Livlus
Factur-X E-Invoicing SaaS
Hey IH,
Honest situation, looking for advice or the
right person.
---
WHAT I BUILT
I'm Mekki, based in Algeria. I built Livlus —
a full B2B e-invoicing SaaS for the French
market.
France is making e-invoicing mandatory for all
businesses by September 2026. Livlus is already
compliant with everything that requires:
→ Factur-X (EN 16931)
→ Chorus Pro
→ Peppol BIS 3.0
→ FEC export
→ Stripe billing built in
→ Full dashboard, auth, invoicing workflow
Stack: React 19, TanStack Start, Supabase,
Cloudflare Workers.
Tested by French certified accountants.
Their feedback: compliance is solid, works
as expected.

THE PROBLEM
To operate as a certified e-invoicing platform
in France (PDP — Plateforme de Dématérialisation
Partenaire) you need a French legal entity.
I'm Algerian. I don't have one. I can't get
the certification myself.
I also need to move capital into another
venture right now.
So I'm selling the full product to a French
founder or studio who can:
- Register as a PDP with the DGFiP
- Take the product to market
- Capture a legally mandated customer base
The technical work is done. The market is
guaranteed by French law. The deadline is
in 67 days.

WHY THIS IS INTERESTING FOR A FRENCH BUYER
Building Factur-X compliance from scratch
is 3-4 months of specialized work minimum.
That's before you even think about Chorus Pro
integration, Peppol, and FEC.
A French founder who acquires this walks
in with the full product ready, validated
by accountants, and 67 days to acquire
their first customers before the mandatory
deadline forces everyone to move.
The TAM isn't speculative. French law
created it.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
→ Full SaaS product (production-ready)
→ Source code + GitHub repo
→ livlus.com domain
→ Brand, logo, identity
→ Full documentation
→ Deployment configuration
→ Go-to-market materials
---
ASKING PRICE
€8,000 — open to discussion for
the right buyer who can move fast.

MY QUESTION TO IH
Do any of you know French founders, French
dev studios, or French B2B SaaS operators
who are actively looking for acquisitions
in this space?
I've tried direct LinkedIn outreach but
I'm an outsider to the French tech scene
and my network there is thin.
A warm intro would honestly mean more
than any marketplace listing right now.
About
September 1, 2026: all French companies must be able to RECEIVE Factur-X invoices. Large companies must already EMIT them.

The interesting part here isn't the technology—it's the timing. Regulatory markets create a very different kind of opportunity because adoption isn't driven by persuasion alone. You've already reduced a huge amount of technical risk for whoever acquires it. At this point, the challenge feels much more like finding the right operator than proving the product itself.
this is actually the point and u got it thank you so much
Glad it resonated.
I have a couple of thoughts on the strategic implications of that shift—from proving the product to identifying the right operator—but they're better explained over email than in a thread.
If you're interested, what's the best email to reach you on?
im interested on selling it actually i have other matter i need to focus on for now
