Serensia

What Serensia does

Serensia is a French software publisher founded in 2004 and headquartered in Paris, specializing in electronic invoice dematerialization and the automation of administrative and accounting processes. The company operates a unified platform combining a Plateforme Agréée (PA) — the only entity type empowered to transmit electronic invoices directly between businesses, extract VAT data, perform e-reporting to the French Tax Authority (DGFiP), and register in the national directory — and a Solution Compatible (SC) that handles format conversion (PDF, EDI, XML to UBL, CII, Factur-X), ERP integration, and compliant archiving (NF Z42-013). In December 2025 the PA received final DGFiP accreditation ahead of France's mandatory e-invoicing reform effective September 2026; the platform is also a certified PEPPOL Access Point enabling international exchanges across 42+ countries.

The platform is built on a single technological core that hosts PA and SC together, avoiding the need for dual integrations, with hyper-scalable architecture processing over 250 million invoices per year (target 500-600 million by 2028) at peaks of 100+ invoices per second. Supporting modules include a Reader (LAD/OCR) for automated extraction from unstructured invoices, an Analyzer for invoice data intelligence, and an integrated Payment module for working capital optimization. Serensia is ISO 27001 certified, SecNumCloud qualified (hosted by OVH in France), and GDPR compliant.

Serensia serves three primary customer segments: ETI and large enterprises (grands comptes) via direct field sales; software publishers via white-label OEM/gray-label licensing (partners include DEXT and CEGID); and experts-comptables (accounting firms and networks such as Cerfrance) via gray-label distribution. Named enterprise clients include TotalEnergies, EDF, ENGIE, BPCE, Orange, SFR, France Télévisions, RATP, Dalkia, CDC Habitat, Action Logement, VILOGIA, and APICIL. The revenue model combines subscription/recurring platform fees, usage-based transaction pricing on invoice volume, white-label OEM licensing royalties, and professional services for implementation. Following Quadient's acquisition in spring 2025 (joined the group June 2, 2025), Serensia operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Euronext Paris-listed intelligent automation platform.
