Social platforms continue to evolve beyond content feeds. People now seek real world connection. Declic aims to meet this demand. The Saudi based AI social platform has raised $1 million in Seed funding to expand its event discovery and ticketing platform across the Gulf.

VidMatic Digital DMCC led the round. The funding will support product development and regional growth. Declic plans to scale as demand rises for tools that turn digital engagement into real experiences.

A Platform Built Around Events and Communities

Declic launched in 2024. Dr. Alice Othmani, Pritish Pragbati, and Paul K. founded the company. The team built the platform to unite event discovery, ticketing, and community tools in one place.

The platform helps users connect through shared interests. It supports both physical and virtual events. Organizers gain tools to create, promote, and manage events with ease.

Declic focuses on:

  • Event discovery based on interests
  • Integrated ticket purchasing
  • Community creation and engagement
  • Tools for organizers and hosts

The goal is simple. Help people meet. Help communities grow.

AI as the Core Social Layer

Declic uses artificial intelligence at the platform core. AI powers recommendations and audience matching. Users see events that fit their interests. Organizers reach people more likely to attend.

The platform reduces noise and friction. It replaces endless scrolling with purpose driven discovery. This approach responds to a shift in user behavior. People want action, not just content.

Declic positions itself between social networking and real world participation. This space continues to gain momentum across global platforms.

Monetisation Linked to Engagement

Declic ties revenue to platform activity. The company earns through premium subscriptions and ticket sales. This model rewards participation and value creation.

Revenue streams include:

  • Paid subscriptions for advanced features
  • Ticket sales for events
  • Tools that support event visibility

This structure aligns Declic with its users. When communities succeed, the platform grows. Organizers benefit from higher turnout. Users gain better experiences.

Expanding From North Africa to the Gulf

Declic currently operates in Tunisia and Morocco. The company plans to enter GCC markets next. Saudi Arabia will anchor this expansion.

The new capital will support:

  • Market entry across Gulf countries
  • Local partnerships and onboarding
  • Product localization and scaling

The Gulf offers strong demand for events, culture, and community platforms. Rising digital adoption supports this growth.

A Cross Regional Community Vision

Declic aims to build more than a local app. The company wants a cross regional platform that connects communities across MENA. Events serve as the foundation.

The founders believe digital tools should support meaningful interaction. Declic blends online discovery with offline connection. The platform reflects a broader shift toward social experiences with purpose.

With fresh capital and clear focus, Declic now prepares for its next phase. The company seeks to redefine how people find events, join communities, and connect across borders.
