UAE-based travel Seeru has raised a pre-seed funding round at an undisclosed amount, led by the US-based venture studio Nabtah Ventures to accelerate its product development and expand its global presence.
Co-founded by Abd Elmohaimen Mansi and Abdullah Mancy, Seeru is dedicated to eliminating the common hassles of travel planning. Through its parent platform, Seeru.ae, the company offers a one-stop solution for individual travelers, organizations, travel agencies, and meta-search companies, striving to transform the current travel ecosystem.
“Our mission at Seeru is to simplify travel planning for both retail and business segments, ensuring every journey is as enjoyable and efficient as possible,” stated Mansi, CEO of Seeru. “The partnership with Nabtah Ventures not only provides us with the necessary resources to accelerate our vision but also affirms the potential of our innovative solutions in the high-growth MENA region and beyond.”

Licensed by the Dubai Tourism and Economic Department, Seeru distinguishes itself by providing special flight deals across many routes, aggregating NDC content through a unified API, and facilitating travel experiences across three continents.
Seeru.ae has successfully launched three platforms to cater to its diverse clientele: seeru.com for direct traveler bookings, seeru.travel for B2B flight bookings, and SeeruX, offering developers easy API integration. Plans for further expansion include the launch of a dedicated Umrah platform in Q3 and a unique travel marketplace for explorers in Q4, reinforcing Seeru’s mission to empower travelers with the best travel planning experience.
Seeru aims to deliver unparalleled value for both individual (B2C) and corporate (B2B) clients. In particular, Seeru’s B2B services are tailored to meet the needs of global travel players and online travel agencies, providing them with direct access to comprehensive content and cutting-edge technology. “The current travel landscape demands a digital infrastructural transformation,” said Mancy, Seeru’s CTO. “Seeru is committed to delivering precisely that.”
Nabtah Ventures, known for its investment portfolio in disruptive startups across various sectors, including grocery, mobility, and marketplaces, sees Seeru as a valuable addition to its portfolio.
