A landing zone built for airports and airlines — with the legacy integrations that public cloud never ships.

Problem
Public cloud alone can't modernize a Saudi airport or airline
- AODB, PSS, RMS, and BHS workloads depend on legacy AFTN/Type B messaging and SITA feeds that public hyperscaler landing zones don't ship adapters for, turning every migration into a multi-year custom integration project.
- NDMO classification and CITC's cloud regulatory framework require sensitive airport and airline operational data to stay in-Kingdom, ruling out default public-cloud regions for regulated workloads.
- Seasonal peaks — Hajj, Umrah, summer travel — demand elastic capacity, but airports and airlines often over-provision infrastructure year-round just to survive a few peak weeks.
- GACA, NCA CCC, and PDPL compliance mapping is normally built from scratch per project, adding months to every cloud migration before a single workload moves.
Solution
A landing zone pre-wired for airport and airline legacy systems
Product
Sahab in action
How it works
From first touch to outcome
Assess
Map existing AODB, PSS, RMS, and legacy messaging workloads against ready-made landing-zone patterns.
Land
Stand up an in-Kingdom landing zone with security, identity, and network baselines pre-configured.
Integrate
Connect legacy AFTN/Type B and SITA feeds through reference adapters, not custom one-off code.
Scale
Flex capacity for Hajj, Umrah, and seasonal peaks without a year-round over-provisioned footprint.
Market
Sizing the opportunity
- TAM — $2.6B. Saudi & GCC sovereign/regulated cloud infrastructure market
- SAM — $310M. Saudi in-Kingdom cloud landing zones for regulated aviation workloads
- SOM — $20M. 3-year obtainable share via GACA-regulated airport and airline migrations
CITC's cloud regulatory framework and NDMO data classification requirements, combined with Vision 2030-driven airport expansion at NEOM, Red Sea International, Riyadh, and Jeddah, are pushing airports and airlines toward in-Kingdom infrastructure purpose-built for regulated workloads rather than generic public-cloud regions.
Business model
How Sahab makes money
Landing-zone platform subscription
Recurring fee priced by workload and compute footprint under management.
Migration & integration services fee
One-time engagement fee to move legacy AODB, PSS, RMS, and BHS workloads into the landing zone.
Compliance-pack subscription
Ongoing add-on for GACA, NCA CCC, and PDPL control-mapping and audit-reporting.

Competition
Where we win
Our edge
- Only landing zone with pre-built AFTN/Type B, SITA, and ODBC-era adapters for AODB, PSS, BHS, and RMS workloads.
- Compliance packs pre-mapped to GACA, NCA CCC, and PDPL cut audit preparation from months to weeks — a structural head start regulated customers can't get from generic cloud.
- In-Kingdom data residency by default, aligned to NDMO classification and CITC's cloud regulatory framework.
- Founding team combines Saudi cloud and infrastructure delivery experience with aviation systems integration.
Traction
Early validation, built for pilot readiness
- Full landing-zone product experience designed and built end-to-end: workload assessment, landing-zone provisioning, legacy integration adapters, migration accelerators.
- Architecture pre-aligned to NDMO Classification, CITC Cloud Regulatory Framework, PDPL, NCA CCC, ISO 27001, and GACA.
- Actively selecting design-partner airports and airlines for a first pilot cohort.
Go-to-market
Land on one workload, expand to the full portfolio
- 1Land with 1-2 design-partner airports or airlines migrating a single regulated workload, such as AODB or PSS.
- 2Prove migration speed and compliance-readiness gains over a pilot engagement, then expand to the full workload portfolio.
- 3Expand via GACA, NDMO, and CITC-aligned regulatory relationships and system-integrator partnerships.
Team
Built by operators, not just builders
The ask
Raising a seed round to reach first airport and airline cloud migrations
We're raising to fund legacy-integration engineering, GACA/NCA CCC/PDPL compliance work, and the core team through first-revenue pilot migrations with design-partner airports and airlines.
