Kompany: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Kompany is a platform for business verification, know-your-customer (KYC) and anti-money-laundering checks. Compliance teams use it to retrieve company register reports, identify ultimate beneficial owners (UBOs) and obtain credit reports. It also offers APIs for entity verification and KYC, and its services are provided online. The company is based in Vienna, Austria.

The Austrian company 360kompany, which operates Kompany, was acquired by Moody's Corporation in 2022. Moody's is headquartered in New York, so US law, including the CLOUD Act, can apply to the group. The legal entity has its seat in Austria, inside the EU. The website does not state where customer data is hosted or provide a data processing agreement, so European customers should request both before use. The product is not open source.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Kompany

Kompany is headquartered in AT and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data. The ultimate owner is based in US. Foreign control undermines part of the certainty a European headquarters offers.

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

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