Talkspirit

Talkspirit is a Paris-headquartered French enterprise social network and organisational operating system operated by **Talkspirit SAS** and founded in 2004 by **Philippe Pinault** and **Olivier Ricard**. The platform is designed as a complete replacement for Meta's Workplace, combining three core modules: **Structure** (dynamic org-chart, role clarity, OKR management), **Collaboration** (projects, documents, shared workspaces), and **Communication** (chat, video meetings, news feed). The product reports **900+ organisations** and 150,000+ users with 160+ partners. For EU-sovereignty procurement Talkspirit is the structurally cleanest French-SaaS listing in the docs-wikis/intranet category. The legal entity is **Talkspirit SAS** (Société par Actions Simplifiée, capital €16,000, SIRET 479 109 332, registered at the Paris Commercial Registry). Data is hosted on **OVH infrastructure in Roubaix, France** per the legal notice. The homepage claims **ISO 27001**, **SecNumCloud** qualification, and EUCS compliance — making it one of very few enterprise social network vendors with a SecNumCloud qualification, which is the highest French sovereign cloud standard and a strong signal for French public-sector procurement. Governing law is explicitly French (Article 8 of ToS), with disputes under the Paris Commercial Court. The privacy policy acknowledges some US sub-processors covered by Standard Contractual Clauses — a minor cloud_act_exposure flag in the strict rubric, but structurally managed through French governing law and French data residency. No public DPA download link was found at audit time; procurement teams should request the AVV/DPA directly. Pricing is sales-engaged (demo-request model); specific EUR tier figures not published on the website. Best fit: French companies and EU public-sector buyers wanting a Workplace from Meta replacement with the highest available French compliance posture (SecNumCloud + ISO 27001); organisations requiring French-law governance; teams needing org-chart, OKR, and project management in one platform alongside chat and news feed.
