Join the Software Library EU

​Make your digital service stand out by showing your commitment to data protection and responsible AI.

​

The Software Library EU is an centralized and growing platform created to support safer software and cloud service procurement across Europe. Developed by Finnish learning technology expert Ilona IT the Library gathers and maintains vendor-verified GDPR and AI compliance data in one centralized, structured database. The Library is currently used by 150 organizations in Finland and will soon expand to all of Europe through our mother company Academic Software.

​

Whether you're a software vendor or cloud service provider, now is the perfect time to add your service to the Software Library EU. Not only will you make your GDPR information easily accessible to customers – you'll be able to demonstrate compliance with the EU AI Act as well.

​

Why Join?

✅ Ensure ongoing access to the education, research and public market: Institutions will increasingly prioritize — and in many cases require — listed software to stay compliant. 

​

✅ Gain visibility: Your software will be highlighted to schools and universities actively searching for compliant solutions. 

​

✅ Save significant time: The Library streamlines and reduces the number of individual GDPR & AI data requests that institutions send to software vendors. 

​

✅ Join the standard: Already 150 institutions are using the Software Compliance Library EU, and this standard continues to expand throughout Europe.  

​

✅ Recognize the growing value of the Software Compliance Library EU — with over 350 software titles already fully documented in the platform.  

​

✅ Build trust: Transparency lowers barriers to purchase and speeds up decision-making. 

​

✅ 100% Free for Vendors - There are no costs involved. Listing your service and keeping the data updated is completely free for vendors.

New FRIA Tool for AI Regulation

​

A powerful new feature has launched in the Software Library – the FRIA tool. It is designed to help customers (data controllers) assess the Fundamental Rights Impact of high-risk AI systems, as required by the upcoming EU AI Act.
 

To support this, we collect the necessary information from AI service providers. This ensures that customers can easily complete their FRIA assessments using up-to-date vendor data – and, once the assessment is done, safely and lawfully deploy AI tools and applications that include AI-based features. This way, the FRIA tool also removes barriers of purchase!
 

FRIA is based on the framework developed by Finnish Government ICT Center "Valtori" and has been audited by an independent legal expert Lex Futura.
