Neko Health: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Neko Health offers preventive health examinations in its own clinics. According to Wikipedia, the company combines full-body scans and blood tests with sensors and artificial intelligence to collect and analyse health data. Its privacy notice describes a 360-degree scanner with more than 70 sensors. Clinics operate in Stockholm and London. This is physical care delivered in a clinic, not software that you operate yourself.

Neko Health AB is a Swedish company, co-founded in 2018 by Hjalmar Nilsonne and Daniel Ek. The Swedish privacy notice applies to the Swedish clinics under the GDPR, with the Swedish authority IMY as supervisor. It states that personal data may also be transferred to and processed in countries outside the EU/EEA, including countries where the Neko group operates, with appropriate contractual and technical safeguards. A separate US entity, Neko Health, Inc., has its own privacy notice. The company is not open source. European organisations that offer their employees a scan should review in advance how health data is transferred.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Neko Health

Neko Health is headquartered in SE 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 Neko Health scores best on data residency.

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