We build the software
your business runs on.
Senior UAE-based engineers who design, build and run custom software — web platforms, mobile apps and AI agents that pay for themselves — plus a trade arm that puts physical products on shelves across the GCC. One accountable partner, and you own everything we make.





Real, senior people you'll actually talk to.
Not just talent on loan — strategy, design, build and support under one roof, with a team you can meet in the UAE.
If you can sketch it on a napkin, we can ship it
A few of the things clients come to us for. Scoped in about a week, live in weeks — not quarters.
Client portals & booking
Let customers book, pay, track and manage themselves online — instead of phoning your team.
AI copilots & chat agents
Agents that answer customers, qualify leads and clear back-office work — around the clock, in Arabic and English.
Internal tools & dashboards
Retire the spreadsheets. Live numbers, approvals and workflows your team actually uses.
E-commerce & marketplaces
Storefronts and multi-vendor platforms wired into local payments, delivery and marketplaces.
Mobile apps
iOS and Android from a single codebase — launch fast without paying for two teams.
Rescue & modernisation
Inherited something slow, fragile or undocumented? We stabilise it, then rebuild it piece by piece.
Everything you need to ship — under one roof
Strategy, design, build and the team to run it. One UAE-based partner across the whole lifecycle, not talent on loan.
We don't just build commerce — we run it
Beyond software, Nomad operates a cross-border commerce arm. We connect quality suppliers with buyers and put products onto the shelves and marketplaces of the UAE and the wider Gulf.

A real team in the UAE you can meet — same timezone, same working week as your business.
Full delivery, not just talent
Strategy, design, build and support under one roof — we own the outcome, not just fill a seat.
Senior engineers only
Rigorously vetted people. The person who scopes your project is the one who builds it.
Fast to value

A friendly team behind every project
We're small, senior and easy to reach. You work directly with the people building your software — no call centres, no hand-offs, just a team that genuinely enjoys the work.
Say hello — book a free call


From idea to live in four steps
Discover
We map your goals, constraints and the numbers that matter — and tell you honestly if we're the right fit.
Plan
A lean scope with clear milestones, costs and expected return. No surprises.
Build
We ship in short cycles with you in the loop — demos every week, not at the end.
Support
Launch, then iterate. Dashboards and automation so you can plan the next move with data.

Modern, model-agnostic, production-ready
The stack we ship with today — chosen per project, never forced. Everything below runs in production for real clients, not just in demos.
We're a UAE-registered consultancy with a senior team based in the region. The engineers who join your scoping call are the same people who design and build your system — we don't sell you a senior face and then hand the work to an anonymous offshore bench. When a project needs a specialist we don't have (say, a niche embedded-systems skill), we tell you openly and bring one in under our supervision and our quality bar.
It depends on scope, but as honest reference points: a focused MVP or internal tool typically lands between AED 40,000–90,000; a full product or platform with integrations, admin and mobile is usually AED 100,000–300,000+; a dedicated senior squad runs monthly at a fixed rate. After the free scoping call you get a fixed, itemised quote broken into milestones — and we'll tell you plainly what we'd cut first if the number doesn't fit your budget.
UAE clients are invoiced in AED with VAT handled correctly; international clients in USD. Fixed-scope projects are split into milestones — typically a deposit to book the team, then payments tied to demos you've actually seen and approved, never to promises. Dedicated teams and retainers are billed monthly in advance. Every invoice is itemised; there are no surprise line items.
A free 30-minute discovery call usually happens within one business day, and a scoped plan lands within a week. From kick-off, a lean first version is typically live in 4–8 weeks, larger platforms in 3–6 months — but we ship something usable early and iterate, so you're never waiting a quarter to see working software.
Yes — completely and from day one. The repositories, cloud accounts and domains are created in your name, so you're never locked in or held hostage. The contract assigns all IP in the delivered work to you on payment, we sign an NDA before seeing anything sensitive, and if we ever part ways you keep everything, including documentation.
The toolkit above is what we ship with today: TypeScript/React and React Native or Flutter on the front, Node.js, Python or Go behind it, PostgreSQL as the default database, and AWS, Azure or GCP for infrastructure. On AI we're deliberately model-agnostic — Claude, GPT or Gemini per use case, wired in with proper evals and fallbacks. We bias toward boring, well-supported technology your future team can hire for, and we never pick a stack because it's fashionable.
We build to the UAE Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) by default: data minimisation, role-based access, audit trails and encryption in transit and at rest. If you need data residency, we deploy to in-region cloud (AWS UAE/Bahrain, Azure UAE) so data never leaves the Gulf. For government-adjacent work we align with NESA/IA expectations. Your production data is never used for testing or demos without written agreement.
You get a shared channel (Slack, Teams or WhatsApp — your choice) with the actual builders in it, a single senior point of contact, and a live demo every week from week one, on a staging environment you can click through yourself. You'll also see a short written update each week: what shipped, what's next, what's blocked and why. No black boxes, no 'trust us, it's 80% done'.
Small course-corrections are normal and absorbed into the sprint — software you can't steer isn't worth much. Anything that genuinely moves scope gets written up as a short change request with its cost and schedule impact before we build it, so you decide with full information. You'll never discover a scope change on an invoice.
Absolutely — roughly half our work is inside existing systems. We start with a short technical audit, embed in your repos, tickets and CI rather than forcing our own tooling, and match your conventions. For staff augmentation, our engineers join your standups and answer to your leads while we stay accountable for their quality.
Yes — it's some of our most common work. The sequence: a code and infrastructure audit with a frank written assessment, then stabilising what's fragile (backups, monitoring, security holes) before touching features, then incremental modernisation with zero-downtime releases. We almost never recommend a big-bang rewrite; they fail for predictable reasons, and we'll show you the cheaper path.
Every fixed-scope project includes 30 days of post-launch support for defects, free. After that, most clients pick a monthly care plan — monitoring, security patches, backups, small improvements, and a defined response time for incidents — or keep a dedicated team for ongoing product work. If you'd rather run it in-house, we hand over documentation, runbooks and a training session instead. There's no forced lock-in.
Yes — and properly, not as an afterthought. We design RTL-first layouts, handle Arabic typography, numerals and date formats correctly, and build content models so every screen exists in both languages. This site itself is fully bilingual. AI agents we ship can converse naturally in Gulf Arabic and English and switch mid-conversation.
Two directions. If you're a supplier or brand, we get your products selling in the Gulf: import, customs clearance, compliant Arabic labelling, VAT, then listing and fulfilment across Amazon.ae, Noon, retail and our own channels — you don't need a UAE entity to start. If you're a buyer or retailer, we source vetted, quality-checked stock at transparent AED pricing. Commercials are simple: an agreed margin or fee per channel, in writing, before anything ships.
Always. Work runs under a master services agreement governed by UAE law, with a statement of work per project covering scope, milestones, acceptance criteria and IP assignment. We're happy to sign your NDA before the first real conversation, or provide ours. For regulated clients we'll also complete your vendor onboarding and security questionnaires.
