Dear Community,
2024 was transformative on many aspects and the foundation of an even better 2025.
Reflecting on 2024, our most remarkable year since 2016, we achieved major milestones that have established Alan's position as the leading integrated payvidor (payer + provider) in the European landscape. Our journey has been marked by solid growth, strategic expansions, and product innovation, all while successfully navigating a complex landscape.
We concluded the year with nearly 700,000 members and over €500m ARR (Annual Recurring Revenue), representing 48% year-over-year growth. This growth was driven by two key factors: first, our sales acquisition grew by 55%, powered by significant efficiency gains where each sales team member generated 52% more revenue than the previous year while maintaining the same acquisition costs. Second, we successfully expanded into the public sector, which contributed 32% of our growth.
Our team has expanded thoughtfully to over 600 Alaners (from 557 at the beginning of the year, +8% YoY), all deeply committed to our operational excellence and vision for the future.
The growth in Q4 appears relatively low because, following the onboarding of the Ministries, we had to readjust the figures as there was a gap between what was communicated to us and the reality of the number of agents and retirees.
In France, our breakthrough in the public sector was particularly noteworthy, with successful RFPs for the Ministry of Ecology and Prime Minister's office, achieving a ~90% satisfaction score from onboarded civil servants. This established us as the benchmark for public sector health coverage and strengthens our competitive position for the future.
What started as a proof of concept with Alan Walk has evolved into a powerful engine for member engagement and health improvement.
In Q4, we confirmed the potential of gamification to drive admin and member engagement on our health offering, reaching for Alan Walk (900 companies, 20k members). The results are:
Alan Walk, our gamified prevention initiative, effectively boosts adoption of our health services
The success of our gamification strategy extends beyond physical activity. Our comprehensive approach has driven strong cross-platform adoption, with users showing 20% increase in clinic usage, 120% increase in program participation, and 80% increase in content engagement.
Our AI initiatives have positioned Alan at the forefront of healthcare innovation.
We built upon the integration of our AI-powered medical assistant, Mo, into the Alan App for 50% of our members, as part of our medical-chat service “Alan Clinic”.
We published the world's first large-scale study of conversational medical AI in real clinical settings. The results validated our vision of AI-enhanced healthcare delivery:
In 2024, we published the world’s 1st large-scale study of conversational medical AI
Beyond medical AI, we are pioneering emotional health support through our AI-powered journaling feature, which has shown strong early adoption with 14% of users engaging in the experience. This demonstrates the potential of AI to support both physical and mental wellbeing.
Our commitment to expanding access to quality healthcare has yielded remarkable results in our enhanced health services.
The Alan Shop and optical care offerings have achieved record-breaking market share in November - 17% in contact lenses and 9% in glasses. This success translated into a 70% year-over-year increase in cost of claims savings. The financial impact has been substantial.
Moreover, in response to the remarkable success of our Alan Back Pain program in France (where 87% of the 22,000+ members experienced relief within just 14 days) we announced its expansion into Spain 🇪🇸 and Belgium 🇧🇪, as part of our commitment to enhancing well-being across borders.
In 2024, we achieved a step-change in operational efficiency by deploying AI across our entire value chain, delivering both cost savings and enhanced member experience:
In 2024, we created +225 marketing pieces using our own AI tools
Looking forward we are doubling down on AI investments for 2025 with three strategic priorities:
As we step into 2025, we have charted a clear path to success that promises to redefine healthcare.
Our Spring 2025 Release will mark a pivotal moment in Alan's journey, as we will unveil our vision to revolutionise how members engage with their health through major product announcements. We can wait to share that with you!
We are making prevention the new norm of care for all, both at home and at work. Our mission is to help people live in good health to 100 while enabling employers to transform health benefits into their most valuable investment in human capital.
2025 will be the year Alan's vision of integrated healthcare becomes a reality at scale.
Thank you for being part of this journey.
Jean-Charles
