Pet health insurance platform and digital vet tools across Europe
Santévet is Europe's largest pet insurance operator, spanning six countries with 540+ employees and three consumer brands (Santévet, Bulle Bleue, Jim & Joe) plus a suite of vet-facing digital products acquired through Digivet Group. The stack reveals a data-driven operation: Python + PyTorch + TensorFlow + scikit-learn for pricing and underwriting, Amplitude for behavioral analytics, Salesforce for broker/partner management, and RAG + Claude for emerging AI applications. Hiring skews heavily toward sales (14 roles) and support (10), with lean engineering (2), signaling a scaling phase focused on distribution and customer retention rather than platform expansion.
Notable leadership hires: Tech Lead
Santévet Group operates pet health insurance across France, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Italy, and the UK, positioning itself as the continent's market leader. The business model encompasses direct-to-consumer insurance through three brands, broker/partner channels (evidenced by broker performance dashboards and partner onboarding projects), and a parallel B2B vertical serving veterinary practices with digital tools (Bourgelat, Vétocom, Canopia-Vet). Recent acquisition of Tedaisy (October 2025) signals expansion into the UK market. Core pain points cluster around unit economics (conversion rates, churn, price optimization) and operational friction (agent cognitive load, first-contact resolution), indicating growth is bumping against underwriting and claims efficiency constraints.
Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, and scikit-learn drive pricing and ML models. Amplitude powers behavioral analytics and customer tracking. Salesforce manages broker and partner relationships.
Santévet acquired Tedaisy (UK pet insurance company) as majority shareholder in October 2025 and actively hires across six countries: France, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Italy, and the United Kingdom.
