Data sovereignty risk
Uploading contracts, invoices, and client data to US or EU clouds creates legal and security exposure for Qatari businesses.
🇶🇦 Built for Qatar businesses
AI that actually
works for you
— not the cloud
974 Digital builds practical, private AI tools for Qatari SMEs. No subscriptions to big platforms. No sending sensitive data overseas. Just smart software that runs on your machine and saves you hours every week.
Big AI platforms aren't
built for businesses like yours
Most off-the-shelf AI tools are expensive, send your data to foreign servers, and require an IT team to manage. We fix all of that.
Expensive subscriptions
Enterprise AI platforms charge thousands per month — often for features you'll never use. SMEs get the worst deal.
One-size-fits-none
Generic tools don't understand your industry, your Arabic documents, or your specific business processes.
Skills gap
Setting up AI requires technical expertise most SMEs don't have in-house — and can't afford to hire.
From problem to working AI
in four steps
We do the heavy lifting. You describe what's slowing you down — we come back with a working tool.
-
Discovery call
30 minutes understanding your workflow, data, and pain points. Free, no commitment.
-
Scoping & proposal
We map out a bespoke AI tool — what it does, how it runs, what it costs. Fixed price, no surprises.
-
Build & test
Our team builds and tests your tool over two weeks. You review before we hand it over.
-
Deploy & support
We install it on your machines and train your team. Support included for 90 days.
Real problems.
Real AI solutions.
Every tool we build solves a specific, real problem for a Qatari SME. Here are six examples.
Document Processing
PDF Unlock & Organiser
A law firm received hundreds of password-protected PDFs each week. Staff spent hours manually unlocking each one. Our tool monitors a watch folder, unlocks every PDF using stored credentials, and outputs clean files — all on the firm's own server. Zero files leave the building.
Saved 14 hours per week, zero external data exposure
Invoice Automation
Arabic Invoice Reader
A trading company received bilingual invoices from 50+ suppliers. Manual data entry took a full-time employee two days per week. Our AI reads scanned invoices in Arabic and English, extracts line items and totals, and pre-fills their accounting software — all offline.
Invoice processing reduced from 2 days to 45 minutes
Customer Service
WhatsApp Enquiry Triage
A real-estate agency was overwhelmed with Arabic and English WhatsApp messages. Agents spent 3 hours a day just sorting and routing. Our AI classifies intent, drafts a suggested reply in the correct language, and routes to the right agent — within their existing WhatsApp Business setup.
Response time cut from 4 hours to under 8 minutes
Compliance
Staff Timesheet Checker
A construction contractor needed to verify daily timesheets from 120 workers against site gate logs. Manual checking took two admin staff three days per month. Our AI cross-references scanned timesheets with digital logs, highlights anomalies, and produces a clean payroll-ready report.
99.6% payroll accuracy — 3-day task now takes 20 minutes
Operations
Inventory Reorder Assistant
A food & beverage distributor constantly ran out of fast movers or over-ordered slow ones. Their stock data lived in a local spreadsheet. Our AI reads it daily, analyses consumption trends, factors in lead times, and sends a WhatsApp message each morning listing exactly what to order.
Stockouts down 78% — over-ordering cut by QAR 35,000/month
HR & Recruitment
CV Screener & Ranker
An HR consultancy received 200+ CVs per job posting in Arabic and English. Screening took a recruiter two full days. Our tool reads every CV, scores candidates against a job description, flags missing visa requirements, and delivers a ranked shortlist with summaries. Runs on the recruiter's laptop.
Screening time reduced from 2 days to 90 minutes per role
We're not a big firm.
That's the point.
Your data never leaves Qatar
Every tool we build runs on your hardware or your local network. On-premise AI models where possible — no calls to OpenAI, no uploads to AWS. Full compliance with Qatar's data protection framework.
Built for your exact workflow
We don't sell you a platform. We build one tool that does your specific job — knowing your document formats, naming conventions, and Arabic dialects.
Fast and fixed-price
Most tools are live in two weeks. We scope, agree a fixed price, and deliver. No ongoing subscription — you own what we build.
Qatar Vision 2030 aligned
We help Qatari SMEs compete through technology — supporting national digital transformation goals without sending economic value overseas.

Questions we always get
Does my data go to any cloud service?
No. All our tools run locally on your hardware or within your office network. We use on-premise AI models by default. If a cloud component is ever needed, we tell you explicitly and proceed only with your written consent.
Do you work with Arabic documents?
Yes — this is one of our core strengths. We work with Arabic PDFs, invoices, timesheets, contracts, and messages. Our tools handle right-to-left text, mixed Arabic/English documents, and common Qatari document formats.
What does it actually cost?
Most single-task tools cost between QAR 8,000 and QAR 25,000 as a one-off project. You own the tool outright. There's no monthly fee unless you want an ongoing support contract.
How long does it take?
For a clearly-scoped single-task tool, we typically deliver within 10–14 business days. More complex projects take 4–6 weeks. We agree the timeline before we start.
What if I don't know what AI can do for me?
That's exactly who we're for. Book a free call and describe your day-to-day headaches. We'll identify which ones AI can solve, which it can't, and give you an honest recommendation.
Do I need any technical staff?
No. We build the tool, install it, and train whoever needs to use it. We make every tool as simple as a folder and a button. Your team needs to understand the result — not the AI behind it.
