What Simplifia does

Simplifia SAS is a privately held French SaaS company headquartered in Lyon that builds a 3-in-1 cloud platform for independent funeral homes. Founded around 2010, the company combines (i) a customizable funeral management software module that automates convoy planning, regulatory quote generation, and post-death administrative document preparation; (ii) a digital showcase — modern, SEO-optimized websites tailored for the funeral market and integrated with Google My Business; and (iii) a family services layer offering online tribute spaces (Espace Hommage), a secure family portal, post-death administrative assistance in two tiers (Tranquillité full-service and Liberté self-service), an integrated e-commerce flower shop fulfilled by the Agitateur Floral network, ceremony live-streaming, and a 13-inch digital display for funeral parlor entrances.

The platform is sold through a sales-led direct motion with personalized video demonstrations, no-obligation offers, and monthly billing, supplemented by the regional 'Simpli Tour' event series. Pricing is not publicly disclosed. Beyond subscription SaaS revenue, Simplifia monetizes through a 10% commission on flower bouquet sales routed through tribute spaces, memorial book printing and delivery, and managed Google Ads services under its Google Partner certification. Customers are predominantly independent SMB funeral directors in France, with case studies showing 30% time savings on family appointments, 90% reduction in errors and omissions, and hundreds of euros in incremental revenue per case from digital channels.

In November 2025, Simplifia was acquired by Capza-backed Simplifia and acquired Elektronik Printing, extending the company's footprint into the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) and bringing the combined platform to supporting over 210,000 bereaved families annually. The company also holds recognition including Appvizer National Leader and User Choice awards (2021), Pass French Tech status, Bpifrance Excellence, and Pépites Program membership, while participating in the Silver Alliance network for aging-well brands.
