Modellium

What Modellium does

Modellium is a privately held Quebec-based software company founded in 1997 by Ossama, originally developing municipal property assessment software. In 2018, with the addition of Adam Kettani (Ossama's son) to the company, Modellium broadened its scope into connected-city technologies and launched the V+ Portail Citoyen (V+ Citizen Portal), a unified digital citizen engagement platform that combines a municipal website, mobile application, and a suite of communication, request, permit, and participation modules. The company's second core product, G+ Évaluation Municipale (G+ Municipal Assessment), remains an all-in-one solution for municipal property evaluation processes and reflects the company's original domain expertise.

Modellium serves a single vertical: municipalities and cities, almost exclusively in Quebec, Canada. The platform architecture is a core (V+ Citizen Portal or G+ Assessment) plus add-on modules model, with modules for Mass Communication, Citizen Requests, Internal Requests, Permit Management, Citizen Participation, and an upcoming Activities and Leisure module. The company has accumulated over 135 municipal clients and 140K+ active platform users, supported by a lean team of 11-50 employees. Technical integrations are minimal and limited to Google Analytics for usage tracking and Facebook OAuth for automated social publishing; there are no disclosed AI/ML capabilities, APIs, or SDKs.

Modellium monetizes through recurring software subscriptions sold on a quote-based, annual billing model with no publicly disclosed pricing. Go-to-market is enterprise direct sales to municipal governments, primarily driven by personalized 30-minute demonstrations requested through the company website, supplemented by a bilingual knowledge base of 45+ articles, webinars, brochures, and a help center. The company has no disclosed external funding, no institutional investors, no M&A activity, and no partnerships, operating as a bootstrapped, founder-led business with generational continuity at the leadership level.
