02 — How we work

One operating system, four moves.

Build, Operate, Grow and Partner are not four service lines. They are the sequence we run on every business we touch — our own and our partners'.

Build

We start businesses ourselves where we see a durable growth opportunity — product, team and commercial model together.

Operate

We run them day to day, with our own teams and systems, and hold them to operating discipline rather than headlines.

Grow

We scale what works — into new markets, new revenue lines and new products, and stop what does not.

Partner

We build alongside founders, operators and enterprises when the opportunity is bigger than any one of us.

03 — Enterprise AI

Enterprise AI products, built for growth.

We develop Enterprise AI products, and take them to market the way we take any business to market — build, operate, grow, partner. What they are measured on is business growth: for the organisations that run them, and for the industries they work in.

01

Built the way we build businesses

Build, operate, grow, partner — the same four moves, applied to a product line rather than a company.

02

Measured on growth

The test is what a product does to an organisation's growth, not how advanced it is underneath.

03

Across industries

Built for organisations in different sectors rather than tuned to a single vertical.

First products launch Q4 2026

04 — Current businesses

What we own and operate today.

Each business keeps its own brand, market and leadership. SabaCell is the group that builds, funds and grows them.

05 — Track record

Selected ventures we backed and built.

History, not holdings. These are past investments and early bets in Iran's digital ecosystem — from backing founders directly to a minority position in a venture capital fund. They show how the group finds and backs growth; they are not part of what we operate today.

Adtrace

Mobile attribution and digital advertising analytics, acquired by Digikala Group — Iran's largest e-commerce group.

Backed · Exited

Kavan

Social media and web monitoring, with a substantial enterprise client base. Acquired by Agah Financial Group and withdrawn from the market — it runs there as an internal tool.

Backed · Exited

Barai

Computer vision as a service for enterprises, with a real client base. Built before LLMs; rather than carry it into a changed technical paradigm we shut it down, and the ambition continues as SabaCell Enterprise AI.

Early AI venture · 2019

Arman Ati VC Fund I

An exchange-traded venture capital fund, registered with Iran's Securities and Exchange Organization. Ecosystem participation, not an operating interest.
