Contact: contact@glyphtechnology.net, phone and WhatsApp +20 106 623 4705, website https://glyphtechnology.net/ ## Services - **Web & Apps**: custom websites and web applications, including booking and reservation systems, inventory tools, e-commerce, multi-vendor marketplaces, member portals, and admin dashboards with real metrics. Real products, not templates. - **Digitization**: turning paper processes and manual workflows into streamlined digital systems for operations teams. - **AI & Data**: automation, reporting, data tools, machine learning and computer vision applications (for example image classification and object detection models served behind a web app). - **Brand Identity**: logo and mark, colour and type system, full visual identity and brand guidelines. - **Digital Audit**: a focused discovery and scoping sprint before building, so the right problem gets solved. Technical stack used most often: React, Node.js, Express, MongoDB or SQLite, Python (Flask, TensorFlow/Keras, YOLO/Ultralytics) for AI work. Local Egyptian payment gateways integrated in production: Paymob and Kashier. Bilingual English/Arabic (right-to-left) builds are a standard scope item. ## Engagement models - **Consultation**: a working session to pressure-test an idea, with a technical and feasibility review, scope and cost estimate, and clear next steps. No obligation to build with Glyph. - **Full Build** (recommended): audit, brand, build, launch. Glyph takes full ownership from understanding the problem to shipping a polished product, including QA, launch and handoff. - **Partial**: for teams that already have a partial solution; Glyph fills the gaps in design, development or strategy, with flexible scope and no long-term lock-in. - **Retainer**: a fixed block of hours every month for ongoing digital support, with priority turnaround and regular check-ins. Reusable products such as booking, inventory and learning platforms can be offered as SaaS (low setup plus monthly, Glyph hosts and maintains) or as a buyout (one-time license, the client owns the code). Quotes are given as a low-to-high range, in EGP for clients in Egypt and USD for international clients. ## Selected work - [El Gouna Sailing Club](https://gounasailingclub.com/): custom website with a full booking system, Paymob online payments, email notifications, admin dashboard and dynamic content management, plus brand identity. - [Qobtan](https://qobtan.net/): full-stack platform for boat tourism and commerce.
