Why it matters
01
Data stays in Europe
EU services are fully subject to GDPR - no transfers to jurisdictions where government access to data is regulated differently from privacy protection.
02
Less dependency
74% of European companies fear being cut off from US technology. Diversifying suppliers is not ideology - it is risk management.
03
Often simply better
DeepL translates better than Google Translate, Hetzner can be 5× cheaper than AWS, and Polish invoicing systems know KSeF inside out.
Frequently asked questions
What are European alternatives to US services?
Tools and services built by companies headquartered in Europe (EU, EEA, Switzerland, United Kingdom), or mature open-source projects you can run on European infrastructure. EuAlternatywy lists 230 of them in 43 categories - from email and cloud storage to invoicing ready for KSeF.
Why choose European and Polish tools?
EU services are fully covered by GDPR, data is not transferred outside Europe, and diversifying vendors reduces the risk of being cut off from technology. Many European tools are simply better or cheaper - DeepL, Hetzner, Polish invoicing systems.
How many Polish tools are in the directory?
Currently 69 - including GetResponse, Piwik PRO, Nozbe, Fakturownia, ClickMeeting and the Bielik AI model. All of them are on the "Polish tools" page.
Is the directory independent, and how does it make money?
Yes. Some links are affiliate links - a commission on purchases keeps the site running but does not affect the order or assessment of tools. Commercially featured listings are always labelled.
