Built and hardened by CareerBook Co

Business software that fits how you actually work

1 platform, every department

100% Arabic & English interface

0 sales lost to a dropped connection

Who we are

CareerBook builds the operational backbone for growing businesses

CareerBook Co is a technology company focused on one problem: businesses outgrow spreadsheets and disconnected tools long before they can afford — or absorb — a heavyweight enterprise system.

We built on the world's most capable open-source business platform and did the work that usually gets skipped: made it genuinely Arabic-first, hardened it for real shop-floor conditions, and closed the gaps that cost money on an ordinary trading day.

The result is a system your team can use from day one, on hardware you already own, in the language they think in.

Licensing Open source — no per-app fees

The platform

Everything the business runs on, connected

Sell something and the stock moves, the invoice drafts itself and the numbers land in the accounts. No re-keying, no reconciliation at month end.

◪

Sales & CRM

Pipeline, quotations, orders and customer history in one thread. Quote today, invoice the same minute it is approved.

▣

Real-time stock across locations, with hard protection against promising goods you do not physically have.

Invoicing, payments, taxes and statements posted automatically from the operations that caused them.

Every attachment, contract and scan filed against the record it belongs to, searchable and backed up with the database.

◼

Spreadsheets & Dashboards

Live spreadsheets and management dashboards reading real records — reports that never go stale between exports.

WhatsApp & SMS

Order confirmations, invoices and support replies sent on the channel your customers actually read — logged on the record.

…plus Contacts, Employees, Approvals, Lunch, Rewards, Quality checks, Barcode scanning, Subscriptions-style recurring billing, multi-company and multi-currency — every application of the platform is included, with no per-app licence.

Integrations

It connects to the systems you already run

Nothing here has to be replaced on day one. The platform exposes a documented API and speaks the standard formats, so it can sit alongside your existing tools and exchange data with them both ways.

⇄

Open API (REST / XML-RPC / JSON-RPC)

Every record and every action available to a user is available to a program — read, create, update and trigger workflows from any external system.

⚡

Webhooks & automation

Push events out the moment they happen, or let incoming calls create records — and wire it to Zapier, Make or n8n without writing a service.

◫

Accounting & banking

Bank statement import (OFX, QIF, CSV, CAMT.053), SEPA and EMV QR payments, and export to your auditor's format.

▣

E-invoicing & tax authorities

UBL / Peppol / Factur-X out of the box, plus the localisation packs for Egypt (ETA), Saudi Arabia (ZATCA) and the wider GCC.

◳

Gmail and Outlook / Microsoft 365 sync, Google and Microsoft calendars, plus SSO through OAuth2, SAML-style providers or your LDAP / Active Directory.

▤

Hardware

Barcode scanners, receipt and label printers, cash drawers, electronic scales, card terminals and attendance kiosks.

◪

Data migration & BI

Bulk import/export in Excel and CSV, plus direct read-only database access for Power BI, Metabase or your own reporting stack.

Custom modules & apps

And when your business does not work like the brochure, we build the part that does

No two businesses run the same way. A pharmacy chain, a contracting firm and a furniture factory need different approvals, different documents and different numbers on the screen — even when they use the same core apps.

CareerBook builds custom modules on top of the platform, shaped around how your sector actually operates. They install like any other app, upgrade with the system, and stay yours.

Custom fields & screens Your terminology, your data

Approval workflows Matching your real chain of command

Documents & reports Invoices and forms in your format

Sector modules Built for your industry's rules

Bespoke integrations Any system with an interface

Modules we have shaped for specific sectors

Retail chains Pharmacies Restaurants & cafés Contracting & construction Manufacturing Distribution & wholesale Clinics & medical centres Training centres & academies Logistics & transport Real estate Agencies & professional services Field service & maintenance

We map how you work

A short discovery with the people who actually do the job — not a questionnaire.

Configure first, code second

Anything the platform already does, we configure. Custom code is reserved for the genuine gap.

Build it as a proper module

Packaged, versioned and upgrade-safe — never a patch on top of the core that breaks next release.

Hand it over, keep supporting it

Your team is trained on it and the source is yours. Ongoing support is a choice, not a lock-in.

The difference

What CareerBook adds to the standard platform

The standard platform is excellent software with real gaps for a business operating in Arabic, on imperfect internet, with stock that must never be oversold. Each item below is a gap we closed.

Capability

Standard platform

CareerBook

Selling offline Internet drops mid-shift

Orders queue, but a page reload ends the session and the queue needs a manual push

Till survives a reload, retries on its own, and refuses to close the session with unsynced orders

Overselling stock Promising goods you do not have

Warns after the fact, or at confirmation — the wrong number is already on the document

Blocked as it is typed, in sales, invoices, deliveries and at the POS keypad

Backups The day something goes wrong

Manual download behind a master password, no schedule, no retention, no alerting

Scheduled database + filestore backups with rotation, a full audit trail and failure alerts

Arabic The language your team works in

Translated strings, but Latin-first typography and RTL rough edges

Arabic-first type system and RTL treated as a primary layout, not an afterthought

The first screen Where staff land after login

A flat, alphabetical app grid

A home dashboard grouped by business area, with live counters, search, pinning and quick actions

Help Desk & Field Service Enterprise-only elsewhere

Requires a paid subscription

Included, using mature open-source equivalents — no per-app licence

Look and feel Software your team is proud to use

Generic default theme

A complete brand system across the backend, portal, documents and emails

Who it is for

Built for businesses with moving parts

Retail & wholesale

Multiple outlets, real stock, and a till that cannot stop because the line went down.

Distribution & trading

Purchase, warehouse and deliver with accurate availability at the moment of the promise.

Manufacturing

Bills of materials, work orders and costing tied to the stock and the ledger.

Services & field teams

Technicians, jobs and equipment scheduled, tracked and invoiced from one record.

How you benefit

What changes in the first month

Stop selling stock you do not have

The single most expensive everyday error — an oversold order — becomes impossible to enter, rather than something you discover in the warehouse.

Keep taking money during an outage

The till carries on through a dropped connection and reconciles itself afterwards. No paper fallback, no lost takings.

Enter data once

A sale moves the stock, drafts the invoice and posts the entry. The month-end reconciliation gets dramatically shorter.

Sleep through the disaster scenario

Scheduled, rotated, verified backups of the database and every attached document — with an email the moment one fails.

Train people in days, not months

A first screen that explains itself, in Arabic, grouped the way the business is actually organised.

Own your platform

Open-source foundations, your data, your server if you want it. No per-app licence creeping up each year.
