Compleye: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Compleye is a compliance collaboration platform for technology companies that need a certification or have to pass a customer's security review. The vendor lists ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIS2, GDPR, ISO 27701, HIPAA, ISO 9001, the EU AI Act and ISO 42001. The platform holds the evidence, while a named compliance and privacy officer builds the management system together with the customer and guides them through the audit. Offerings range from a light ISO 27001 start to full implementation and fractional compliance. Compleye is delivered as an online service.

Compleye is based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. According to the vendor, the platform is built and hosted in the EU; no hosting provider or region is named. The website names no parent company, and no self-hosted or open-source edition is described. The site does publish a data processing agreement (DPA). A European organisation evaluating the service should ask for the hosting provider and the list of subprocessors.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Compleye

Compleye is headquartered in NL and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Compleye scores best on data residency.

Compleye is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Compleye together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
