Alan is an AI-powered health insurance platform that combines employer group health insurance products with a digital health companion application, using AI to personalise member health recommendations, streamline claims processing, and provide on-demand access to telehealth and mental health resources. The Paris company holds full insurance carrier status in France, Belgium, and Spain, operating as a licensed insurer rather than a distribution intermediary.\n\nThe company raised approximately $220 million including a Series D round from investors including Temasek, Coatue, and Index Ventures, reaching a valuation of approximately $1.4 billion. Alan reports over half a million members across its markets, covering employees at several thousand companies including Stripe, Spendesk, and Vinted, with strong growth in SME employer sales driven by its digital-first enrolment and claims experience. The Alan app provides members with health navigation, symptom checking, and AI-generated health content in addition to insurance card and claims management functionality.\n\nAlan competes in the European digital health insurance market against traditional mutuals including Malakoff Humanis and AG2R La Mondiale, as well as digital health insurers including Henner and Oscar Health in the US context. Its vertical integration as a licensed insurer combined with a technology platform differentiates it from insurtechs that distribute existing insurer products through digital channels, giving Alan full control over the member experience and claims economics. The company is considered one of the most significant French technology companies building in regulated financial services.
