About
A starling never flies alone.
Zarzur means starling. In a murmuration, thousands of starlings move as one because each bird watches the few around it. That is how traffic should work too.
01 · Who we are
Tangent Star, Erbil.
Zarzur is built by Tangent Star, a technology company in Erbil. We are engineers, designers and drivers who spend too much of our lives on the 100m road.
Iraqi drivers deserve a navigation app that speaks their language, knows their landmarks, warns them about the water under the bridge and keeps their data close to home. So we are building one.
02 · What we believe
Calm beats clever
Big type, few buttons, nothing that pulls your eyes off the road.
Three languages from day one
Arabic, Kurdish and English, each laid out properly, not translated as an afterthought.
Open map, our own work
Built on OpenStreetMap and improved every day by Zarzur drivers and editors.
Data stays close
Hosted in the region, aggregated early, deleted on schedule.
