Blink22

Blink22 is a custom software development company headquartered in ParkLane Tower, Business Bay, Dubai. It was founded in 2015 and is led by its co-founders Moustafa Samir, the chief executive, and Ayman Mahgoub, the chief operating officer. The company lists further offices in London, Singapore and Riyadh, and describes a team of more than 100 professionals.

Its work covers AI platforms and generative AI solutions, web and mobile app development, MVPs for startups, UX and UI design, software consultancy, QA testing and ongoing maintenance. It also has a Sitecore practice for organisations running that content platform. On Clutch, AI development now makes up the largest share of its work, followed by mobile apps, design and web development.

Blink22 publishes a client list heavy with Gulf and regional technology names, including Careem, Tamara, Salik, Geidea, CAFU, Jumia, Rizek and Khatabook. Financial services is its biggest sector, followed by logistics and transport, ecommerce, education and retail.

It lists a minimum project size of 25,000 US dollars and hourly rates in the 50 to 99 dollar band, which places it at the higher end of the Dubai software market. That fits funded startups and established companies building a core product, where experience with fintech, payments and high-traffic consumer apps matters.

Small businesses with a modest first project may find the minimum too high, and a smaller local agency will usually be a better match for a straightforward website or simple app.
