Technology consulting for companies in Kurdistan and Iraq

Advice from engineers who build

Enzziro is a software company in Sulaymaniyah (Slemani). Alongside building mobile apps, web platforms and custom software, we advise businesses in the Kurdistan Region and across Iraq on technology decisions before they commit money to them.

The advice comes from the engineers who do the building, not from a separate sales team. That keeps it grounded: we recommend what we would be willing to build and maintain ourselves, and we'll say so when the answer is to buy an existing product rather than commission one.

What we help with

• Build or buy. Whether an off-the-shelf product, a customised one, or custom software is the right fit, and what each will really cost to run.
• Choosing a tech stack. Languages, frameworks, hosting and third-party services suited to your product, your budget and the developers you can hire locally.
• Architecture reviews. A structured look at an existing system: how it is built, where it will break as usage grows, and where the security risks are.
• Project rescue. Stepping in when a project with another vendor has stalled. We assess what exists, what can be kept, and the fastest honest route to a working product.
• Vendor and proposal review. Reading development quotes and proposals on your behalf, so you know what you are comparing.
• Technical leadership on retainer. Ongoing guidance for companies that need senior technical judgement but aren't ready to hire a full-time CTO.

Questions specific to Kurdistan and Iraq

Some decisions look different here than in guides written for other markets:

• Languages. Will the product need Kurdish and Arabic? Adding right-to-left support later costs far more than planning for it.
• Payments. Which local wallets, bank payment services or card processors can you actually get a merchant account with, and do they offer an API?
• Hosting and data. Where the data should live, how fast it loads for users in Iraq, and what your sector's rules require.
• Hiring. Whether the stack you choose is one local developers know, so you can staff it after launch.

How an engagement works

1. Intro call. We learn the decision you're facing and the constraints around it.
2. Review. We read the existing code, documents, proposals or system, and talk to the people involved.
3. Written recommendation. A clear report with the options, their trade-offs and costs, and what we'd do.
4. Optional follow-through. Your own team executes it, we build it, or we stay on in an advisory role.

The same planning discipline sits at the start of every project we build; see our process.

Who this is for

• Founders without a technical co-founder who need someone on their side of the table when talking to developers.
• Established businesses moving work off paper, WhatsApp or spreadsheets, deciding what to digitise first.
• Teams with a stalled project who need an outside view before spending more.
• Companies with in-house developers who want a second opinion on architecture or a planned rewrite.

What affects the cost

Consulting is scoped by the question, not by the hour-count we can bill:

• A single decision, such as build-or-buy or stack choice, is a short, fixed engagement.
• A review of an existing system depends on its size and how much documentation exists.
• Ongoing technical leadership is a monthly retainer sized to how much of our time you need.

Frequently asked questions

Do we have to build with you afterwards?

No. The recommendation is yours to use with any team. If we think another vendor or an existing product is the better fit, the report will say so.

Can you review code written by another company?

Yes. With access to the repository and the running system, we review how it is structured, how it is deployed and where the risks are, and explain it in plain language.

Can you help us compare quotes from developers?

Yes. We read proposals side by side, point out what each one leaves out, and list the questions to ask before you sign.

Do you work with companies outside Kurdistan?

Yes. Most of our work is with businesses in the Kurdistan Region and Iraq, and we also work with clients abroad, including a client in Dubai.
