SAS Smart

What SAS Smart does

SAS Smart is a privately held Brazilian healthtech company, founded in 2016 and headquartered in Pinheiros, São Paulo, that develops and commercializes telehealth solutions for public and private healthcare institutions. Its core product is SIAS® (Sistema Integrado de Acesso à Saúde), a proprietary telemedicine platform featuring fully digital health records, LGPD-compliant data handling, WhatsApp-based patient access, and interoperability with the Brazilian public health information systems e-SUS and AGHuse. The company complements the platform with a physical infrastructure line — automated-disinfection telemedicine booths and Advanced Telemedicine Units (UTAs) capable of supporting 32 medical specialties and more than 20 examinations — and with a registered carbon-credit methodology, CompenSAS®, that monetizes avoided patient travel emissions.

The business operates three revenue streams: recurring software licensing of SIAS, hardware sales of booths and UTAs, and professional training/consulting services. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales led by a commercial coordinator, targeting municipal and state health secretaries, public hospitals, and private healthcare networks primarily through public procurement processes. The company's flagship deployment is the municipality of Campinas, where SIAS is now embedded across 33 health units and sustains 165 teleconsultations per week for a population of 1.14 million. The company was spun out of the social-impact organization SAS Brasil — co-founded by the same two founders in 2013 — and has accumulated 60,000+ consultations and reached 1.5 million+ people across four Brazilian states.

Operationally, SAS Smart remains a small, founder-led team of approximately 9-10 people, with no disclosed external institutional funding, no published revenue, and a leadership trio of Adriana Mallet (CEO, physician and social entrepreneur), Sabine Bolonhini (co-founder, leadership and education specialist), and Suelen Morais (CTO, 15+ years in telehealth implementation in Pernambuco). Customer concentration is High, with Campinas functioning as the marquee public-sector reference and most other named relationships sitting within the founders' own SAS Brasil / Grupo SAS ecosystem. The company has earned multiple recognitions — Web Summit, eAwards Brasil, Prêmio Dasa de Inovação Médica, WSA, and the Schwab Foundation Social Innovator of the Year 2022 for the CEO.

Scale indicators8 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• Pixeon: Brazilian healthcare technology company providing imaging, LIS, RIS, and telehealth-adjacent solutions to hospitals and clinics. Comparable because it sells software + supporting services to Brazilian provider organizations similarly to SAS Smart's SIAS ecosystem, though broader in imaging.
• Conexa Saúde: Brazilian telemedicine and integrated care platform connecting patients to specialists remotely. Highly comparable to SAS Smart as a Brazilian-built telehealth stack targeting both public and private healthcare, though Conexa leans toward health-plan and corporate clients versus SAS Smart's municipal/SUS focus.

Broad incumbents

• MV Sistemas (MV Saúde): Established Brazilian hospital and healthcare information systems vendor serving hundreds of providers with EHR, financial, and clinical modules. Comparable as a regional incumbent that overlaps with SIAS in serving public and private provider organizations with software + services.
• TOTVS (TOTVS Saúde): Brazil's largest enterprise software company with a healthcare vertical offering EHR, practice management, and increasingly telehealth-style modules. Comparable as a broad incumbent with the channel and capital to enter SUS telehealth alongside companies like SAS Smart.
• Teladoc Health: Global telehealth leader offering virtual care platforms and services to health systems, payers, and employers. Comparable because it operates the same category of multi-specialty virtual care platform that SIAS delivers, but at a much larger scale and with very different geographic focus.
• Amwell: US/global telehealth platform providing virtual care infrastructure to health systems, payers, and clinicians. Comparable as a mature white-label telehealth platform competing in the same product category as SIAS, though focused on North American/UK health systems.

Others

• Dasa: Brazil's largest diagnostics chain, operator of the Prêmio Dasa and an existing partner/recognizer of SAS Smart via innovation awards. Comparable as an adjacent ecosystem player in Brazilian healthcare with digital-health ambitions, though primarily a diagnostics operator rather than a telehealth platform competitor.

Regional players

• Dr. Consulta: Brazilian health tech combining in-person clinics with telemedicine for retail and corporate patients. Comparable as a Brazilian digital health operator with telemedicine offerings, though its clinic-first model differs from SAS Smart's infrastructure/platform focus on providers.
