GDPR by default

European companies are built with data protection baked in, not bolted on.

Data stays in Europe

No transatlantic data transfers, no Schrems II headaches, no legal uncertainty.

Support local ecosystems

European tech companies need visibility. Your stack choice is a vote.

Lower latency for EU users

Servers in Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Paris, or Stockholm mean faster products.

Open source culture

A huge share of major OSS comes from Europe. This directory celebrates that.

Regulatory alignment

GDPR, NIS2, AI Act — European tools are built knowing these rules exist.
