Comparison · verified 11 June 2026
osapiens is one of the most heavily capitalized compliance platforms in Europe, and PPWR is one of the 26+ solutions on its HUB. The comparison below only uses facts published by osapiens (sourced and dated), plus our own published specifications.
osapiens (Mannheim, founded 2018, $120M Series B led by Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, 500+ employees, 2,500+ customers cited on its homepage) operates the osapiens HUB — a multi-regulation ESG platform covering EUDR, CSRD, CBAM, CSDDD, PFAS, LkSG, NIS 2 and more. PPWR is one module of that hub. PPWR Connect is the opposite shape: one regulation, covered end to end, priced for SMEs.
