How we work

One process, four steps

The same team carries you through all four — no handoff between a design shop, a marketing vendor and an automation contractor.

  1. Discover

    A working session on your business, your market and what "done" looks like — before anything is designed.

    A written scope and a fixed quote.

  2. Build

    Site, campaigns and automations built against that brief, with checkpoints so nothing arrives as a surprise.

    Preview links you can click at every checkpoint.

  3. Launch

    Ship live, verify tracking and handovers, and hand you the keys — not a rental.

    Source, hosting and accounts in your name.

  4. Grow

    Ongoing marketing and automation tuning once real traffic and data start coming in.

    Reporting read against the baseline we captured.

Our commitments

What we put in writing

Market Labs AI is a new studio, so we are not going to show you numbers you cannot check. These are the terms that go in the contract instead.

  • You own all of it

    Source code, hosting, domain and every account set up along the way, registered in your name and handed over at launch. Nothing is rented back to you.

  • One team, not three vendors

    The people who plan your marketing build your site and wire the automation behind it. No handoff, and nobody to trade blame when something breaks in between.

  • Fixed price, agreed up front

    Scope is set in a discovery call and quoted in writing before work starts. No open-ended hourly billing, and no change in the number once you have accepted it.

  • Automation you can undo

    Every automated action records its input and output, escalates to a person when the agent is unsure, and can be traced and reversed. Not a black box.

FAQ

Choose a service to see its questions

How much does a website cost in Qatar?

Website cost in Qatar depends on scope: a focused marketing site, a multi-language corporate site and a full e-commerce build are different projects with different budgets. Market Labs AI scopes the work in a discovery call, then quotes a fixed project price in writing before anything starts — not an open-ended hourly rate that grows during the build.

How long does it take to build a website?

Build time depends on scope and on how quickly content and approvals come back from your side. Market Labs AI sets the timeline during discovery and writes it into the proposal before work begins, with checkpoints along the way so progress stays visible rather than being reported at the end. A brochure site, an online store and a custom web app run to very different schedules.

Do I own my website and the code after it is built?

You do. Every site Market Labs AI builds is handed over with the keys — the source code, the hosting account, the domain and any third-party accounts set up along the way, all registered in your name. Nothing is rented back to you on a subscription you lose access to if you decide to leave.

Should I use WordPress, Shopify or a custom build?

It depends on who maintains the site after launch. Shopify suits product catalogues that need payments and inventory working out of the box. WordPress suits teams that publish often and want a familiar editor. A custom Astro build suits marketing sites where load speed and search performance matter most. Market Labs AI builds on all three and recommends based on your team, not a house preference.

Can you build an online store for a business in Qatar?

Yes. Market Labs AI builds online stores on Shopify and WooCommerce for businesses in Qatar — product catalogues, payment gateways, delivery options and right-to-left Arabic layouts. The store is wired into inventory and advertising so stock levels, product feeds and campaigns stay in sync rather than being updated by hand in three separate places.

Can you redesign an existing website instead of starting over?

Yes, and a redesign is often the faster route. The content, the accumulated search authority and the existing URL structure are already there, so the work concentrates on design, performance and conversion rather than rebuilding from an empty site. Market Labs AI audits what is worth keeping first, then rebuilds around it and preserves search rankings through the migration.

What happens after the site launches — do you maintain it?

Either way works. Every build ends with a handover: source code, hosting account, domain and any third-party accounts in your name, plus a walkthrough of editing the site yourself. Ongoing care — updates, backups, uptime monitoring, content changes — is offered afterwards as a separate arrangement you can start or stop at any point, because it is a service and not a condition of owning what you paid for.

How much does digital marketing cost in Qatar?

Digital marketing pricing in Qatar depends on which channels you run and how much of the work is ongoing rather than one-off. Market Labs AI scopes a written monthly plan — the specific technical fixes, content and campaigns it covers — and quotes against that instead of selling a generic retainer. You see what the month actually buys before committing to it.

How long does SEO take to show results?

SEO is slower than paid advertising and compounds instead. Technical fixes can move rankings within weeks; content and authority usually take months to show up in traffic and enquiries. Market Labs AI captures a measured baseline before work starts, so every later report reads against that starting point rather than against a screenshot of a good week.

Can you help my business show up on Google Maps in Doha?

Yes. Appearing in the Google map pack in Doha depends mostly on your Google Business Profile: a verified listing with accurate details, the right primary category, genuine customer reviews, and consistent name, address and phone information everywhere it appears online. Market Labs AI sets that up and maintains it alongside the local search signals on your website.

Do you run Google Ads and paid social, or only SEO?

Both, and as one budget rather than competing line items. Paid traffic proves quickly which messages convert, and the winners feed the organic content plan instead of being tested twice. Market Labs AI runs Google Ads and paid social alongside SEO, and recommends channels based on what your market actually searches for — not a fixed package sold to everyone.

What is included in a digital marketing engagement?

A Market Labs AI marketing engagement covers SEO, paid media, content and analytics from one plan rather than three vendors. In practice that means technical site fixes, keyword and content work, Google Ads or paid social where they earn their place, Google Business Profile and local search, and reporting that connects spend to actual enquiries.

How do you report on marketing performance?

Reports read against the baseline captured before work started, not against a screenshot of a good week. You get the metrics that map to business outcomes — enquiries, calls and qualified leads broken down by channel — alongside rankings and traffic, plus what changed this month and what is planned next. The underlying analytics accounts stay in your name.

Do we own our Google Ads account and analytics data?

You do. Google Ads, Analytics, Search Console, Tag Manager and the Google Business Profile are all created under your business, with Market Labs AI added as a user rather than as the owner. If the engagement ends, the spend history, conversion data and audiences stay with you — that historical data is the part of a marketing account that is genuinely hard to replace.

Is there a minimum contract for a marketing retainer?

No lock-in. Marketing is quoted month to month against a written plan of what that month covers, and you can stop at the end of any month. The honest caveat is that SEO and content compound rather than switch on, so stopping early usually means having paid for work whose results had not landed yet — a reason to be certain about scope before starting, not a reason to be tied in.

What is AI automation for a small business?

AI automation is software that handles a repetitive business task from start to finish — answering a common enquiry, qualifying a lead, routing a booking, moving data between tools — without someone doing it by hand every time. Market Labs AI scopes each automation to a single job, so it can be tested, measured and switched off on its own.

Can you build an AI chatbot for my business?

Yes. Market Labs AI builds AI chatbots and agents that answer enquiries, qualify leads and book appointments through your website, WhatsApp or email, around the clock. Each one works from your actual services and rules, hands over to a person when it is not confident rather than guessing, and logs every conversation so you can see exactly what it said.

How much does AI automation cost?

AI automation is priced per automation, not per seat. The cost depends on how many tasks you automate and how many systems each one has to connect to — a single enquiry responder is a far smaller project than a full lead-to-CRM pipeline. Market Labs AI scopes and quotes each automation separately, so you can start with one and add more later.

What is the difference between an AI agent and workflow automation?

A workflow automation follows fixed rules — when this happens, do that — and behaves identically every time. An AI agent interprets unstructured input, like a customer message written in their own words, and decides what should happen next. Most genuinely useful systems combine the two: the agent understands the request, and the workflow executes it reliably.

Will AI automation work with the tools we already use?

Usually, yes. Market Labs AI builds automations that connect the tools you already run rather than replacing them — existing CRMs, booking systems, WhatsApp, email and spreadsheets. Anything with an API can normally be wired in. Where a tool has no integration available, the automation works around it instead of forcing a migration you did not ask for.

What happens when the AI gets something wrong?

Every action is logged and reversible. Agents handle one job at a time and escalate to a person when they are not confident, so an error surfaces as a handover rather than as a silent wrong answer sent to a customer. Because each step records its input and output, any action can be traced and undone. It is not a black box.

Who owns the automations, and what happens if we stop working together?

You own them. Automations run on accounts in your business name — the AI provider, the automation platform, the CRM — and the logic, prompts and configuration are documented and handed over with the rest of the build. If the engagement ends, everything keeps running and another developer can pick it up. Nothing sits behind an agency account you lose access to.

Who maintains an automation once it is live?

You can, or we can. Every automation is documented and logs each step, so someone on your side can see exactly what it did and change it. Where an underlying tool changes its API or a business rule moves, that upkeep is quoted as a separate arrangement rather than assumed. Because each automation is scoped to one job, one of them breaking never takes the others down with it.

What is an AI creative studio?

An AI creative studio produces brand, video and image work using generative AI tools, with a person directing and editing the output. Market Labs AI uses it to make product videos, commercials, social creative and campaign imagery at a speed and volume a traditional shoot cannot match — without booking a crew, a studio or a shoot day.

Can AI-generated video be used in real advertising campaigns?

Yes, and it already is. The practical limits are about direction rather than technology: AI video works well for product films, social reels and concept-led commercials, and less well where a specific real person, location or fine product detail has to appear exactly as it is. Market Labs AI human-edits every deliverable before it ships.

How does AI video production compare in cost to a traditional shoot?

The saving comes from what you no longer book: crew, studio hire, talent day rates, equipment and travel. What remains is direction, generation and editing time, and that is where the cost sits. Market Labs AI quotes per deliverable, agreed in writing before production starts, so a single product film and a full campaign set are priced separately rather than bundled together.

Who owns the AI-generated images and video?

You own the finished creative. Market Labs AI hands over the final files, along with the source project where one exists, for use across your advertising, website and social channels. Usage rights on the underlying generation tools are checked per project, and anything carrying a restriction on commercial use is flagged before production starts, not after.

Will AI creative actually look on-brand, or generic?

On-brand, because the brand is an input rather than an afterthought. Generations are directed against your existing palette, typography, product photography and tone of voice, then human-edited to match. Generic AI output is what happens when a prompt is written with no brand behind it — the direction is the work, not the generation.

How long does a creative project take, and how many revisions are included?

Faster than a shoot, because there is no crew or studio day to schedule around — generation and editing happen on the same timeline as a review cycle. Market Labs AI scopes the turnaround and the number of revision rounds into the written quote before production starts, so both are agreed up front rather than negotiated once work is underway.

What do we need to provide — footage, photos, brand assets?

It depends on the piece. A brand identity project needs almost nothing from you beyond direction and existing brand references, if any. A product video or campaign set works best with real product photos or footage as reference, plus logo files, brand colours and fonts where they exist. Market Labs AI lists exactly what a given deliverable needs during scoping, so nothing is discovered mid-project.

Are there any restrictions on how we can use AI-generated creative?

Checked per project rather than assumed. Generation tools vary in what commercial use they permit, and Market Labs AI verifies the license on the specific tool used for each deliverable before production starts, not after you have paid for it. Anything that carries a use restriction — a limit on paid advertising, for instance — is flagged at scoping so it never becomes a surprise once the work is finished.

A sentence or two is plenty — what you need and roughly when.

Two things people ask first

Can we combine services, or do we have to buy them separately?
Combine them — that is the reason the four disciplines sit in one team. A single scoped build can cover the site, the marketing that drives traffic to it and the automation that handles the enquiries it produces, quoted as one project rather than three. You can also take any one on its own; nothing is bundled to force a bigger sale.
Do you only work with businesses in Doha?
Doha and Qatar are where Market Labs AI is based and where most current work is. The same web, marketing and automation scope applies to businesses elsewhere in the Gulf, and the work is delivered remotely either way. If you are outside Qatar, say so in your enquiry and we will confirm whether we can take it on.

Cost, timelines, ownership and what happens when something breaks are answered per service in the FAQ above.
