Everything a ride-hailing service needs
Mobility is a huge market in Saudi Arabia, and it runs on apps. Whether you are a fleet or limousine company wanting to take bookings directly, or a startup building the next regional ride-hailing brand, the platform is the same: a rider app to book and track, a driver app to accept and navigate, and a dispatch dashboard to match, monitor and manage every trip.
Shyphan builds all three. Riders book instantly or schedule, see the driver arrive live, and pay by card, wallet or cash; drivers get matched jobs, turn-by-turn navigation and clear earnings; and your operations team manages drivers, pricing, zones, promotions and safety from one dashboard. At the heart is a flexible fare engine - distance, time, surge, zones and corporate rates - and real-time matching that keeps wait times low.
It is built for the Kingdom - local payments, Arabic and English, safety features like SOS and trip sharing, and the reliability riders expect - so you launch a service that competes here, not a template.
