What Agora Plus does

Agora Plus (AGORA PLUS SARL) is a privately-held French software publisher founded in 2005 and headquartered at 60 Rue Étienne Dolet, Malakoff. The company develops and sells a suite of full-web (SaaS) applications aimed exclusively at French local government authorities (collectivités territoriales) for family and citizen services. Its core products are Agora Baby (early-childhood facility management), Agora Peri (peri- and extracurricular activity management), Agora Scol (school affairs), Agora Famille (family/citizen portal), Agora Relay (Relais Petite Enfance / childminder network management), and Agora Touch (touch-based attendance tracking), supplemented by add-on modules including Agora Phone, Agora Notifs, Agora App, and Agora Multiactivités.

The platform is delivered as cloud-hosted SaaS on OVH infrastructure carrying ISO 27001, HDS, and SecNumCloud certifications, and is designed for native interoperability with major French public-sector platforms — CAF, MSA, DGFIP (Impôts Particuliers), ONDE (Éducation Nationale), and API Ressources EAJE — plus GRC (citizen-relationship) systems. These pre-built integrations automate regulatory reporting, family-allowance data exchange, student-demographics synchronization, and tax-data flow, materially reducing the manual administrative workload on municipal teams.

Agora Plus operates a sales-led, enterprise field-sales model targeting municipalities and intercommunalities of all sizes, supported by a dedicated project team (project managers, business consultants, specialised technicians) handling installation, configuration, training, and final validation. Revenue is generated through recurring software subscriptions priced by usage, collective size, and financial capacity; professional services for implementation and training (Agora Projet, Agora Formations); and managed cloud-hosting subscriptions (Agora Cloud). Distribution combines direct sales with the UGAP French public-procurement framework, which streamlines purchasing for public-sector entities. The company is led by M. Pedro Carlos Vaz as Director of Publication and is fully bootstrapped, with €7,500 of share capital and no disclosed external investors.
