About the Company

Seyna

B2B insurance brokerage platform with underwriting

Seyna provides a B2B insurance brokerage platform in France that lets insurance brokers create, underwrite, and manage bespoke insurance programs that they can white-label to their customers. The core is a proprietary insurance and policy-management system with modules for underwriting, claims, compliance, and payment automation, enabling brokers to launch tailored insurance products quickly for lines such as pet health, travel, event cancellation, and rent guarantees. Revenue comes from both insurance activities and SaaS fees, not consumer-direct sales. A key differentiator is Seyna’s ability to underwrite its own products thanks to an ACPR insurance license, paired with a platform designed to support a end-to-end policy lifecycle for brokers, rather than simply acting as an intermediary. Its goal is to expand its software features and insurance lines (including health) across Europe, helping brokers scale personalized programs for a wide range of clients.
