samedi: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

samedi is a German cloud platform for online appointments and patient communication. It targets medical practices, medical care centres (MVZ) and clinics, and, according to the website, also rehabilitation clinics and pharmacies. The platform offers online booking that can run on the practice's own website, a calendar with resource planning, an AI phone assistant, KBV-approved video consultations, digital forms and a patient portal. It has interfaces to more than 40 practice and hospital management systems. The offering is configured individually for each institution.

samedi GmbH is based in Berlin and is run by Katrin Alscher and Prof. Dr. Alexander Alscher. The sources name no foreign parent company. The website cites a BSI C5 Type 2 attestation and ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certification by TÜV NORD. A third-party directory states that data is held on servers in Germany, in a data centre in Magdeburg; samedi itself gives no location on the pages consulted. The software is not open source. A European care provider should ask for the current data processing agreement.

Why digital sovereignty matters with samedi

samedi is headquartered in DE 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 samedi scores best on data residency.

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