Hi everyone! 👋 I’m Ani, and this is the story behind IsDubaiWorthIt.com. Like many people in India, UAE, and beyond, I kept seeing the same question everywhere : “Is my Dubai offer really worth it?”15k? 18k? 20k? No one had a real answer. And most cost-of-living calculators were either outdated, too generic, or didn’t reflect real Dubai life. A few weeks ago, I decided to build something small for myself and a few friends who were evaluating roles in Dubai. I wanted something simple, honest, and personalised, something that gave clarity instead of confusion. I launched a tiny MVP; and to my shock, it spread across Reddit and crossed 1,000 users in a single day. That’s when I realised this was a much bigger problem than I thought. The real pain wasn’t cost-of-living. The real pain was offer clarity — people genuinely don’t know whether a Dubai offer is good, bad, or risky based on their situation. As the early feedback came in, the project evolved rapidly. People pointed out nuances I never considered: • Area-wise rent differences • Partner income + household dynamics • Cab vs metro behaviour • Cooking vs ordering out • School fees showing even when there are no kids • Net vs gross salary misunderstandings • International City giving unrealistically high totals • Demand for realistic expense ranges, not exact numbers Every comment shaped the tool. Every user suggestion turned into a feature. And the accuracy improved because of the community, not just me. Today, IsDubaiWorthIt.com has evolved from a simple idea into a transparent, user-driven Dubai Offer Evaluator, built to help anyone understand whether their move truly makes sense for their life, income, and lifestyle. This is still early. Still improving. Still learning. But it feels meaningful because it’s being built with the people who need it the most. Thanks for checking it out, I’d love to hear your thoughts and continue evolving it alongside the community. 🙏🔥
