Software, built by someone who has sat in your chair.

UNO Software & AI is a founder-led studio run by Mostafa Ayed — a lawyer who spent fifteen years running legal departments, launching projects and closing deals in Dubai, and now builds the software he always wished his own businesses had.

UNO’s silver target with a glowing blue dart in the bullseye

“I spent fifteen years on the client’s side of the table — hiring agencies, approving budgets, and living with whatever they delivered. UNO is the studio I always wished I could hire.”

The road here

Law first. Business second. Software third — on purpose.

  1. 2008

    Cairo, Egypt

    A lawyer, first

    Mostafa graduated from the Faculty of Law at Cairo University in 2008 and started out practising law in Cairo. Contracts, disputes, and the fine print — the training that still sits underneath every system UNO builds, because software that ignores how businesses are legally bound together fails in the real world.

  2. 2010

    Dubai, UAE

    The move to Dubai

    In 2010 he moved to Dubai and into the property world, working in development management — feasibility, contracts, and the machinery behind getting projects built and handed over. It was the first lesson in how much of business is really process, paperwork, and follow-through — and how badly most software handles all three.

  3. 2014 – 2021

    Danube Properties

    Head of Legal at Danube Properties

    For seven years Mostafa ran the legal department of one of Dubai’s biggest developers: buying land, working on feasibility and pricing, launching 20+ projects, drafting the contracts, appointing the contractors, and handing over the finished buildings — work touching AED 2.7 billion in deals. Few software builders have ever sat on that side of a launch.

  4. 2021 – 2022

    ORO24 Investments

    Legal & Sales General Manager

    At ORO24 he carried both sides of the business at once — legal and sales — closing AED 500M+ in deals. Running revenue, not just risk, changed how he thinks about tools: a system is only worth what it helps you sell, collect, or stop losing.

  5. 2022 – 2025

    UNO Real Estate, Dubai

    His own business — and what it taught him

    Then he built and ran his own Dubai brokerage, UNO Real Estate, closing around AED 120M in deals. Running it on rented tools, spreadsheets, and software that never quite fit showed him, from the owner’s seat, what he had only seen from the outside before: the systems a business runs on are not a detail — they are the business.

  6. 2026

    UNO Software & AI

    Now — building the software

    In 2026 Mostafa founded UNO Software & AI to build the systems he spent fifteen years wishing for. He studied QA automation and programming, and works across the full stack: servers, databases, and front-end builds in Next.js with responsive layouts and a consistent UI. So every system is tested, and built around how that business really runs. The first projects are already in clients’ hands.

The founder

The mindbehind UNO

UNO is built to be direct. No account managers, no hand-offs between departments, no “the developer will get back to you.” When you hire UNO, you work with Mostafa — the same person who scopes your project, builds it, and answers for it afterwards.

That is a deliberate choice. Fifteen years of buying services taught him exactly where agencies lose a client’s money: in the gaps between the people who promise, the people who build, and the people who support. UNO is built to have no gaps. The same person, end to end, accountable for the result.

He works remotely between Lebanon, Egypt, and Canada, building with modern AI tools — and finishing every project as someone who has actually run a business.

How UNO works

Three rules, learned the expensive way — on the client’s side.

/ 01

Business first

Your software starts from the business problem, never from a template. Contracts, launches, cash flow, and fifteen years of P&L reality sit behind every screen UNO designs — so the system fits how your business actually runs, not how a demo says it should.

/ 02

Built with AI, finished by a human

Modern AI gives a founder-led studio the output speed of a whole team — that is how UNO delivers agency-scale work at a founder’s price. But every line is reviewed, tested, and owned by a human who has signed contracts and run companies, not by a prompt.

/ 03

You own your system

Your system, your data, your code — yours from day one. UNO builds so you can stay, not so you can’t leave: no lock-in, no hostage renewals, and a handover you could take to any developer tomorrow.
