Smart infrastructure & IoT
Sensors, cameras, and device networks that turn the physical world into signal.
Headquartered in Makkah · Operating internationally
Intelligence Underneath.
Impact Everywhere.
Rizoma builds the connected technology layer for cities, ports, airports, industrial zones and critical infrastructure, in Saudi Arabia and around the world, then turns its data into intelligence leaders, operators and systems can act on.

What we do
One connected stack, from infrastructure to decisions.
Most organisations already own the signals. We connect them, govern them and make them mean something, one layer at a time, wherever in the world you operate.
Systems integration
Connecting systems that were never designed to speak to each other into one view.
Data & intelligence architecture
The trustworthy, governed data foundation everything else is built on.
AI & decision intelligence
Detection, prediction, and prioritisation, grounded in real operations, not demos.
Digital twin environments
Live spatial context that maps assets, zones, incidents, and status to the real world.
Smart operations & automation
Alerts, escalation, and coordinated response that close the loop from signal to action.
Flagship platform
WiqAIa. A live intelligence layer for critical environments.
Detects incidents, understands context, and coordinates response through a digital-twin-enabled operational picture for operators, supervisors and executives, from a single district to a national programme.
Computer vision
AI video analysis detecting events, risks, and operational anomalies.
IoT sensors
Environmental, utility, asset, and safety-related data inputs.
Digital twin
A contextual model mapping assets, zones, incidents, and status.
Event intelligence
Rules and models that classify events and prioritise severity.
Automated response
Integration with utilities, alerts, and escalation paths.
Command dashboards
Views for operators, supervisors, executives, and stakeholders.
Control rooms
Command centres where everything comes together.
We design, build and equip control rooms and command centres: the physical room, the video wall, the operator consoles, and the intelligence that runs across them. One environment where executives, supervisors and field teams see the same live picture and act on it.
- Room, wall and consolesLayout, ergonomics, video wall and operator positions, engineered for long shifts and fast decisions.
- One live operating pictureKPIs, camera feeds, maps, heat maps and alerts from every connected system on a single wall.
- Runs on WiqAIaEvent detection, prioritised alerts and coordinated response drive what the room sees and does.
- Procedures and peopleRoles, escalation paths and standard operating procedures, so the room works under pressure.
Platform engineering
We build and run platforms, as your development team.
Beyond our own products, Rizoma works as a dedicated engineering team for organisations that need a platform designed, taken to production and kept running. We own the roadmap with you, ship in short cycles, operate what we build, and hand over clean code and documentation, never a black box.
Right now Building and managing the Tasleem platform for Kidana, the developer of the Holy Sites in Makkah.
- Product and architectureDiscovery, service design, data models and integrations, decided with your teams before a line of code is written.
- Build in short cyclesWeb, mobile and back-end engineering with releases every few weeks, so value lands early and often.
- Operate and manageHosting, monitoring, security, support and continuous improvement after go-live, with clear SLAs.
- Your code, your platformDocumented, tested and handed over. You own the IP and can take it in-house whenever you choose.
Solutions
Where the intelligence layer lands: anywhere in the world.
Smart city intelligence
Traffic, utilities, safety, and services in one responsive layer.
Explore
Industrial zone intelligence
Real-time monitoring, AI detection, and command workflows where continuity matters.
Explore
Critical infrastructure & utilities
Early detection, asset visibility, and risk awareness for resilient operations.
Explore
Transport, airports & ports
Terminals, apron, quays and yards unified into one operational picture.
Explore
Safety & situational awareness
Vision and IoT turn detection of risks and anomalies into coordinated action.
ExploreBlockchain
Trusted records for connected infrastructure.
Rizoma's founder and CEO is a published author on blockchain, with extensive hands-on experience in distributed-ledger systems. We bring that depth to projects where shared, tamper-evident data is the difference between a dashboard and a decision you can defend.
Our view
Blockchain is not a product. It is a way of agreeing on the truth between parties that do not fully trust each other. Cities, utilities and supply chains are full of exactly those parties.
- Immutable audit trail for WiqAIa events, alerts and responses
- Shared records across agencies without a single owner
- Regulatory-aware design from day one
Blockchain strategy & architecture
Where a ledger genuinely adds value, and where it does not. Use-case selection, network design, governance and consensus models.
Permissioned enterprise & government networks
Private and consortium chains for ministries, authorities, and industry groups that need shared, tamper-evident records.
Smart contracts & process automation
Multi-party workflows such as permits, settlements and approvals, executed as code, with auditability built in.
Data integrity for IoT & digital twins
Anchoring sensor events, alerts and inspections to an immutable ledger, so the operational record can be trusted.
Digital identity & credentials
Verifiable credentials for people, assets and organisations across agencies and borders.
Tokenisation & digital assets
Representing real-world assets, rights and records on-chain, within the applicable regulatory framework.
Our approach
We start with outcomes, not tools.
A focused proof of concept first, then expansion into a platform and a transformation programme.
