Case Study: Careem achieves faster, more reliable mobile releases and saves thousands of developer hours with Bitrise

How Careem improves people's lives using Bitrise

Careem, the ride‑hailing unicorn serving 100+ cities across the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia with about 3,000 employees and 70+ developers, faced major scaling challenges: rapid growth was outpacing their app development processes and they lacked the automation needed to avoid regressions. To enable faster, more confident releases they adopted Bitrise’s mobile‑focused CI/CD platform to standardize builds, tests, and deployments.

Using Bitrise, Careem links every new project to automated workflows—running nightly QA deployments, caching Carthage dependencies, using Script and Xcode Build steps, and enforcing Bitrise for App Store releases while offloading Xcode version management. The result: ten apps across four mobile products, an uncountable number of weekly builds, and "thousands of hours" of developer time saved, giving teams greater confidence and faster delivery thanks to Bitrise.
