Founder of Bithrah Tech
Bithrah Tech started in Riyadh on one idea: a company is known by what it ships, not by what it promises. Under that name, Candles reached the App Store in June 2026. NiHao was built for its community and can be opened in the browser.
Alongside Bithrah’s own products, he builds operating systems that run inside client businesses under their own names: the service quality system at King Abdullah Financial District and the online store migration system for Athar Ads.
The work is Arabic-first, and ships in three languages when the product calls for it.
