Recovr has been named one of the fastest growing startups in France and Benelux in 2026 🔥
tldr: nice KPIs and honest founder talk below, probably contains bad style and whatever is not recommended in a classic linkedin post
The Sifted100 is a leaderboard made by Sifted, the leading media brand for European Tech (backed by Financial Times), recognizing the top 100 fastest growing startups in France, Netherlands and (of course) Belgium.
With a CAGR of 57% over the last 2 financial years, we ranked 6th among Belgian startups and 68th overall. Small Belgian pride moment: the ranking is topped by our very own superstars Aikido Security ! (congrats again Felix and team 😎 )
Beyond our growth, that we strive to get as close as possible to this number this year, this recognition comes at a pivotal quarter for us:
📈 There are still 20 days left in the quarter, but Q2 is already guaranteed to be our best quarter ever in new MRR. Our churn is at its lowest level in 3 years (second lowest, not lowest, because honesty, remember). We're clearly on track to reach profitability. (for the SaaS KPI geeks: saas quick ratio expected between 6-7, no pun intended)
🌍Our internationalization strategy is paying off: for the first time, 35% of our sales this quarter came from abroad. And with 4+ events in France in just over 30 days, we expect this number to keep rising.
🤖And our tech team keeps shipping AI features at a pace that honestly impresses me. After the AI-calls, inbox autopilot and a completely renewed debtor cockpit are coming soon 👀 Big kudos to the team 🙌
And yet... never believe a founder telling you everything is easy and everything is fine.
The reality is that it's hard. You fight for every small victory. You endure the sleepless nights.
The reality is that sometimes you miss a quarter and yet you don't really understand why (coucou Q1 👋). You believe hard in a new hire that doesn't work out, you release a feature you think would be game-changer and adoption was a struggle.
That's why you have to celebrate the victories, and I think that's something we're really bad at as founder.
And today, we're celebrating !
Thanks Éanna Kelly for featuring our discussion in the report, it was a real pleasure talking about the Belgian ecosystem and the impact of AI with you.
And thanks to the whole Recovr team, this ranking is yours !
DISCLAIMER: this post was written by a human (me), then I asked Claude to fix my grammar because, honestly, my english teacher deserves better. The bad style is 100% mine though. Sorry for that, if you miss the typical claude/gpt stuff, just scroll down, you'll find plenty :)
