CryptPad
End-to-end encrypted collaboration suite. Docs, spreadsheets, and kanban boards. The server never sees your content.
Quick facts
Real-time collaborative docs, spreadsheets, kanban boards and forms are all encrypted client-side, so the server hosting them literally can't read your content. It's also fully self-hostable.
Formula-heavy spreadsheets and complex documents feel noticeably slower than Google Sheets, and there's no offline desktop app – everything runs in the browser.
Why does it score 100?
Incorporated in Paris, France – a full EU member state.
Developed and owned independently by XWiki SAS, with no outside investors or parent company.
CryptPad runs on its own infrastructure in France rather than a rented cloud, and client-side encryption means the server can't read your content regardless.
Fully open source and GDPR-compliant, though there's no publicly documented independent security audit yet – the one gap in an otherwise strong record.
