Dhabi — FAQs

The same transparent bands we quote in Dubai apply in Abu Dhabi: workflow automation and internal tools AED 40,000–90,000, custom platforms and client portals AED 90,000–200,000, and enterprise systems or SaaS builds AED 200,000–400,000. Many Abu Dhabi agencies quote from AED 146,000 upward or hide pricing behind a sales call — ours is published, and your figure is fixed in writing after a free scoping session.

Yes. Software for ADGM-registered firms usually carries obligations the Dubai mainland equivalent does not — audit trails, role-based access, records retention and data-handling rules that must survive a regulator or auditor asking questions. We build those in from architecture rather than bolting them on, and we document the controls so your compliance team has something to point at.

Where a documented API or integration route exists, yes — we have built systems that exchange data with government and semi-government platforms. Access to TAMM services is granted by the relevant authority rather than by us, so the practical path is: you hold the entity relationship and permissions, we handle the technical integration, error handling and reconciliation once access is approved.

Yes — Khalifa Economic Zones Abu Dhabi (KEZAD) operators and Al Dhafra industrial businesses typically need warehouse and yard management, fleet and gate-pass tracking, maintenance scheduling, and integration with existing ERP or accounting systems. These are exactly the workflow-heavy builds our AED 40,000–200,000 bands cover.

Your choice, and we scope it before development starts. Options include UAE-region cloud (AWS me-central-1 in the UAE or Azure UAE regions), your own tenancy, or on-premise where a policy requires it. For organisations with data-residency obligations or UAE PDPL considerations, we default to keeping data in-country and document exactly what is stored where.

Our engineering team is based in Dubai and we work with Abu Dhabi clients continuously — roughly a 75-minute drive, so on-site workshops in Abu Dhabi and Al Ain are routine, not an exception. Discovery and sprint reviews happen wherever you prefer: your office, ours, or over video. Pricing is identical either way; there is no Abu Dhabi surcharge.

Yes — full right-to-left layouts, Arabic typography that does not break, and bilingual data entry designed in from day one. For Abu Dhabi organisations serving government or public-facing users, a proper Arabic interface is usually a requirement rather than a nice-to-have.

Yes. Startups in the Hub71 ecosystem usually need to move fast on a fixed budget while keeping the codebase clean enough to survive investor technical due diligence. That is our default way of working: fixed scope, weekly demos, and 100% code and IP ownership handed to you — no equity, no lock-in.

Off-the-shelf wins when your process is genuinely standard and the licence cost stays reasonable as you grow. Custom wins when the software has to match a process that is your competitive advantage, when per-seat licensing is scaling faster than your headcount, or when you are running the business on spreadsheets that break. We will tell you honestly if an off-the-shelf product fits — turning down a bad-fit project is cheaper for both of us than building the wrong thing.

100% — source code, documentation, repositories and infrastructure accounts are transferred to you at completion. No licence fees, no vendor lock-in, and you can maintain or extend the system with any team you choose.
