What VERDEO does

VERDEO, operated under the legal entity AUBERT-DUMOND SAS (RCS Limoges), is a French SaaS company founded in 2023 and headquartered in Feytiat/Versailles that provides a two-sided platform enabling impact project holders (associations, NGOs, foundations, mission-driven companies, farmers) and impact funders (foundations, asset managers, banks, ESG consultancies, public administrations) to plan, monitor, document, certify, and trace environmental and social outcomes — with explicit positioning around French digital sovereignty and zero GAFAM dependency.

The platform architecture is delivered through nine functionally distinct but integrated modules: Description Projet, Suivi Technique Projet, Tableaux de bords consolidés, Gestion Intervenants, Gestion des Appels à projets (AAP), Gestion financière, Gestion documentaire, Génération de certificats, and Personnalisation. The software runs on Infomaniak's Swiss ISO 27001-certified data centres powered by renewable energy, with proprietary code registered at the French Agence de Protection des Programmes. Core technical components include GIS-based parcel geolocation (with French cadastral import), an alert engine on missing/inconsistent reporting, automated CERFA donation certificate generation, multi-currency financial tracking, and configurable project spaces. No AI/ML capabilities are disclosed in the product surface.

VERDEO operates a hybrid go-to-market: a sales-led motion running direct demos, 15-day free trials, and expert appointments for funders, supplemented by a community-led strategy publishing multilingual (FR/EN/ES) thought-leadership content and operating a project marketplace at sales.verdeo.fr. The company monetises through a freemium SaaS model (free internal project management) plus paid "Plus PP" modules for external portfolio and funder management, with quote-based enterprise pricing and professional-services revenue from customisation. As of early 2025 the company has ~11 employees, has raised approximately $570K in a single funding round, and counts Franciliane (Veolia Group subsidiary) as its flagship enterprise customer across voluntary carbon contribution programmes and international impact projects.
