SaaS founders
Validating Arabic readiness before committing a roadmap quarter to GCC expansion.
Arabic RTL Readiness Audit
Find what will break before your product reaches Arabic-speaking users.
A practical engineering and UX review for SaaS products, ecommerce stores, dashboards, mobile interfaces, and business platforms preparing for GCC and MENA markets.
The audit request goes to the same team that performs it — no sales layer in between.
What the audit checks
Every audit works through the same structured checklist, adapted to your product type and the flows that carry revenue or daily operations:
- Overall RTL layout behavior
- Component-level direction handling
- Navigation and icon direction
- Arabic typography and font loading
- Mixed Arabic and English content
- Forms and field alignment
- Validation messages
- Phone and address fields
- Dashboards and data tables
- Charts and visualizations
- Dates, currencies, and numbers
- Checkout and payment journeys
- Onboarding and authentication
- Mobile and tablet responsiveness
- Accessibility
- Localized metadata and SEO
- hreflang and canonical readiness
- Notification, email, and invoice layouts
- Technical localization architecture
- React/Next.js implementation risks
Who should request an audit
Product managers
Needing a prioritized, engineering-ready issue list instead of vague localization advice.
Ecommerce teams
Checking that catalog, checkout, and order flows will hold up for Arabic-speaking buyers.
Digital agencies
Getting an independent RTL review of a client product before or after delivery.
Localization managers
Separating translation issues from engineering issues with clear ownership.
Development teams
Wanting a concrete RTL defect list they can implement without RTL guesswork.
Companies expanding into GCC
Planning entry into the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, or Kuwait with a product built in English.
Teams with translated content but broken RTL UX
The words are Arabic, but the layout, forms, or checkout still behave like an English product.
Audit deliverables
You receive a working document your team can execute against — not a slide deck. The audit is an engineering review, not a legal, regulatory, or accessibility certification.

Audit process
1
Initial product review
We look at your product, markets, and goals to confirm the audit is the right fit.
2
Access and scope confirmation
We agree which flows, environments, and platforms are in scope and what access we need.
3
Desktop and mobile inspection
Hands-on review of the product in Arabic across screen sizes, browsers, and devices.
4
Arabic RTL engineering analysis
Component, layout, typography, and localization-architecture analysis, including React/Next.js implementation risks.
5
Prioritized report delivery
You receive the full report: blocking issues, quick wins, and an implementation roadmap.
6
Optional review call
A walkthrough with your team to answer questions and agree next steps.
Timeline
Most small and mid-sized product audits are completed within 3–7 business days after scope and access are confirmed. Larger products are estimated once we have seen the product size and the level of access available.
Pricing
Pricing is based on product size, number of key flows, and the level of technical access available. Request a scope review for a tailored quote.

Frequently asked questions
What access do you need?
For most audits, a staging or production URL and test accounts for the key user roles are enough. Source-code access deepens the localization-architecture findings but is not required to start.
Can you audit a live product without source-code access?
Yes. We can audit any reachable product from the outside — layout, flows, typography, forms, checkout, and metadata. Code-level findings (component architecture, locale routing, styling approach) are added when repository access is available.
Can you audit React, Next.js, or mobile applications?
Yes. React and Next.js products are our primary audit target, and we also review React Native and native mobile apps for RTL navigation, gestures, and typography behavior.
Do you translate the product content?
The audit reviews how your product handles Arabic content; it is not a translation service. If content translation is needed, we flag where and how it should be integrated, and translation can be scoped separately.
Is the audit only for visual RTL problems?
No. Visual issues are the surface. The audit also covers localization architecture, bidirectional text handling, forms and validation, checkout and payment journeys, metadata and hreflang readiness, and implementation risks in your framework.
Can our internal team implement the recommendations?
Yes — that is how the report is written: concrete issues with severity, location, and recommended fixes, so any competent web team can act on it without us.
Can softodeviq implement the fixes?
Yes. If you prefer not to route the work through your own team, we can follow the audit with an RTL Fix Sprint or a larger localization engagement.
How long does the audit take?
Most small and mid-sized product audits are completed within 3–7 business days after scope and access are confirmed. Larger products are scheduled based on the number of flows in scope.
Do you work under NDA?
Yes. We are used to reviewing pre-launch products and internal systems and can sign your NDA before receiving access.
Can agencies request an audit for a client product?
Yes. Agencies use the audit both as pre-delivery quality assurance and as a white-label service for their own clients. The report can be delivered under your brand arrangement.
