Hajj & Umrah Tech Challenge 2026 · Experience Technologies

Stay together.
Stay present.

A calm companion for Hajj and Umrah that gives you the right word, deed, and direction — exactly where and when it matters.

Action-ready guidance — never information overload.
The threshold where the journey begins
The problem

The guidance already exists. It just never arrives in a form you can use.

Millions arrive as first-timers, often without Arabic, into some of the densest crowds on earth — and meet their guidance as thick books and scattered apps, exactly when they can least use them.

01

Overload, wrong format

Pilgrims don't need more content. They need the next right action, in plain language, where it's relevant.

02

Groups get separated

Families and tour groups lose each other constantly. For a first-timer, being lost in a crowd is frightening and unsafe.

03

No trusted guide in the moment

Between language, stress, and unfamiliar rites, pilgrims lose the very focus the journey is meant to be about.

One companion, four pillars

Everything you need, surfaced at the right place and moment.

Contextual du'a

The right words, ready to say

Reach a station of the rites and Meeqat surfaces the recommended supplication for that spot — Arabic, transliteration, translation, source — with the Hijri calendar built in, so time-bound moments light up on their own.

Group togetherness

Keep your people close

Opt-in, group-scoped location sharing built for real conditions — dense crowds, weak signal, low battery. A leader or parent sees everyone on one map, without draining a phone.

One-tap SOS

Help, in a single tap

One tap shares a live pin and an “I need help” alert with your group instantly. In a crowd, the fastest help is the people you came with — built to reach official channels next.

Guided rites & planner

Know the next step

Each rite explained in plain language — grounded in scholar-reviewed sources, aware of differing schools of thought, routing real fiqh questions to vetted references. Plus a light planner for the places you want to visit.

Action-ready, not jargon.

Why Meeqat

Not another official app. The companion layer on top of it.

The official platform handles the paperwork of pilgrimage. Meeqat handles the presence — staying together, and knowing exactly what to do and say.

The official rails

Permits · bookings · routing

Nusuk and the official ecosystem manage the transactional layer of Hajj and Umrah. Essential, and not something to rebuild.

Meeqat · the companion layer

Presence · togetherness · guidance

The personal and spiritual layer that rides on top — contextual, trustworthy, and built to integrate with official infrastructure, never to duplicate it.
