About
Founder-led, by design.
Skitos Labs is an independent software studio in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates. Founder-led, deliberately small, and close to the industries we serve.
The studio started with a simple observation: the software this region’s working industries rely on is either imported or missing entirely. We think that gap is worth a career. We started with an industry we know, real estate, and built Aqarik to run a UAE agency end to end.
What we believe
- Underserved beats crowded
- The industries that move property, goods, and people still run on spreadsheets, paper, and WhatsApp threads. That’s where software is worth building.
- Bilingual by default
- Arabic and English as equals: true right-to-left layouts, real translations, and interfaces that feel natural in both.
- Run it or hand it over
- Some things we build and run ourselves, like Aqarik: the hosting, the support, and the roadmap stay with us. Others we build for a company and hand over, documented and ready for their team to own. Either way, it ships finished.
- Small, senior, accountable
- A deliberately small studio that owns design, engineering, and infrastructure end to end. No layers between you and the people building.
