Bi&i Gmbh

What Bi&i Gmbh does

BI&I GmbH is a privately held German software company founded in 2013 by Markus W. Schütz and headquartered in Königswinter, Germany. The company specializes in cloud-based data analytics and business intelligence solutions for the hospital sector across the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). Its core product, biFOCUS Clinic, is an all-in-one cloud database integrating case numbers by diagnoses (ICD10), operations and procedures (OPS), DRG cost matrices, longitudinal information, purchasing-group structures, geo-visualization, and competitive analyses across the complete German §108 SGB V hospital market. Regional coverage is provided through biFOCUS Spital AT (Austria) and biFOCUS Spital CH (Switzerland), and the portfolio extends into medical/scientific intelligence via biFOCUS Voice, which maps expertise areas, publications, studies, guidelines, and professional networks across indication fields.

The platform is sold to six customer segments: hospitals, pharmaceutical and medical technology companies, consulting firms, health insurers (Kostenträger), and scientific and political institutions. Hospitals use it for local positioning and competition analysis; pharma and medtech use it to identify which hospitals and departments deliver product-relevant services and to track case-number trends; consultants use it as a fact base for national or local engagements; and health insurers and policymakers use it for care planning, benchmarking, and socio-demographic evaluation. Distribution is exclusively direct via the cloud, with 24/7 self-serve access and stated compatibility with CRM, DWH, and Microsoft Office environments.

BI&I operates on a subscription-based SaaS revenue model, with separate subscriptions for biFOCUS Clinic, biFOCUS Voice, and the regional Spital AT/CH products. The firm is bootstrapped with no disclosed external funding, employs 1-10 people, and runs a sales-led go-to-market through its bilingual website, a 2-3 times per year newsletter, and direct customer contact. No public pricing is disclosed, and the company is registered as BI&I GmbH (Amtsgericht Siegburg, HRB 12847, VAT ID DE 294 371 695) with Markus W. Schütz as sole Geschäftsführer.

Broad incumbents

• IQVIA: Global healthcare data, analytics, and market intelligence giant. Comparable because it sells hospital-level market intelligence, prescription/sales data, and consulting to pharma and medtech — the same buyer segments BI&I serves in DACH — but at much larger scale and across geographies.
• Definitive Healthcare: US-focused SaaS platform providing hospital and healthcare provider intelligence, including case data, financial metrics, and targeting tools. Closely analogous business model to biFOCUS Clinic, but operating in the US market rather than DACH.
• Health Catalyst: US healthcare data and analytics platform serving hospitals and health systems with benchmarking and performance improvement tools. Comparable as a hospital-focused BI/analytics vendor with benchmarking capabilities analogous to biFOCUS Clinic.
• Elsevier (RELX Group) — Healthcare Analytics: Global information analytics firm with healthcare provider intelligence, clinical analytics, and pharma decision-support products. Comparable as a large incumbent offering hospital/provider data and analytics to pharma and policy buyers overlapping with BI&I's customer base.
• Statista: German-founded global data and statistics platform with deep healthcare and hospital statistics offerings. Comparable as a German-headquartered BI/data company selling hospital and healthcare market data to enterprise customers, though far broader than BI&I's hospital focus.
• Komodo Health: US healthcare analytics platform that aggregates claims, EHR, and provider data to deliver patient/provider-level intelligence and market analysis to pharma and medtech. Same buyer persona and analytical use cases as BI&I, executed at much larger scale.

Direct peers

• IGES Institut: German research and consulting institute providing healthcare market analyses, hospital data, and policy evaluation to payers, government, and industry. Closely comparable because it sells healthcare data and consulting into the same DACH buyer segments (insurers, policy, pharma).
• 4sigma GmbH: German healthcare market research and analytics firm serving pharma and medtech clients in DACH. Directly comparable to BI&I in terms of vertical specialization, geography, and customer base (German-speaking pharma and medtech).

Emerging players

• Trilliant Health: US analytics platform applying predictive and AI-driven analytics to hospital demand, market sizing, and provider performance. Compares as a newer-generation, analytics-first competitor in the same provider/buyer space as biFOCUS, but US-focused.

Regional players

• Gesundheit Österreich GmbH (GÖG): Austrian national health planning and analysis body that produces hospital, health-system, and population-health data for Austria. Comparable as a regional (Austria) provider of hospital data and analytics, though primarily public-sector rather than commercial.
