About

Built in Abu Dhabi, for how the Gulf works

Talsila comes from operators who spent years running external teams across the region and kept hitting the same wall: the work was serious, and the tooling was a spreadsheet.

The name

Talsila joins talent with sila, the Arabic word for link or connection. It also echoes silsila, a chain: a sequence of trusted links. That is the product in one word. Every external worker becomes a strong, verified link in one connected chain of work, from request to payment to record.

What we are building

Software, not services. Talsila is a platform and a system of record for the external workforce, with an AI layer that prepares decisions and a hard rule that we never hold anyone's money.

We are starting in the UAE with a small group of design partners, and we will expand into Saudi Arabia from Abu Dhabi.

The team

Three operators, going full time

Co-CEOs, each owning a function. All three move to Talsila full time on 1 January 2027.
