Saudi startup Rekaz raises $5 million in seed funding

Saudi-based software startup Rekaz has raised $5 million in seed funding to scale its product and expand its regional presence. The round was led by COTU Ventures, with participation from Impact46, Shorooq, Numrah Capital, and angel investors.

Rekaz provides an all-in-one operating system for service-based businesses—such as gyms, salons, and mobile providers—covering everything from scheduling and subscriptions to payments and client management. The platform enables businesses to launch branded booking sites and apps, replacing manual workflows with intelligent, streamlined solutions.

Over 7,000 businesses have processed more than 1 million appointments and subscriptions through Rekaz.

“Our mission is to do for service SMBs what Shopify did for e-commerce,” said CEO and co-founder Abdulrahman Alomran.

With AI-powered insights, personalised onboarding, and flexible architecture, Rekaz is tailored to the real-world needs of service businesses. The new funding will accelerate product development, expand AI capabilities, and support regional growth across the GCC and beyond.
