Huwise: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Huwise, known as Opendatasoft until 2025, is a platform that helps organisations catalogue, share and visualise data. Datasets are packaged as data products that business teams, IT staff and AI agents can find and reuse through a data catalogue, dashboards, APIs and exports. Users work through a web interface, and an MCP server connects AI agents to the data marketplace.

Huwise is based in Paris and operates through the French company Opendatasoft SA. Its privacy policy refers to French Act 78-17 and the GDPR but does not state where customer data is stored. European organisations should request this in writing before signing a contract. Public reports on its funding rounds name mainly French investors, and no non-European majority owner is identified. The product is not open source.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Huwise

Huwise is headquartered in FR 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 Huwise scores best on data residency.

Huwise 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 Huwise together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
