๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ช Sentriqa Dubai

Dubai is executing on AI. We're the team that ships it.

Agentic AI, fintech and proptech app development for UAE enterprises, government-adjacent programs and startups โ€” delivered by a local Sentriqa team backed by our engineering studios across four cities, at fixed prices Dubai agencies can’t match.

Why Dubai, why now

The demand wave is already here.

Dubai's D33 agenda targets AED 100 billion a year from the digital economy โ€” and the mandates are execution-grade, not aspirational.

Government mandate

Agentic AI in 50% of services

The UAE has committed to deploying agentic AI across half of government sectors and services within two years โ€” and every Dubai digital service unified within one. Execution capacity is the bottleneck.

AI services market

~28% CAGR to 2032

UAE AI integration & implementation services are forecast to grow from US$157M to US$687M by 2032. Demand has shifted from planning to deployment.

The talent gap

Demand > local supply

Strong local engineers are scarce and expensive, and app-only shops without AI depth are falling behind. AI-native delivery is the 2026 differentiator โ€” it's what we do.

What we deliver in the UAE

Three specialties, built for this market.

Specialty 01

AI implementation & agentic AI

Readiness assessments aligned to the Dubai Universal Blueprint for AI, agentic workflow builds, integration and governance โ€” for enterprises and government-adjacent programs that need pilots turned into production.

Specialty 02

Fintech apps

Embedded finance, payments, BNPL, digital assets and AI wealth platforms. Dubai holds ~60% of the UAE fintech market and DIFC added 775 new companies in Q1 2026 alone โ€” we build for the companies driving it.

Specialty 03

Proptech

Off-plan/presales platforms, property management and smart-building apps for a UAE proptech sector growing 17.5% a year toward AED 5.69B by 2030 โ€” backed by the new Dubai PropTech Hub.

Specialty 04

Data readiness & document-to-data

We convert the documents your business runs on โ€” contracts, invoices, applications, reports โ€” into clean structured data, integrate it with your systems, and layer AI over your data and documents. The foundation every AI mandate depends on.

Who we build for

The UAE clients we're built to serve.

Financial services

Banks, fintechs & DIFC firms

Embedded finance features, digital onboarding, AI wealth tools and compliance-aware assistants โ€” built for institutions and the fintechs challenging them.

Government-adjacent

AI mandate delivery partners

Consultancies and primes holding AI transformation mandates who need proven build capacity โ€” we deliver the agentic systems behind your program, white-label if needed.

Real estate

Developers & property groups

Off-plan sales platforms, buyer portals, snagging and handover apps, and building operations โ€” for the developers shaping the Dubai skyline.

Free-zone startups

Founders building from Dubai

Fixed-price MVPs for DIFC, DMCC and Dubai Internet City founders โ€” investor-ready builds with the AI depth your pitch promises.

Mid-market

Trading, retail & logistics

The businesses that keep Dubai moving โ€” AI-powered operations, customer apps and the document-to-data foundations that make AI actually work.

Healthcare

Clinics & medical tourism

Booking, intake and triage experiences for a healthcare market heading past US$22B by 2030 โ€” see CareLoop and Triagely in our concept work.

Funding & programs

UAE funding we help you access.

Much of the UAE's startup support is equity-free โ€” and most programs fund execution credibility. We build the prototype, technical documentation and AI roadmap that make your application fundable.

Up to AED 2M

MBRIF

Interest-free innovation financing, a no-equity accelerator and a government loan-guarantee scheme for tech, health, clean energy and sustainability ventures.

Fintech

DIFC FinTech Hive

The region's defining fintech accelerator โ€” bank mentorship, pilot pathways and the DFSA Innovation Testing Licence for regulated experiments.

Equity-free

Hub71 & in5

Equity-free incentive packages and incubation across the UAE's two biggest tech ecosystems โ€” plus Dubai SME and Khalifa Fund support of up to AED 1โ€“3M.

We ship, hand over governance documentation your auditors will actually accept, and either transition cleanly or keep building on retainer.

Common questions

What UAE clients ask us first.

Do you have a presence in Dubai?

Yes. Sentriqa is establishing its UAE base within the DIFC ecosystem, with a local team for discovery, scoping and delivery reviews — all on Gulf hours.

Can you work with government-linked programs?

Yes โ€” typically alongside local partners. Our sweet spot is execution: turning approved AI initiatives into deployed, governed, production systems.

How do you price against Dubai agencies?

Local builds commonly run AED 30kโ€“500k+ with scarce senior talent. Our model delivers senior-led, AI-native builds at fixed prices โ€” usually well under local equivalents.

Which sectors do you know best?

Fintech, proptech, health and logistics โ€” see our concept builds on the Work page, including fintech and off-plan property platforms directly relevant to the UAE.

Where does our data live?

Wherever your compliance requires. We architect for UAE data-residency requirements from day one โ€” regional cloud hosting, clear data-flow maps and governance documentation included.

Can you build bilingual Arabic/English products?

Yes โ€” full RTL support and Arabic localisation are scoped in from the start, not retrofitted. Every customer-facing build we quote for the UAE includes it as an option.

Building in the UAE? Let's scope it.

A 30-minute call is enough for us to scope your build or AI initiative and give you a fixed-price range in AED.
