Health insurance is one of the few products people pay for while hoping they never have to use it. Alan is trying to change that.
In this episode, Jean-Charles Samuelian, Co-founder and CEO of Alan, shares how the company built a full-stack health insurance platform designed around prevention, personalization, and everyday engagement rather than simply paying claims when something goes wrong.
They discuss why Alan chose to become a regulated insurer instead of a broker or technology provider, how owning the entire insurance stack changed the customer experience and economics, and why the company believes prevention can become central to the future of health insurance.
Jean-Charles also explains how Alan is using AI across customer service, operations, and healthcare through its AI companion Mo, why personalization should improve care rather than determine who can afford insurance, and how the company is building one technology platform across France, Spain, Belgium, and Canada.
