Rerun: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Rerun is a data platform for physical AI. Its open-source SDK lets teams log multimodal data such as images, point clouds and time series, store it, query it and visualise it, from data collection through to model training. Rerun Hub is the commercial backend for cataloguing and querying large collections kept in object storage. The SDK is open source and can be used on the organisation's own infrastructure.

Rerun Technologies AB is a Swedish company that describes itself as remote-first, with founders based in Stockholm. Its privacy policy states that the company is established in Sweden, within the EEA, and offers a data processing addendum to business customers. The SDK and viewer are licensed under Apache-2.0 and MIT. The policy names Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud among its providers without stating the regions used, so organisations that handle sensitive data should confirm where Rerun Hub stores data before adopting it.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Rerun

Rerun 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 Rerun scores best on data residency.

Rerun is open source. You can audit the source code, self-host the software and keep the encryption keys under your own control. Switching is easier because data and software are not tied to a single party.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Rerun together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
