Autobia raises $12M Series A for Saudi B2B autotech

Saudi B2B autotech startup Autobia has raised $12 million (SAR 45 million) in a Series A round led by Artal Capital. The funding brings the company’s total capital raised to an undisclosed amount, according to Wamda.

Autobia’s platform connects fleet operators, workshops, and parts suppliers across Saudi Arabia, aiming to streamline procurement and maintenance workflows. The capital will be used to expand the company’s footprint within the kingdom and potentially into neighboring markets.

The round follows a string of funding announcements in Saudi Arabia’s logistics and transport tech space. Earlier this year, a local logistics startup secured a significant Series A, backed by prominent investors, as it planned regional expansion. While Autobia’s raise is smaller than some recent global mobility deals, it reflects sustained interest in Saudi Arabia’s enterprise tech ecosystem.

Artal Capital’s participation marks one of the firm’s disclosed investments, which has historically focused on other sectors. For Autobia, the challenge will be scaling its marketplace model in a fragmented industry while competing with both local players and global procurement platforms. Observers will watch whether the company can convert its funding into operational traction beyond Saudi Arabia’s borders.
