Our story

Two stones, one motion

Tisira is an Arabic-first AI and digital product studio in the UAE, run by two founders. One runs every project, one builds it. We work with institutions in Abu Dhabi and businesses in the UAE and Istanbul, turning raw ideas into working products.

Where the name comes from

التقنية… تيسيراً

Say ittee-SEE-raتيسيرا

Tisira (say it tee-SEE-ra) comes from tasirt (ⵜⴰⵙⵉⵔⵜ), the Amazigh hand quern: two round stones, the lower one still, the upper one turning on a pivot through its eye. Grain goes in at the centre and comes out as flour. In Amazigh homes the quern turned to the rhythm of song, and in 1975 the Kabyle singer Taos Amrouche put songs of the quern on record. In Arabic, تيسيرا reads as تيسيراً: making things easy.

In Tifinagh, the letter ⵙ (s) is a circle with a dot at its centre: a quern seen from above. Our logo starts there. The saffron peg is the handle, the hand that turns the stone.

The two stones

Hayet Bitam

Batna, the Aurès, Algeria

A chemical engineer, trained in analytical industrial chemistry at the University of Batna, and HSSE-certified. Hayet lived in Istanbul before the UAE. At Tisira she runs projects from brief to launch, designs them, and signs client proposals.

Bilal Khemar

How we work

  1. 01

    Two founders, start to finish

    Both of us on every project, from the first call to launch day. Nothing is passed to juniors.

  2. 02

    Arabic first

    Designed in Arabic from the start, not translated afterwards: real right-to-left layouts, Arabic search, 0-9 digits.

  3. 03

    Prototype early

    A clickable prototype before the full build, so you decide on something real.

  4. 04

    Secure at the core

    Row-level security in the database and automated tests on real user journeys. Verified before shipping.

  5. 05

    Days, then weeks

    A working demo in days. A launch in weeks.
