Dosy is a women-focused mobility platform operating in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. It provides ride-hailing services designed to improve transportation access and safety for women passengers. The company was co-founded by Nouran Farouk and Menna Farouk.[1]

History

Dosy was founded by Nouran Farouk and Menna Farouk in response to challenges faced by women in accessing safe and reliable transportation in the MENA region.[2] The platform was developed as a technology-enabled mobility service focused on addressing gaps in urban transportation for women.

The concept emerged in the context of broader concerns about safety, affordability, and accessibility in transport systems across several cities in the region.[3]

Services

Dosy operates a mobile application that connects passengers with drivers for on-demand transportation services. The platform primarily serves women users and is focused on urban mobility solutions.[4]

Through the application, users can request rides and be matched with available drivers in their area. The service follows a ride-hailing model similar to other digital mobility platforms.

Operations

Dosy operates in Egypt and selected cities within the MENA region.[5] The company focuses on improving mobility access for women in urban environments where transportation safety and availability are key concerns.

Context

Women’s mobility in parts of the MENA region has been influenced by safety concerns, cultural factors, and limitations in public transportation systems.[6] In response, several mobility-focused startups and initiatives have emerged to address these challenges through technology-driven solutions.

Reception

Dosy has been referenced in media coverage related to women’s mobility, transport accessibility, and ride-hailing services in the MENA region.[7]
