A Plaith lab product
Ishara.
A daily market signal for GCC deal teams. Shaped to the companies you are tracking, delivered as a brief, not a dashboard.
The signal arrives late because it arrives in the wrong shape.
A deal lead gets paid to anticipate the next move, and spends mornings scraping LinkedIn, press releases and three different data terminals.
Dashboards keep adding filters. Nobody opens them before 10:00.
The important signal (a hire, a filing, a line in Arabic trade press) arrives the same day it stops being useful.
A brief that reads in two minutes and holds up in the committee.
Shape
Email brief, not a dashboard
Readable in a lift. Forwardable to the committee.
Timing
06:00 GST, every working day
In your inbox before the first meeting.
Fit
Shaped to the deal
Tuned to the companies, sectors and executives you are tracking.
Depth
Links to the source behind every line
The filing, the job post, the article. No black box.
Three signals, read every day.
Each line of the brief is traceable. Click into the filing, the job post or the article behind it.
Public filings
ADGM, DIFC and regional registries. Director changes, share transfers, new entities. The paper trail before a deal is announced.
Hiring data
New openings and senior appointments across the companies you are tracking. The clearest leading indicator of where a business is spending next.
Trade press and crisis
Arabic and English sector press, plus crisis signal: product recalls, enforcement actions, delisting events. Flagged with context, not just a headline.
Built for teams that trade on timing.
Deal teams
The brief that gives a corporate development lead the first-look on a hire, a filing or a competitor's move in the GCC.
Strategy and executive offices
The daily read on the sector that lands before the 09:00 standup.
Investors and advisers
A compact view of movement across a watchlist, shaped to the companies and sectors in scope.
Questions people ask before they try it.
- Is this another newsfeed?
- No. Ishara filters by the companies, sectors and people you are tracking, and only ships what is new since the last brief.
- Where does the data come from?
- Public registries in ADGM and DIFC, regional company registries, hiring platforms, Arabic and English trade press, and public regulatory enforcement feeds. Every line links to the source.
- Can I share the brief with my team?
- Yes. It is designed to forward. Seats scale by named user, not by seat tiers.
- What does it cost?
- Flat monthly, billed per watchlist. Current pricing and a trial on isharatoday.com.
