Opteam

Opteam, based in the United Arab Emirates, specializes in advanced construction project management software that enhances efficiency and oversight, particularly through AI-enabled tools for scheduling and planning. Opteam is a Dubai-based company founded in 2020 by Ahmed Hegazy and Tarek Hegazy. The company focuses on developing software solutions that aid construction project management and has completed 2 significant deals to date. Ahmed Hegazy leads the company as CEO.

The company has not undergone any major pivots or changes in business strategy since its inception. Opteam specializes in delivering advanced construction project management software designed to enhance efficiency and oversight in project execution. The core offering includes an AI-enabled construction planning and scheduling tool that allows users to upload project files from platforms such as Primavera, Microsoft Project, or Excel. This software automates the collection of progress data through communication channels like WhatsApp and email, significantly reducing manual tracking time by up to 80%.

Opteam's solutions primarily cater to construction companies, project managers, and contractors in regions including North America, Europe, and the Middle East, addressing critical industry challenges such as budget overruns and project delays by enabling real-time tracking, progress analysis, and risk management. Opteam generates revenue through a subscription-based model that allows clients to access its software solutions for construction project management. Clients, which include both large construction firms and independent contractors, pay a subscription fee to utilize features such as real-time progress tracking, instant reporting, and project health analytics. These recurring revenues are generated through various pricing plans based on the scale of usage and the size of the client’s operations.

By leveraging its flagship AI-enabled software, Opteam strengthens its value proposition to customers who seek to streamline project management processes, ultimately supporting investment in infrastructure projects across diverse sectors. In January 2025, Opteam raised an undisclosed amount of pre-seed funding led by returning investor Plus Venture Capital, with participation from new investors Dar Ventures, SAIC Venture Capital, and Oraseya Capital. The company will use the funding to expand its team and establish its market presence in the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Opteam is planning to develop new product features that enhance its project management capabilities, with a focus on releasing these updates in the upcoming quarters.
