JVS-Mairistem

What JVS-Mairistem does

JVS-Mairistem is a French software publisher founded in 1983 and headquartered in Saint-Martin-sur-le-Pré, operating as the main municipal management brand under Groupe JVS. The company publishes a comprehensive suite of web-based management software for French municipalities, intercommunalities (EPCI), public establishments, water services, and unions, organized around two flagship subscription packages — Horizon Infinity for villages and small communes, and Millésime Infinity for medium-sized communes and cities — with additional à la carte modules covering finance, HR, civil status, citizen relations, water/sanitation, cemeteries, technical interventions, and cybersecurity. The technical architecture relies on a sovereign cloud infrastructure designed for public establishments, full-web delivery (no installation), modular interoperability between products, and API integration with citizen-facing apps and the FranceConnect identity layer; the company also operates the wholly-owned Citopia subsidiary for citizen relationship management.

The business model combines recurring SaaS subscriptions (Infinity packages, BetterStreet tiers) with one-time licenses, freemium acquisition (BetterStreet Starter), professional services (SOS Secr\u00e9taire outsourced secretariat, training, consulting/audit), managed services (cybersecurity maintenance contracts), and an e-commerce storefront for add-ons. Go-to-market runs through direct enterprise field sales with dedicated account managers for larger municipalities, a network of regional agencies and partners across France for mid-market coverage, inside sales driven by website demo requests, and demand-generation activities including content marketing, the Club Mairistem user community, and webinars timed to the 2026 municipal election cycle. The company serves 15,000+ collectivités with a 30-person customer assistance team, while no external funding rounds have been disclosed and revenue is not publicly reported.
