Our values

Sovereignty first

European professional data must stay in Europe. No compromise.

Open source friendly

MIT Chrome extension, MIT npm SDK, public docs. We give more than we take.

GDPR-native, not optional

Audit log, DPA available, 30-day deletion. Not an Enterprise add-on.

Profitable & independent

No VC, no exit obsession. We build to last 20 years with our clients.
