Super Productivity: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Super Productivity is a free, open-source task manager for focused work. It combines task management, time tracking and focus tools: tasks with subtasks, notes, tags, projects and repeating schedules, shown as a list, Kanban board or Eisenhower matrix. It also offers a Pomodoro timer, timesheets and reports, calendar import and integrations with GitHub, GitLab, Jira and Linear. The app runs on Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS and in the browser, works offline and requires no account.

The source code is on GitHub under the MIT licence. Tasks stay on your own device by default. Syncing is optional through SuperSync, a service from the developer that is end-to-end encrypted and can also be self-hosted, through WebDAV, or through Dropbox. The sources consulted do not say where the developer is based or where SuperSync is hosted. Because the software runs locally and you choose where data is synchronised, European organisations can decide for themselves where their data is stored.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Super Productivity

Super Productivity is headquartered in AT 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 Super Productivity scores best on data residency.

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