What we run
We are our own first client.
Every property below belongs to us. Each one has to win its own visitors, its own listings and its own mention inside AI answers.
The AI-readable structure, the structured data, the listings and the review systems run on our own properties before any of it reaches a client. We ship nothing we have not already used ourselves.
01
Compliance document products
Paperwork products for trades and employers, selling in more than one country, each ranked by its own site.
02
A mobile app
A phone app, with the website, the listings and the content machine that feed it.
03
A podcast clipping service
A service we sell and deliver in house, on its own site, with its own flow of buyers.
04
Content businesses
Media properties whose entire job is to be easy to find, easy to read and worth quoting.
Client proof for UAE businesses
The method we run in Dubai, already proven on four sites in four countries.
Before we sold AI visibility to a single clinic, broker or consultancy in the UAE, our founder ran the same method on four properties he owns abroad. These are the AI visibility case studies from those four, every figure read from Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools on 13 October 2026.
Swipe for the other 3.
The same work now runs for businesses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah. No UAE figure is printed here yet: the first one goes on the Research page the day a client passes day 90. Ask on a call and we will walk you through the screenshot behind every one of these numbers.
Get your business recommended by AI within 90 days.
What we know about AI answers
We work in these tools every day.
First-party data
The UAE market data on this site came out of tooling we wrote: 38 markets across 14 industries and 3 cities, all 38 of them with the AI answer check run and dated, and 480 websites screened. Every number on a market page comes from that run, not from a survey.
01
The answer engines themselves
ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Mode, Gemini and Copilot are open here every day, and we track how each one settles on the businesses it names.
02
The APIs underneath
Our own software calls the OpenAI, Anthropic and Google APIs, so we read and write the machine-readable layer behind these tools instead of guessing at it.
03
Our own screening tools
We wrote the tooling that screens a market. It pulls the websites of the businesses AI names, checks what an assistant can and cannot read on each one, including whether there is an Arabic version, then asks the answer engines who they recommend.
How we work with clients
Data first, then a pitch, then the work.
One industry at a time
We study one industry, build its data, and sell into it only after that. Fourteen UAE industries are running now.
Data before pitch
The market gets screened and the AI answers get run before we speak to anybody in it. If somebody already owns that answer, we say so.
Where you stand comes first
5 real buyer questions, put through ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI Mode, screenshotted and dated, with the plan to get you recommended, before you pay anything.
Only a few clients per industry in each city
We work with only a few clients per industry in each city, spread across different areas, so no two of our clients compete for the same neighbourhood's answer. If your area is already taken we tell you straight away.
Named by AI inside 90 days, or every dirham comes back
Your name has to show in 3 or more of the 5 agreed prompts, on 2 or more of the 3 tools, by day 90. Miss that and 100% of the 3 months is refunded.
Dated screenshots every 30 days
Those same 5 prompts, run again, captured and scored, so nobody has to trust our word about the movement.
Everything we build stays yours
The site, the pages, the structured data and the listings belong to the client, whether they stay, leave or take the refund.
What we will not do
The lines we do not cross.
- Fake reviews. No version of that, for any reason.
- Paid placements dressed up as organic mentions.
- Outcome claims, medical claims or property investment claims.
- Banned words. DHA Standard 6.11 bans the best, the only, 100% and similar language in health advertising, and we do not write them for anyone.
- Anything a medical director or a compliance officer would not sign off on.
- Lock-in contracts. Three months is the minimum because the guarantee needs it, and it is month to month after that.
A job that only works with one of these on the list is a job we turn down, and we say so before you pay us.
Who this is for
Businesses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah that buyers research first.
Dubai agencies publish SEO retainers of AED 3,000 to 8,000 a month for a growing SME (Skimbox, agency published, Jun 2026), and a single clinic is quoted AED 15,000 to 40,000 a month for digital marketing (Digisoftrank, agency published, Jul 2026). One thing none of those quotes carries is a guarantee. That is the gap we work in.
Who runs this
The person behind Curious Mind Labs.
Karthik Varma
Founder, Curious Mind Labs FZCO
Karthik Varma spent more than ten years in sales and product roles at B2B software companies, selling to clients in North America, Europe and the Middle East. Before offering the work to anyone else he built and ranked his own products, in four countries: a contractor safety paperwork product in the United States, a construction document pack for Australia and New Zealand, a workplace risk assessment tool for small employers in France, and a devotional app in the United States. Each one was picked up by Google, Bing and the AI answer engines inside its first 90 days. Curious Mind Labs FZCO, registered in the IFZA free zone in Dubai, brings that same method to businesses in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah.
