SaaS made in Netherlands

In short

The Netherlands is strongest in payments and privacy tooling: Adyen and Mollie in payments; StartMail and Soverin in private email; Surfshark in VPN; Simple Analytics in privacy-first web analytics; and Thalassa Cloud in hosting. These are all companies headquartered in the Netherlands, but origin is only one signal — ownership, hosting region and CLOUD Act exposure are recorded separately on each listing, because a Dutch company can still route data through a US sub-processor.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Are Dutch SaaS companies automatically hosted in the Netherlands?
No — company origin and hosting region are independent signals, which is why we record them separately. Many Dutch vendors host domestically: Adyen hosts in Netherlands, for example. But a Dutch-headquartered company can still place data with a non-Dutch or US sub-processor, so check the hosting region and sub-processor list on each listing rather than inferring it from the company's location.
Does a Dutch company mean no US CLOUD Act exposure?
Not by itself. CLOUD Act reach follows corporate control and the sub-processor chain, not just where the head office sits. A Dutch-incorporated, Dutch-controlled vendor with no US services in the data path has a structurally weaker exposure profile, whereas a Dutch firm with US ownership or a US service in the path can remain exposed. StartMail, for instance, is recorded as CLOUD Act exposure: Minor, hosting in Netherlands. Each listing shows the exposure we assessed.
Which categories have the strongest Dutch options?
Payments (Adyen, Mollie) is the standout — both are globally significant Dutch payment platforms. Privacy tooling is the other strength: private email (StartMail, Soverin), VPN (Surfshark) and privacy-first analytics (Simple Analytics, hosted in Netherlands). The catalog also covers booking, forms, file sharing and project management from Dutch vendors.
