We find the everyday frictions millions live with — and build the products that make them disappear.

A Dubai-based venture studio. Region-first, builders before pitchers.

What we stand for

Real problems. Real products.

Region-first

We start in the UAE, where regulation, density and ambition collide, then scale across MENA.

Portfolio compounding

One shared foundation. Each product we ship makes the next one faster and cheaper to build.

Sovereign by design

AI under sanctioned controls. Tenant-isolated. Privacy as the default, not the afterthought.


Our approach

How we build

We're a studio, not a single bet. One secured, sovereign platform sits beneath everything we make — identity, payments, audit, data — so each new product inherits what came before and reaches people faster. We build before we pitch: most of what we make is working before anyone sees a slide.


Who we are

The founders

111 Labs was founded by two Dubai-based operators who got tired of living with the same daily frictions — and decided to build the fixes rather than wait for someone else to.
