Kontevia: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Kontevia prepares receipts and invoices for bookkeeping, aimed at restaurants, hotels and small businesses in Germany. Users send a photo of a till receipt via WhatsApp, forward an invoice by email or upload files in the browser. Kontevia extracts supplier, date, amounts, VAT rates and line items, suggests a ledger account under SKR03 or SKR04, checks for duplicate receipts and missing mandatory details, and passes the receipts to DATEV Unternehmen online or as a DATEV export to the tax adviser. There are four plans from 8 to 100 euros a month (excluding VAT) with a 14-day trial.

The provider is Eucalypt 4 s.r.o. in Prague, Czech Republic, which runs the sister brand DokladBot in Czechia. According to its data processing agreement, receipt images are stored with Wasabi in Amsterdam and the database with Supabase in London. Text recognition runs through the US company Anthropic and the application is hosted with the US company Vercel, both under standard contractual clauses.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Kontevia

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

Kontevia hosts data in EU, US, OTHER. Exactly what stays within the EU — and what does not — is defined by the vendor's data processing agreement and sub-processor list, not by a setting you control yourself; check those documents for the precise scope, including backups, logs and support access.

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