Our take
Numrah is a mobile messaging development company operating out of Saudi Arabia, aiming to become the leading messaging company in the Middle East and North Africa.
Whilst European and Western digital messaging app markets are in the thrall of companies such as WhatsApp, the MENA region is a varied and province-dependent sector. Numrah has been cited as one of Saudi Arabia’s best mobile startups on beststartup.asia, and seems to be turning heads across the region.
That being said, Numrah’s website only has two products - a toolkit for evaluating business ideas and an app-building cost calculator. Whilst these two products may act as an initial introduction and consultancy for Numrah, its client list and achievements to date are either still in stealth mode or are yet to come to fruition. Numrah must build up a public client list and expand its team to achieve the ambitious goals it has set itself.
