Home improvement services in Saudi Arabian households secured a $2.5 million investment through Revie, aimed at modernizing their digital offerings.
In a significant move for the Riyadh real estate market, home renovation platform Revie has raised $2.5 million in a seed round. The investment, led by Sanabil Venture Studio by Stryber, underscores confidence in Revie's vision to redefine the renovation industry.
Revie, founded by Ibrahim Abu Khadra in 2024, aims to simplify the traditionally complex renovation process. The platform connects customers with a curated network of contractors and designers, offering an end-to-end renovation solution for homeowners, investors, and businesses.
The platform's focus is on addressing common challenges in the renovation market, such as cost uncertainties, project delays, and quality control issues. By leveraging technology, Revie aims to streamline renovation services, including permitting, contractor matching, and project management.
Rayan Aebi, CEO of Sanabil Venture Studio by Stryber and Chairman of the Board of Revie, commented that Revie is setting a new standard in the renovation industry by tackling complexities with innovative, tech-driven solutions. With the new capital, Revie will focus on investing in technology to further streamline its processes and build a scalable foundation for long-term growth.
Riyadh, as Saudi Arabia’s capital and economic center, is experiencing significant residential and commercial development. Digital platforms facilitating real estate and renovations are increasingly important in this environment. The investment in Revie aligns with regional market dynamics favoring digital transformation and service efficiency in home improvement.
This investment in a Riyadh-based home renovation platform like Revie indicates a trend toward integrating technology in renovation processes in Riyadh. For example, the Balady platform offers an electronic service enabling users to obtain renovation permits to restore buildings.
Further details about the specifics of Revie’s investment or its technology/customer experience focus were not found in the available sources as of August 2025. Direct corporate disclosures or press releases from Revie or its investors would be needed to obtain that information.
The investment in Revie will be utilized to further enhance the platform's technology, aiming to streamline the renovation process more efficiently. This integration of technology in renovation processes is becoming a trend in Riyadh's real estate market, with platforms like Balady offering digital services to facilitate permit acquisitions for building restorations.
