DIWAN AL-HAY · ديوان الحيFollow a mother, a child and the people who bring Diwan to life. One neighbourhood. One shared day.
Arabic narration · English subtitles · 3:48 · Full HD. Illustrative scenes and fictional personas of the proposed ALAROUS pilot; the app is a demonstration; later spaces depend on pilot success and resident demand.
Download the filmThe proposed location is the western Zone B park in ALAROUS 1A, between the mosque and community facility.
The proposed site sits between the mosque and community facility in the user-selected park.
4,226.75 m² park boundary calculated from the supplied KMZ. This is a location reference, not a surveyed land entitlement.
180–220 m² Phase 1 site target, including the core, shade and circulation. The park is planned / under construction, with municipal handover planned or completed.
Masterplan reference supplied by the user. Confirm the park delivery date, concession boundary, utility connection points and responsibilities before committing construction funds. No whole-park construction is included in the pilot allowance.

Phases 2 and 3 are subject to demonstrated demand and successful pilot results.
المرحلتان الثانية والثالثة مشروطتان بإثبات الطلب ونجاح المشروع التجريبي.
Illustrative booking windows, not confirmed bookings. The media provider handles sound checks and file handover; the kitchen instructor leads food preparation and hygiene. The host manages access and the cleaner handles scheduled resets. Simultaneous sessions need dedicated providers; the host cannot supervise three rooms alone. Kitchen capacity and food-use approval remain to be confirmed. Unbooked sessions stay closed; the timetable does not imply forecast utilisation or extra revenue.

Planning case from the 8 October 2026 business plan. No achieved operating results are implied.
عدد المقاعد × الجلسات × الإشغال × السعر × حصة ديوان
Reverse-calculated implied inventory from the rounded source revenue. The booking calendar and costed roster remain to be reconciled.
100% means the assumed occupancy levels below, not a full building. Reduce demand to test resilience.
Source: business plan pages 21–26. Figures are monthly planning assumptions.
| Activity / unit | Offered units | Places per unit | SAR price | Sold % | Diwan share | Retained SAR |
|---|
Implied monthly offered inventory: approximately 308 desk-days, 88 room-hours, 337 learning places and 447 fitness places. The meeting room is separate; learning and fitness replace coworking in the main hall.
Prices: coworking SAR 65/day; meeting SAR 75/hour; learning SAR 75 and fitness SAR 70 per attendance, with 30% retained by Diwan. Specialist prices, capacity and capital require separate validation.
Phase 1 follows the strongest survey priorities. Media and kitchen are optional business tests, not the survey ranking: cooking received one first-priority selection; no media first-priority selection is reported. Pre-sell specialist sessions or test hired facilities before purchasing either pod.
Approve an addition only when its own extra retained revenue covers its full extra operating cost, the next pod is priced, and repeat paid demand is demonstrated. Keep the core operating if an addition fails this test.
14 coworking places and a separate four-person meeting room. Learning and movement use the main hall at different times.

A neighbour becomes a teacher. A room becomes a workplace. A shared activity becomes a reason to return.
Diwan connects resident talent, bookable space and a managed daily programme.
AI-generated architectural atmosphere: the two-module ground-level pilot and shaded arrival. Inspired by ALAROUS; not a photograph of a built site or a measured design.
الفكرة ليست تأجير حاويات. الفكرة أن يجد سكان الحي مكاناً قريباً للعمل والتعلّم، وأن تجد مواهب الحي فرصة لتقديم نشاط مدفوع. نبدأ بتجربة صغيرة، ونقيس إن كان الناس يعودون وإن كان التشغيل يغطي تكلفته.
34 survey responses helped choose coworking, fitness and children’s activities. Paid use is the next test.
One managed place for work, learning and movement — with local providers earning from their skills.
The early questionnaire helps choose the first activities. The pilot must establish actual paid demand in ALAROUS.

Pay for the activity or time they use. No compulsory subscription in this pilot.
A room, booking support and a clear share of eligible activity sales.
A measurable way to activate neighbourhood space and learn which services residents will use repeatedly.
الاستبيان أعطانا الاتجاه، وليس إثبات الربحية. أولويات البداية هي العمل المشترك والرياضة وأنشطة الأطفال. الدليل الذي نريد بناءه هو الحجز المدفوع، وتكرار الزيارة، ودخل مقدم النشاط، وتكلفة التشغيل الفعلية.
One programme, one booking calendar, and a named person responsible for every reset.
Duty host checks bookings, access and room readiness. The provider checks equipment. Children require a named guardian and assigned safeguarding support.
Provider hands back the room. Host and cleaner reset furniture, inspect the WC, clear routes and release the next booking. Setup time cannot be sold twice.
Close bookings, reconcile receipts and provider shares, log issues and publish the next programme. Kitchen staff complete hygiene and temperature records.
Opening windows are illustrative, not a promise of 14-hour daily operation. The operator must price breaks, relief, supervision and management before offering slots. The base host allowance is SAR 4,000 per month; additional coverage is not assumed to be free.
Providers lead their own activities; media technical support and the kitchen provider cannot be supplied by the main hall host simultaneously. Safeguarding support and cleaning must be available at the relevant slots. If the paid roster cannot cover a slot, it must not be offered.
The interactive timetable illustrates possible dayparts; it is not the calendar basis of the submitted revenue forecast. Offered inventory and the paid roster must be reconciled before opening. Friday prayer closure is illustrative and must follow local timings. Market-day preparation replaces a kitchen demonstration, rather than adding a second sale in the same space.
Financial figures follow the submitted business plan and pitch. They are planning targets, not achieved operating results.
Construction is only one part of the funding request. Add final design and approvals, confirmed utility connections, pre-opening recruitment/training and launch costs, VAT cash timing where applicable, and an operating reserve.
These categories remain unquoted. Do not present the construction figure as the complete funding commitment. Operating cash shown above is before tax, finance, depreciation and replacement capital. The source documents quote about 19 months simple Phase 1 payback, conditional on their base forecast. It excludes ramp-up and is not validated by the revised layout.
Months 1–6: Core pilot. Gate 1 at month 6: ≥60% base demand for 8 weeks, 3 positive operating months, ≥30% 30-day repeat, provider supply and safe delivery.
Months 7–9: conditional media procurement. Months 10–15: Phase 2 operation. Gate 2 at month 15: ≥65% demand, 6 positive months, specialist demand, permissions route and next quotation.
Months 16–18: conditional kitchen delivery. Month 19 onward: Full Diwan, only after approval. Month 1 begins at opening; these are planning windows, not automatic capital releases.
Select the ALAROUS pilot, then release construction funds after site rights, complete pricing and an affordable operating rota are confirmed.

Pilot evidence dashboard · no actual operating data is connected. Targets and forecasts are not results.
Submitted Gate 1: at least 60% base demand for eight weeks, at least 30% 30-day repeat use, three consecutive positive EBITDA months and zero critical HSE issues. Gate 2: at least 65% demand, six positive EBITDA months and specialist-use evidence. Approve the measurement protocol before launch: recognised revenue excluding subsidies and one-off launches divided by the comparable approved activity plan, supported by service-level utilisation.
Demand percentages alone do not prove break-even. Require paid specialist evidence, a priced next pod, positive incremental operating cash, site/services approval and enough cash to fund the addition. Stop or redesign an addition that reduces cash generation.
