OneSky: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

OneSky is a localisation service for apps, games and websites, operated by OneSky Technology Pte. Ltd. It combines a translation management platform with professional human translation by staff translators in more than 70 languages. Quality tools include screenshot management, glossary tools and on-device testing, and the platform offers integrations and support for common file formats. Translation quotes are requested from the sales team. It is delivered as a cloud service.

OneSky is headquartered in Singapore, outside the EU, and no parent company is listed. According to its security page, all servers are built on Amazon Web Services; the page names no AWS regions and lists sub-processors mostly in the USA, with some in the UK and New Zealand. Public material does not state whether customer data can be kept in the EU, so European organisations should ask for the hosting region and the sub-processor list, and request a data processing agreement. The software is proprietary and not open source.

Why digital sovereignty matters with OneSky

OneSky is headquartered in SG, outside the EU. Contracts and data therefore also fall under non-European law. The GDPR applies through contractual terms, but in a conflict with local legislation you have less certainty than with a European vendor.

OneSky hosts data in EU, 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.

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