About Arcus

    Qatar-registered AI governance advisors, built for how business runs here.

    Arcus - from Latin, for precision, control and deliberate action. We turn invisible AI risk into a defensible, documented position under Qatar law.

    Doha runs on AI tools today - 85% of business owners here are expatriates using ChatGPT, Copilot and a dozen others daily. Almost none can answer one question: under Qatar law, are you protected? Arcus exists to answer it - fast, specifically, and in plain language.

    Why Arcus

    What makes the difference

    Why Doha businesses choose Arcus over traditional advisory and generic SaaS compliance tools.

    Built around Qatar's applicable laws

    Every audit maps your AI operations against PDPL, the Cybercrime Law, QFC DPR, the NCSA Framework, QCB AI Directives and more - with the specific article and penalty for each gap. Generic checklists don't survive a Qatar inspection.

    Up to 16 ready-to-use documents

    Most firms deliver a report and consider the job done. We deliver a report plus up to 16 operational documents your team can implement from day one - AI usage policy, approved tool list, incident response plan, risk register and more.

    Delivered in 48 hours

    Most advisory firms take weeks. We deliver your Risk Report within 48 hours of receiving your questionnaire. You have urgent exposure - you deserve a fast answer.

    Priced against the fine, not the hour

    From QAR 8,500 - 0.17% of the maximum PDPL fine, and less than a single hour with a QFC law firm. Comparable depth at a fraction of the cost, with no hidden fees.

    A partner, not a vendor

    Advanced engagements include a 6-month checkpoint. Your governance framework doesn't end when the report lands in your inbox - it starts there.

    Confidential by default

    We sign a mutual confidentiality agreement before every engagement. No finding is ever disclosed to any third party, including regulators. We have no obligation to report - and we never do.

    Our Methodology

    Structured, repeatable, defensible.

    Not ad-hoc consulting. A documented method that produces the same rigour every time.

    1

    We inventory every AI tool your team actually uses - including the shadow tools and browser extensions nobody declared.

    2

    We map each tool and data flow against Qatar's applicable laws, identifying the specific article and penalty for every gap.

    3

    We rank the risks by urgency and translate them into a prioritised action list any business leader can act on.

    4

    We hand you the operational documents to close the gaps - and, on Advanced, check back at 6 months to ensure nothing slipped.

    Serving Qatar-first - and cross-market clients under GDPR & the EU AI Act.

    The next move is yours

    Most businesses using AI are not compliant. Most never know until it's too late.

    Free - receive your personalised risk feedback in under 48 hours. The cost of finding out later: everything.
