SANOVIO is the agentic procurement platform for hospitals, from data to delivery.

Hospitals buy smarter together. Suppliers reach bundled demand without friction.

We turn scattered procurement data, fragmented suppliers, and overworked teams into one connected, intelligent operation. Our platform harmonises hospital procurement data, lets hospitals bundle their demand as a virtual procurement group, and enables teams to interact with their data in natural language. AI agents then match this volume to the best direct source, and SANOVIO handles fulfilment end-to-end.

We bootstrapped to profitability with >€1M ARR in under 8 months, making us one of the fastest organically growing healthtech start-ups in Europe. Now we're hiring our first team members to help us reach our next milestone: €10M ARR by the end of 2026.

Come join us in tackling one of healthcare's most complex cost challenge in a €138B market across Europe, from our offices in Germany, Switzerland, and China.
