What SOCIETE CIVILE DU DIX BIS RUE JEAN PUY does

Societe.com, operated by SOCIETE SAS and headquartered at 10 rue de Penthièvre in Paris, is a French business information platform founded in 1999 under the impulse of Xavier Niel. The company aggregates official registry data from INSEE SIRENE, INPI, RCS/Greffes, and BODACC into a database covering 13.5 million active businesses and 5.8 million directors, with 25 years of historical depth. Its audience spans enterprise customers (Generali, SwissLife, Docaposte, Zeiss, Monoprix, Feu Vert, Mondial Relay, UFC Que Choisir), SMBs, accountants, and individual professionals, generating millions of monthly users.

The platform is delivered through a freemium subscription stack (Essentiel free, Plus at €16.90-19.90/month, Pro at €39.90-49.90/month), supplemented by API Pro, the Siretiseur bulk lookup tool, data enrichment, prospect exports, sector monitoring, Societe Maps, Societe Formalités, and the 2024 Agent IA beta. Architecture combines continuous ingestion of official sources with API and CRM connectors (Salesforce, HubSpot, Odoo, Make, Zapier) that distribute data across 7,000+ applications and process more than 150,000 API calls per day from over 1,000 accounts.

The business model monetizes through tiered subscriptions, pay-as-you-go API credits, and embedded integrations, targeting enterprise compliance and KYC buyers at the top, professional SMBs at the mid-tier, and a large free user base that converts upward via paywalls on bulk lookups and exports.

Direct peers

• Pappers.fr: French business information platform offering free and paid access to company registry data, financial statements, and director information — directly competing with Societe.com on the same SIRENE/RCS/BODACC datasets for the French SMB and prosumer market.
• Altares: Major French B2B data and credit information provider (Altares D&B) offering company financials, compliance, and decisioning data — overlapping heavily with Societe.com's enterprise and risk management use cases.
• Infogreffe: Official GIE Infogreffe portal providing direct access to French Commercial Court (RCS) registry data — a key upstream data source for Societe.com and a competitor for paid official document sales.
• OpenCorporates: Open database of company registry information from multiple jurisdictions — comparable business model of aggregating official registry data and exposing it via web/API for compliance and research use cases.
• SocieteInfo: French B2B prospecting and data platform providing company and director data with CRM integrations — directly comparable to Societe.com's prospect file export and data enrichment products.
• Manageo: French B2B data provider specializing in company financials, prospect databases, and data enrichment — comparable to Societe.com's data enrichment and prospect export products.

Broad incumbents

• Dun & Bradstreet: Global leader in business data and credit decisioning — comparable in terms of enterprise data enrichment, risk, and CRM enrichment use cases, but operating globally rather than focusing on France.
• Bureau van Dijk (Moody's): Global private company data provider now part of Moody's, serving enterprise compliance, KYC, and supply chain use cases — comparable in data enrichment and financial intelligence offerings.
• Bloomberg Supply Chain / Bureau van Dijk Orbis: Bloomberg's enterprise company data products (incorporating Orbis) provide global company intelligence comparable to Societe.com's enterprise data offerings, though at a different scale and geographic scope.

Regional players

• Companies House (UK): UK government company registry providing free access to British company data — the UK functional analog of Societe.com's data sources, comparable as a free public business data portal though serving a different geography.
