Aurum

Live gold and silver prices, localised for Oman

A real-time bullion price tracker that converts international gold and silver spot rates into Omani Rial, US Dollar and Euro across every karat and local weight unit — updating within seconds during market hours.

The problem

Gold and silver are quoted internationally in XAU/XAG per troy ounce, but buyers and jewellery traders in Oman think in rials per gram, tola and ten-tola, across 24K, 22K, 21K and 18K. Bridging that gap usually means stale numbers and manual conversions — useless when spot prices move every second.

Our approach

  • 01

    Streamed live international spot prices and exchange rates over WebSockets, so the displayed rate reflects the market within seconds rather than on a page refresh.

  • 02

    Built a conversion engine that maps XAU/XAG per ounce to local reality — every karat, every weight unit (gram, tola, ten-tola, ounce, kilo) and three currencies (OMR, USD, EUR) — from a single source of truth.

  • 03

    Designed a fast, data-dense dashboard with intraday charts and clear price cards that stays legible on a phone, where most buyers check it.

  • 04

    Engineered SEO around real local intent — the page ranks for live 'gold price today in Oman' queries with the current rate rendered in the title and metadata.

Outcomes

  • Real-time

    Spot prices and conversions refresh within seconds during market hours.

  • Local by default

    Every karat and weight unit in OMR, USD and EUR — no manual math.

  • Built for mobile

    Data-dense yet fast and legible on the phone, where buyers check it.
