Egyptian artificial intelligence expert and entrepreneur Omar Maher is the co-founder and CEO of Monta AI, a company specializing in enterprise AI solutions.

Founded in 2024, Monta AI develops advanced systems that help companies improve performance through artificial intelligence. The firm builds tools based on large language models (LLMs) and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) to drive measurable business growth.

The startup offers an AI assistant capable of processing sensitive corporate data in multilingual environments, including Arabic, and under strict local regulations. It also provides voice solutions for digital assistants and contact centers, designed to handle complex contexts.

Monta AI is also developing “Custom Agentic Solutions,” AI-driven agents that can reason, plan, and act to achieve defined goals. These agents integrate with a company’s internal tools, automate complex workflows, and deliver measurable outcomes. The firm also provides AI consulting, supporting organizations from initial assessment to implementation and optimization.

Before founding Monta AI, Maher co-founded Trustious in 2012, a platform that helped consumers make informed purchasing decisions through reliable product and service reviews. In 2014, he launched Homna.com, an online furniture marketplace in Egypt.

He holds a degree in business informatics from the German University in Cairo (2009). In 2015, he joined ITWORX, an Egyptian firm specializing in AI, digital transformation, and cloud solutions, where he served as product director and later as global head of advanced analytics and big data development.

From 2016 to 2022, Maher worked at Esri, a global provider of geographic information and geospatial intelligence software, where he held roles including business development manager, AI and machine learning practice lead, and director of AI. Between 2022 and 2023, he served as product marketing director at Parallel Domain, a company specializing in AI data generation.
