Velents.ai, a startup specializing in enterprise AI solutions, secured USD 1.5 million funding round. The round was led by angel investors including senior executives from Google, BCG, and other global firms.

Founded by Mohamed Gaber and Abdulaziz Almuhaydib, Velents is a startup specializing in enterprise AI solutions. The startup is powered by a joint Egyptian-Saudi team. It was initially focused on recruitment and then relaunched in 2023 with a broader mission to help organizations attract talent through AI driven solutions. 

AI Employee

Simultaneously, the startup launched Agent.sa, a fully autonomous AI employee fluent in Arabic and its regional dialects. The startup claims it is capable of operating within companies just like a human team member. The agent can answer phone calls, manage WhatsApp conversations, track customer requests, execute tasks, and analyze data. Moreover, this is all in Arabic, without the need for translation layers or complex interfaces.

“We’re delivering a real digital employee who works alongside human teams. Our goal is to empower Arab companies with an intelligent worker who understands their language, their dialect, and enhances their daily productivity,” said Mohamed Gaber, co-founder and CEO of Velents. 

Velents is positioning Agent.sa as a solution for industries ranging from banking and telecom to logistics and healthcare. The agent’s capabilities span voice and text interactions across WhatsApp, Telegram, and Instagram. It is also capable of data analysis, order tracking, and operational task execution, all in fluent, localized Arabic. Additionally, it can operate 24/7 handling thousands of customer interactions simultaneously.
