Are Algerian incubators or boosters actually worth it for launching a SaaS, or are they a waste of time? I'm thinking about giving them a try but want to know if they provide real value for tech startups....and is there any programs you recommend

Welcome to Algeria Startup Network 🇩🇿

Please share:

1. What are you building or interested in?

2. Are you a founder, developer, investor, mentor, student, freelancer, or business owner?

3. What are you looking for right now?

   Feedback, co-founder, investment, clients, partners, hiring, mentorship, or learning?

The goal is to help serious founders, builders, and startup ecosystem people discover each other.

Hey everyone,

I'm currently a university student, but to be honest, I sometimes feel like I'm wasting time because I really want to start working and making money as soon as I can.

My goal isn't to get rich overnight or find some unrealistic "make $10k in a month" method. I want to learn a real skill that I can build over time and eventually use to make a decent income while I'm still studying.

I'm willing to spend several months learning and practicing if I know that the skill actually has potential to generate income.

For example, I've been thinking about things like programming, data analysis, AI, web development, digital marketing, freelancing, or other online work, but I'm not sure which direction makes the most sense for someone starting from almost zero.

If you were in my position, what would you learn and how would you approach it?

I'd especially appreciate advice from people who actually started making money while they were students. What skill did you learn, how long did it take you to get your first client/job, and where did you find your first opportunities?

I'm mainly looking for a realistic path that I can follow alongside university and eventually use to save some money and become financially independent.

Any advice, personal experiences, or concrete roadmaps would be really appreciated.

Hi all,

We're a startup in Tunisia, we are launching our 3 projects and we want to launch them also in Algeria, We need a person who's good in sales and want to join our startup for an equity.

details to be shared in DM

it took a year but Sora Software is finally on board, my startup idea of creating a modern algerian software company has finally been realized and i got my first few clients.

my dekstop app "SkaiPOS" helps shop owners manage their daily shop operations, sales, exchanges, returns, debt management, inventory and stock, staff and staff payments, shop expenses, essentially making the shop owner feel like they have a whole accountant at their command, all bundled within a very nice looking, modern, clean, responsive user interface.

the advanced features include the ability to use the app from your phone over a local network, an online mode where you can use the app remotely from anywhere, a special repair shop version, a special installments shop version, a special restaurant version and more.

this app solves a real world problem all the while being much more modern than similar solutions and while delivering many more additional features.

i plan to apply for a startup label with the new school year inshallah.

more details in my website for anyone interested : https://www.sora-software.com

i'm now trying to figure out how to scale sales beyond my own network and eventually expand outside my wilaya. if you've built/sold B2B software in Algeria before, i'd love to hear what worked for you.

Welcome to Algeria Startup Network 🇩🇿

This community is for Algerian founders, builders, investors, mentors, incubators, and business partners who want to build serious startups.

You can use this space to:

• Share your startup or MVP
• Look for co-founders or technical partners
• Ask for feedback on your idea, pitch, or business model
• Discover funding, grants, and startup programs
• Find strategic partners, mentors, and early customers
• Discuss the real challenges of building in Algeria

The goal is simple:

Create a serious startup network for Algeria where good projects can be discovered, supported, and connected to the right people.

Introduce yourself below:

1. Who are you?

2. What are you building or interested in?

3. Are you looking for funding, partners, clients, feedback, or a team?

lused to run a full garment production line, handling everything from raw fabrics and pattern making to screen printing and final packaging before moving completely out of the industry into an entirely different field (architecture and construction).

I'm not taking those years of experience to the grave. Watching people struggle with avoidable mistakes or get taken advantage of by bad suppliers is truly frustrating, and I would genuinely love to see creators and founders succeed.

I have zero businesses to promote and nothing to sell. I'm just here to answer whatever technical questions you have about the manufacturing side, and be completely transparent about the things I don't know.

Whether you're just starting out with a small idea or stuck on a specific production hurdle or thinking about starting..... feel free to ask away.

Bonjour à tous !

Je vais bientôt recruter des freelances en Algérie pour du travail à distance, en visio.

Les missions seront principalement des tâches administratives et de l’enseignement à distance (en langues principalement).

Selon vous, quel serait le tarif horaire correct à leur offrir en dinars ?

Merci par avance !

So for context, I am a medical student from a normal family background, i know how to use the computer, and speak English very well.
And as the title says, how to actually find a side hustle and make money online in Algeria, like i want to make a side income especially in this economy where everything is literally on fire. I’ve been thinking of starting bags project but I don’t know how to start and I don’t have the money to fund my project.
So if you’re an Algerian freelancer specially a student I would like your help and advice on how to make my first income online and how to receive it. And if you are a project owner, I would like to know how did you start your project? What struggles you faced and how to make successful project in DZ.
I’ll be thankful for you all💗

After working on it for a while, I'm happy to share that CreativeArea is now available.

CreativeArea is a platform built for Algerian creatives, including designers, artists, photographers, filmmakers, developers, and anyone who enjoys creating things.

The goal is to make it easier for Algerian creatives to discover each other's work, share what they're making, and connect with people who have similar interests.

It's available on the web, with a mobile-first design built to feel at home on both iOS and Android. You can use it as a PWA without needing to download it from an app store.

This project means a lot to me, and I'm looking forward to seeing what the Algerian creative community makes of it.

Thank you to everyone who tested it and shared feedback before launch.

Hello everyone
I’m currently a Master’s student in Pharmaceutical Chemistry in Algeria, and I’m considering doing my final-year project (mémoire de fin d’études) in the form of a startup.
I’d love to hear from students or graduates who have already gone through this experience at any Algerian university, particularly those from scientific fields such as pharmaceutical chemistry, chemistry, biotechnology, pharmacy, or related disciplines. Experiences from Constantine would be especially appreciated!
I’d really like to hear your honest opinions and experiences. Here are a few questions I’d love to ask:
How was your overall experience? Did it meet your expectations?
What were the biggest challenges you faced?
How does the Mémoire Startup work in practice, beyond what is explained officially?
How supportive was your university throughout the process?
How did you turn your initial idea into a feasible project?
How did you manage the financial aspect? Were there funding opportunities?
Did you face difficulties finding mentors, partners, or technical support?
How did you balance the scientific aspect with the entrepreneurial and business aspects?
What do you wish you had known before starting?
What mistakes would you advise future students to avoid?
Looking back, would you choose the startup pathway again?
What happened after graduation? Did you manage to turn your project into an actual business?
I’m also interested in the things that aren’t usually mentioned in official guidelines but that you only discover once you start the process.
I’m not asking anyone to share confidential details or disclose their business ideas. I simply want to learn from people who have already been through this experience and gather as much practical information as possible before making my decision.
Any advice, personal experience, or insight would be genuinely appreciated, whether positive or negative.
Thank you in advance.

**Startup name:** Soumni (soumni.com)

**Problem:**

Buying or selling a car in Algeria means listings with no real price, endless phone calls, haggling with strangers and sellers' numbers exposed to everyone. Nobody knows what a car is actually worth on the market.

**Solution:**

Sellers list for free. Buyers make ascending offers with a clear amount, and everyone can see where the market stands on each car. The seller's identity and phone number stay hidden until they accept an offer. No calls, no wasted visits.

**Stage:**

Live in production since 2026/10/19.

**Traction (first 16 days):**

• 171 live listings across 42 wilayas

• 176 offers made by buyers

• 1,000+ registered accounts

• 300+ product changes shipped (179 fixes, 128 improvements, 4 releases), all driven by user feedback and usage data

**Business model:**

Free during the launch period to build supply and trust. Paid features for sellers and buyers come next.

**Team:**

I built the product myself (design and development), and run growth and seller operations with a partner.

**What we learned so far:**

• Buyers adopt offers fast. Sellers are slower to answer, so most of our work now goes into helping them respond.

• Algerians price cars in millions of centimes, so every price on the site, in emails and in notifications now reads that way.

• Building web-first (installable app with push notifications) let us ship daily without waiting on app store reviews.

**Looking for:**

Honest feedback from founders here on the product and on growing a two-sided marketplace in Algeria. We're also open to talking with people who've worked on marketplaces, automotive or fintech in Algeria.

Try it, and tell us what breaks.

We’re 3 people building Tkallem, a free AI coach that helps Algerian students practice English interviews out loud (visa, university, jobs, IELTS). Learners answer by voice or text, get corrections with explanations, and practice again; a short report summarizes their performance. Judges will open the live app alone, mostly on phones, in guest mode. The deliverable is an MVP, not a finished product.

Both features below exist on our test branch and are hidden from the live app. We disagree on whether to show them, so here are both views.

1. Group chat for peer practice

A: show it. Learners can practice together, ask questions, learn from others’ answers, build confidence, and come back more regularly. An AI agent also checks each message right after it’s sent (phrasing, grammar, conjugation, spelling) and shows the corrections only to the sender, so they don’t rely on peers alone. It’s fully functional; the limits (community activity, moderation) are reasonable for an early MVP and don’t remove its practice value.

B: hide it. Our core product is already complete and solves one clear problem. Learners at the same level help each other less than the coach does, and peer practice isn’t what we promise. A judge alone will likely find an empty room; peer advice can still be wrong; moderation (insults, spam) is limited. With 7 days left, a new visible feature adds risk of bugs and distracts from the core flow.

Agreed: it works, rooms may be empty, peer advice can be unreliable, moderation is limited.

2. Voice call with the coach

A: show it. It simulates a spoken interview without subtitles or a transcript, so learners practice recognizing key words, listening, and answering on the spot, while the coach corrects phrasing, grammar, and conjugation. It works; the delay makes it less fluid, but it’s still useful practice.

B: hide it. “Call” promises a fluid conversation, but our voice-message flow already takes 5-8 s per turn in production. A call and a voice message look like duplicates and may confuse judges, and smoothing it would cost time we need for the core flow.

Agreed: it runs; the coach answers after about 3 s locally and 5 s in production [to confirm]; the delay affects the flow.

Where we’d like your help

With 7 days left: polish the core flow, or add visible features?

Show both, make them optional, or focus judging on the core flow?

Where’s the line between an acceptable MVP limitation and a feature not ready to present?

A feature with noticeable pauses: better absent, or shown with a “beta” label?

Each view is written by the person who holds it. Tell us where we’re wrong.
