What Tasawk does

Tasawk (مؤسسة تسوق الرقمي لتقنية المعلومات, Tasawk Digital Information Technology Foundation) is a Riyadh-headquartered, Saudi-incorporated digital technology services firm founded in 2009 and registered with the Saudi Ministry of Commerce under commercial registration 1010702965. The company delivers custom e-commerce stores built on OpenCart, corporate websites built on WordPress or custom PHP, iOS and Android mobile applications, AI-enabled services (chatbots, OCR, process automation, predictive analytics), managed web hosting, and digital marketing (SEO, social media, Google Maps optimization) to Saudi government entities, large enterprises, and SMEs. Beyond custom project work, Tasawk operates three proprietary vertical SaaS products — QuickMealz for restaurants, SuperCart for supermarkets, and ZabaihMart for meat shops — targeting Saudi SMB operators with subscription-based, pre-built industry software.

The underlying technology stack is built on widely available open-source frameworks rather than proprietary infrastructure: OpenCart for e-commerce, WordPress for corporate sites, PHP for custom web development, and native iOS/Android for mobile. Full source code is delivered to clients upon final payment, eliminating ongoing platform lock-in for Tasawk. AI capabilities are offered as a service line rather than as a core product, with modalities spanning text (NLP for chatbots) and image (OCR), and capability areas covering process automation, predictive analytics, and AI system integration — none of which include disclosed proprietary models or research output.

The business model combines one-time project fees (mobile app projects disclosed from SAR 9,999 / ~$2,667) with recurring annual subscriptions for e-commerce hosting, technical support, and SaaS product access. Go-to-market is sales-led and direct, executed through website inquiry forms, WhatsApp Business, and phone consultations, supplemented by content marketing, portfolio case studies, and client testimonials. The company claims 1,500+ cumulative clients across government and enterprise logos (SABIC, Samsung, Ittihad Club, King Fahad Medical City, Raqmin) and a long tail of SME retailers. No external institutional funding, parent company, or international operations are disclosed.
