Dubai-based startup Arabic.AI has officially emerged from stealth mode, unveiling the first autonomous AI platform engineered specifically for the Arabic language. With operations spanning MENA, the U.S., and Europe, the company enters the market with a strong technological edge over global competitors.
Founded by serial entrepreneur Nour Al Hassan, known for launching the language technology leader Tarjama, Arabic.AI has developed its own large language model Pronoia, which has outperformed GPT-4, DeepSeek, and Cohere in Arabic-specific tasks.
“At last, Arabic is no longer an afterthought in AI,” said Al Hassan at the launch event. “We’ve built something fundamentally different—an autonomous system that actually understands the nuances of Arabic across multiple dialects and contexts.”
The platform enables systems to execute complex tasks autonomously, already adopted by enterprises in finance, healthcare, legal, and media sectors.
Arabic.AI offers three main enterprise solutions:
- Engine Licensing: Integrate Pronoia directly into proprietary software.
- Platform Integration: Use Arabic.AI as a standalone or within existing infrastructure.
- Custom Solutions: Tailor AI services to meet complex, industry-specific needs.
This flexibility allows businesses to access Arabic AI tech through out-of-the-box tools, integration, or fully customized services.
Andrii Klyiman, Head of Product, explained:
“Previous Arabic AI solutions required extensive human oversight. This represents a notable advancement in how enterprises can handle Arabic content at scale”
Arabic.AI launches at a time when regional AI infrastructure investment is booming, with MENA enterprises demanding localized Arabic solutions over retrofitted Western models.
