For bootstrapped and indie SaaS founders

GDPR for indie SaaS. Built by someone who would rather code.

Vanta is £8,000 a year and built for a Series A. Rowpa is £49 a month and built for the founder who knows GDPR is real, doesn't have a compliance budget, and would rather not lose a weekend to ICO docs every time a customer asks a question.

The honest truth

If you've started a SaaS in the last two years and you have EU or UK users, you have GDPR exposure. You also know that the moment a customer asks "are you GDPR compliant?", the answer "we have a cookie banner and a privacy policy from a template" stops working.

Rowpa is the working tool for that exact moment.

What you actually get

ROPA built from your real stack
Paste your URL. AI scans for trackers, identifies the SaaS vendors you use (Stripe, Supabase, Vercel, Resend, OpenAI, Anthropic, Loops, Cal.com, Cloudflare, GitHub, Linear), and produces an Article 30 record. You review, you ship.
Vendor DPA register populated automatically
300+ vendors in our library with verified DPA URLs, sub-processor lists, transfer mechanisms. Add anything we don't have and the AI enriches it.
Privacy policy generated from your ROPA
Not a template. Reflects what you actually do. When you add a vendor, the policy moves with it.
Trust Center URL
One link you can paste into a customer email instead of writing a 40-question vendor security questionnaire response. ROPA summary, sub-processors, security overview, privacy policy, DSR form, complaints intake.
Public DSR intake form
Customers who want to access or delete their data have a form. AI drafts the response with legal reasoning from your ROPA.
DUAA complaints procedure ready for 19 June 2026
If you have any UK users, you need this from 19 June. Five minutes to publish.

Common questions

I'm bootstrapped and pre-revenue. Do I need this?
If you have users in the UK or EU, yes. GDPR applies to anyone processing their data. Free tier covers the basics; Starter covers everything when you have paying customers.
Will Rowpa get me through a vendor security questionnaire?
The Trust Center URL handles about 80% of the questions a customer security team will ask. You answer the rest yourself in five minutes instead of an afternoon.
Do you compete with ComplyDog?
Sort of. ComplyDog is annual-only, US-leaning, no transparent pricing. Rowpa is UK-grounded, monthly, transparent. If you're a UK indie SaaS we'll generally fit better.
Will Rowpa scale with me?
To about 30 staff or your first SOC 2 audit prep. At that point Vanta or Drata are the right tools and we'll say so honestly. You take your data with you on export.
What about EU AI Act?
GDPR is what we do. AI Act compliance for AI-feature SaaS is on our long-term roadmap. We'll flag where it intersects with GDPR.
I run a side project, not my main job. Does this still make sense?
Yes. The free tier is forever free. If your side project starts taking PII (signups with email is enough), Starter is £49.
