Problem
Visa document processing for Hajj and Umrah still runs on manual re-typing
- Operators re-key passport and ID fields from scanned images by hand for every pilgrim, at a scale of thousands of documents per batch.
- Confirming a new photo matches a pilgrim's prior passport or ID record is done by eye, if it's done at all, rather than systematically.
- Every document in a batch gets the same level of manual review regardless of how legible or complete it is, so reviewers spend time on documents that need none.
- Nusuk submission fields are filled in separately from the source documents, creating a second point where transcription errors can enter the record.
Solution
Documents extract, match, and file themselves — exceptions only reach a human
Product
Wathiqa in action
How it works
From first touch to outcome
Upload
A batch of passports or ID documents is submitted from the operator system.
Extract
Arabic-aware OCR reads every field in seconds, with a live confidence score per document.
Match
Each photo is matched against prior records to confirm identity automatically.
Auto-fill
High-confidence documents populate Nusuk directly; only exceptions reach a human reviewer.
Market
Sizing the opportunity
- TAM — $780M. MENA identity-verification & document-automation market
- SAM — $85M. Saudi Hajj & Umrah visa and document-processing technology market
- SOM — $6M. 3-year obtainable share via design-partner Umrah operator pilots
Nusuk-mediated visa volumes have grown as Saudi Arabia expands Umrah capacity under Vision 2030, and operators processing thousands of documents per batch have a direct cost incentive to cut manual data entry rather than add headcount each season.
Business model
How Wathiqa makes money
Per-document processing fee
Operators pay per document processed through OCR, face matching, and Nusuk auto-fill.
Batch-volume subscription tier
Higher-volume operators move to a flat monthly subscription covering unlimited batches up to a committed volume.
Implementation & integration fee
One-time fee to connect an operator's existing booking system to the processing pipeline.

Competition
Where we win
Our edge
- Arabic-first OCR tuned specifically for Saudi passport and ID formats, not a Latin-only model retrofitted for Arabic.
- Exception-only review means human attention goes only where confidence is actually low, not to every document.
- Sovereign, NDMO-classified hosting for passport, ID, and biometric match data — a requirement offshore vendors can't meet.
- Founding team combines Saudi operator-side document-workflow experience with computer-vision engineering.
Traction
Early validation, built for pilot readiness
- Full document-processing product experience built end-to-end: OCR extraction, face matching, exception queue, and Nusuk auto-fill.
- Architecture pre-aligned to PDPL, Nusuk Certified, NDMO Classification, and ISO 27001.
- Actively selecting design-partner Umrah operators for a first pilot cohort.
Go-to-market
Land on one operator's peak-season batch, then scale to full volume
- 1Land with 1-2 design-partner Umrah operators, starting with a single high-volume batch during a peak-season window.
- 2Prove processing-time and error-rate reduction against the operator's current manual process.
- 3Expand to full document volume and additional operators through Umrah operator-association relationships.
Team
Built by operators, not just builders
The ask
Raising a seed round to reach first operator pilots
We're raising to fund OCR and face-matching model hardening on Saudi document formats, Nusuk integration work, and the core team through first-revenue pilot deployments.
