Novulo: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Novulo is a low-code platform with a composable architecture, positioned as an AI-native platform for enterprise applications. Organisations assemble and adapt applications from existing components, for example for insurance administration and claims, retail and webshops, automotive catalogues and dealer portals, and aviation maintenance planning. The platform consists of the Novulo Platform architecture and tooling, the Novulo Store of reusable components and an ecosystem of partners. According to the vendor, applications can run in the cloud, on-premise or in a hybrid setup and can integrate with existing ERP and CRM systems.

Novulo is based in Enschede, the Netherlands. The vendor displays an ISO 27001 certification and describes the platform as GDPR-ready; according to its website, customers have full access to the source code of their application. The option to run on-premise or hybrid gives a European organisation a choice over where its data resides, while a Dutch vendor is subject to European law.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Novulo

Novulo 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 Novulo scores best on data residency.

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