What Padoa does

Padoa is a French-headquartered B2B SaaS company that provides an occupational health management platform to France's SPSTI and SPSTA services (inter-company and autonomous occupational health and prevention services), as well as the member companies and employees they serve. Founded in 2016 by Cédric Mathorel and headquartered in Paris at 33 Avenue de Wagram, the company operates additional offices in Berlin and Munich to support European expansion. Its platform is used to monitor approximately 9 million employees across the customer base, with named mid-market customers including Prevaly, AST (Action Santé Travail), Odalia, APST18, and SIST Narbonne.

The core platform is a cloud-based application built on Angular, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Kubernetes, organized as a modular ecosystem. The core Padoa Platform handles medical visit management, employee follow-up, and member company administration, surrounded by add-on modules including Noa (Document Unique workplace risk assessment generator), Pré-visit Connectée (employee pre-visit questionnaire), Member Portal, Appli Terrain (offline field mobile app), Statistical Tools with native Power BI and Excel integrations, CRM and Tickets Adhérents, and a Qualiopi-certified training program. AI is applied in narrow, well-defined ways — most notably AI-powered thesaurus suggestions that enforce consistent structured data entry, and automated dossier population from pre-visit questionnaire responses. The platform holds triple certification (HDS health data hosting, ISO 27001, ISO 27701) and is designed specifically for French occupational health regulatory and certification workflows.

Padoa generates revenue through annual subscription SaaS licenses sold via an enterprise field sales motion, with quote-based pricing tailored to each SPST customer's size and needs. Pricing includes software access, deployment support, Qualiopi-certified training, and ongoing customer success. The company has raised approximately €108M cumulatively across a 2016 seed and 2018 round led by Kamet and a February 2022 €80M round led by Rothschild & Co that combined a Series A with an LBO structure. With 350+ employees (more than half in Tech and R&D), Padoa positions itself as a market leader in French occupational health software and is actively extending into Germany through Padoa GmbH.

Scale indicators4 records

Recent moves8 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• Cegedim: Major French health-tech and HR software group with historical presence in occupational health and electronic medical records; competes broadly for SPSTI software spend and could expand modules to challenge Padoa.
• Doctolib: Dominant French health-tech platform for appointment booking and practice management; same national health-tech DNA, target customers (healthcare professionals), and talent pool, and is referenced as the model for Padoa's positioning.
• Maincare Solutions: French health IT vendor serving hospitals and regional care networks with EHR and population health solutions; comparable buyer-side footprint in French healthcare digital infrastructure.
• Softway Medical: French healthcare IT vendor offering EHR, RIS, and workflow software to hospitals and clinics; comparable in scale, customer type, and regulatory-heavy GTM in the French health-IT market.
• Evolucare: French health IT group with EHR and care-coordination software for hospitals and medico-social facilities; comparable vertical-specialist health-IT profile serving French regulated customers.
• Dedalus: European healthcare IT vendor with deep footprint across France, Germany, and Italy in clinical and diagnostic software; particularly relevant for Padoa's German expansion thesis.

Direct peers

• Cegedim Santé (RM Ingénierie / Crossway): Subsidiary offering practice management software for French healthcare professionals including occupational health doctors; the most direct vertical competitor in French SPST software.
• Weli: French occupational health software vendor targeting SPSTI services with comparable workflow, member management, and medical visit modules — a direct niche competitor.

Emerging players

• Medinjob / Mediserv: Smaller French occupational health and employee health-monitoring software providers competing for the same SPSTI customers on digitization and workflow automation.
• Qare: French telehealth and digital health platform extending into employee/occupational health use cases; overlaps with Padoa on employee-facing health engagement and employer relationships.
