Hey! Sorry for replying that long. Thank you, that’s a great find actually, listed it.
Software engineer/manager from Latvia. Interested in digital sovereignty and EU alternatives to big tech. Building solo projects, one of which is euvetted.com - a directory of European and privacy-first SaaS alternatives to major US tools, with hosting region, ownership and CLOUD Act data per listing. Affiliate-funded (probably will be in future)


Hey! Sorry for replying that long. Thank you, that’s a great find actually, listed it.


Good point. But I will move towards sketching/drafting the content only and finalising myself after the main gaps of the website are fixed


Most of those regulations are not applicable to a website like that, but transparency is related here of course. Vids, pictures, chat bots and texts - should be disclosed, yes.


I disclosed monetisation at first place because that can actually bias what I recommend. On the other hand AI just helps me with drafting big texts and content, it does not make any decisions so in my head it looked like just another tool I’ve used during the development and I haven’t really thought it’s worth disclosing it.
Fair point though, I’ll keep that in mind next time.


I am actually eager to fix, not delete. Every claim is sourced so if a company finds any assessment wrong the first thing I want is them to show me and I will correct it asap. There were couple of cases already.
The removal is for other case tho. Some companies just don’t want to be on the list. At some point keeping them there will not help anyone. The whole point of this website is to help people find good options, not pointing which is worse. My thought here is that no good product would claim for a removal anyway.
I will look for a way to work this around tho, as displaying something the company doesn’t like might still be very useful for the users.


These are in progress currently, thank you! As well as git services, i.e alternatives to github/gitlab


Hey. Thank you for mentioning that, will see if it fits in my list


Thank you! Yes, “EU-Sovereign” and others are editorial labels. They should be treated more like “this is complete safe for EU” (or not safe) rather than “this is 100% made in EU”. But I will think on the naming more as they are a bit misleading, I agree.


Okay I thought only us EU guys are trying to disconnect, nice to know that :)
I haven’t made a deep research membership donation services yet, the only one that comes to my mind is https://en.liberapay.com/, it’s French but it’s hosted on AWS Ireland tho. No idea how good it is, never used any of these


I will review it, saved it to my backlog. Thank you!


Maybe I got confused by their pricing strategy. Currently I see 3.99 per month if paying annually. I will take a closer look, noted. Thanks.


Not at all sir


Ha, fair and I won’t pretend otherwise. The write-ups are AI-drafted. I’m one person covering everything and there is no real option to do it otherwise.
But the line I care about is this. The prose is AI, the facts aren’t. Everything you see like ownership, cloud act exposure, hosting region, sub-processors, feature comparisons is verified manually.
And you are right that the tone needs to be fixed.


Good catch, thanks. The listing is KeePassXC specifically and that fork really is desktop-onlyб so the “no mobile” is technically true for that one app. But you’re right that it reads wrong in a comparison: the whole point of KeePassXC is the local .kdbx file, and that opens fine in mobile apps like KeePassDX on Android or Strongbox/KeePassium on iOS. So the KeePass approach does have mobile, even if this app doesn’t ship it.
I’ll fix the wording so it doesn’t imply you’re stuck on desktop. Thanks for flagging it.


Yeah, that is a great feature, I would use it myself.
There’s two sides to it really: one is finding a single EU platform that swallows a few of your tools at once (Proton covers mail, calendar, drive, pass and VPN in one account; Infomaniak’s kSuite is close to a Workspace replacement) and the other is just building a clean EU bundle across your whole stack.
I’ve got curated “stacks” pages that do a rough static version, but the tick-your-tools-and-see-what-covers-them thing isn’t built yet. Probably the version people would actually use though. Will definitely build it soon.


Thank you! Will review that one


Thanks for digging in properly, this is exactly the kind of feedback I was hoping for!
On the data centre thing - yes, fair point. Right now each listing has one hosting country, the EU region I checked, not the full “every region this vendor runs.” So for OVH I’ve got the EU side, but I’m not flagging that you could spin up in their US or Canada region by accident. Should fix that. Two things that help though: I keep ownership and hosting separate on purpose: OVH’s French, so even their US datacentres sit under a French parent, which is a different animal from a US company that just offers an EU region. And EU/EEA is the actual bar for me, not “Europe” loosely - UK and Canada don’t count even though everyone lumps them in.
DNS and registrars - yeah, not there, blind spot. Part of it is what you said: Bunny and Gcore are umbrella shops where DNS is one product of twenty, so they don’t slot in cleanly. CloudNS is the easy one. If you’ve still got the registrar list you clicked through, I’d take it and I’d want to check who actually owns what before listing, Gcore especially.
TLD ownership is a great shout though. “Your precious .dev is Google’s” most people have no clue. I already do write-ups like that (did one on CLOUD Act exposure), so mapping the new gTLDs fits perfectly. Might build it.


Thanks, really appreciate it! Right now I don’t track payment methods as a field, so that’s an honest gap.
What do you thing would actually be useful to see: just “accepts SEPA / direct debit / invoice” as a yes/no, or specifically European options like Bancontact, SOFORT and so on? I’d rather capture the thing people actually look for than guess.


Thank you! Yes, I am currently working on expanding categories. Currently it has more business related stuff but that’s not the only direction I am planing.
Thank you, seems like a good find for me. Definitely will review it.
