Germany· Outdoor Navigation and Route Planning App

Needs review

Shortlist komoot when you need German-operated, sport-specific outdoor route planning with offline voice navigation and strong bike-computer/e-bike sync. Skip when you need urban multi-modal maps only (prefer Google Maps), a pure training/social fitness network (Strava), or a hard no-US-subprocessor stack—komoot discloses AWS EU hosting plus multiple US analytics/support tools.

Czech Republic· Maps & Navigation

Needs review

Shortlist Mapy.com when you want a Czech-operated map/navigation product with strong outdoor and Central European layers, offline packs, and an optional map REST API—especially as a Google Maps alternative for CZ-centric consumer or light developer use. Skip when you need self-hosting, public enterprise ISO/SOC evidence, or a detailed published subprocessor register; consider komoot for sport-only outdoor planning or HERE WeGo for HERE-stack offline multi-modal navigation.

komoot

Sport-specific outdoor route planning
Planner generates and customizes routes for hiking, road cycling, mountain biking, gravel, running, and related sports using OpenStreetMap-based maps and Graphhopper-attributed routing. Supports off-grid connectors where mapped paths do not exist. Free basic map overlays; advanced sport-specific map styles are Premium.
Turn-by-turn voice navigation with offline regions
Mobile apps provide turn-by-turn voice navigation and regional offline map downloads for unlocked areas. You can plan worldwide for free, but navigate/record only inside unlocked regions. One free region on signup; further regions via one-time map purchases or Premium worldwide access.
Maps products plus Premium subscription model
Core navigation ships as one-time Single Region, Region Bundle, or World Pack map unlocks with lifelong map updates and GPX download. Premium subscription adds multi-day planner, personal Collections, Live Tracking, weather-on-route, 3D maps, sport-specific maps, and komoot map on compatible Garmin devices—without putting retail prices on this page.
Garmin, bike computer, e-bike, and watch sync
Documented integrations include Garmin (Courses Sync, Live Sync, Premium komoot map on supported devices), Wahoo and other GPS bike computers, Bosch and other e-bike displays, and smartwatches (Apple Watch, Suunto, COROS, Wear OS, and more). Useful when the phone is not the primary field display.
Community Highlights, Collections, and privacy zones
Users share Highlights, tips, photos, and curated Collections; privacy zones on the website can hide private start/end locations on completed activities. Global Heatmaps use aggregated anonymized tracks with opt-out and start/finish trimming per support documentation.

Mapy.com

Multi-mode route planning with regional live traffic
Plan car, walk, bike (touring/MTB/road), ski, public transport (primarily CZ), and selected Czech water routes with elevation and itinerary detail. Car routing can use live traffic and closures in AT, HR, CZ, DE, HU, IT, PL, SK, and SI per help docs—confirm coverage for your corridor before field dependence.
Offline maps with offline search, plan, and navigate
Download country or regional packages (basic, outdoor, winter, traffic styles; aerial excluded). Free accounts keep one offline country at a time (switchable); Premium removes the country limit. Offline search/routing only works inside downloaded areas and needs a Seznam login for download management.
Outdoor, winter, aerial, and traffic map layers
Outdoor maps show contours, waymarked trails, and bike routes; winter maps cover slopes, lifts, and cross-country context; traffic layers show density and incidents where published; aerial includes detailed orthophotos and historical archives for CZ/SK and selected countries. CZ basemap is Seznam-edited; abroad primarily OSM-derived.
Web, mobile, CarPlay, and Android Auto clients
Use the same product family on the web portal and native Android/iOS apps, with CarPlay and Android Auto called out in official getting-started help. My Mapy syncs saved places, routes, GPX, and activities across devices when logged in.
Mapy.com REST API for tiles, geocode, and routing
Developer portal (developer.mapy.com) exposes map tiles, address search/autocomplete, route planning, matrix routing, elevation, static maps/panoramas, and time-zone helpers on a credit model with free monthly credits and optional paid overage after explicit enablement. Same infrastructure family as the public portal per Seznam API docs.
Premium outdoor planning extras
Mapy.com Premium (logged-in annual subscription) adds unlimited offline countries, PRO planner drawing, activity-specific planning modes, HorizontAR peak labels, smartwatch apps, custom speed settings, and priority support—while core free maps and basic offline one-country use remain available.

US CLOUD Act exposure (indicative)	Partial EU entity and no known US parent, but AWS EMEA hosting plus disclosed US-group processors (Zendesk, Google Firebase/Analytics, customer.io, Hotjar, Datadog, Meta SDK, Adjust). Not a low-exposure / claimed-safe assessment. Not legal advice.

Considerations & known limitations: komoot vs Mapy.com
Considerations & known limitations	komoot	Mapy.com
Multiple US-group SaaS and analytics processors	Medium Even with German HQ and claimed EU AWS hosting, privacy policy discloses Zendesk, Google, customer.io, Hotjar, Datadog, Meta, and Adjust. Buyers with strict no-US-tool policies need a different architecture.	Niet vermeld
Post-acquisition ownership and continuity	Medium Bending Spoons (Italy) closed acquisition of komoot in March 2025. Roadmap, packaging, and support quality may change under the new group; re-check commercial terms after ownership transitions.	Niet vermeld
No public ISO/SOC or independent security audit	Medium Enterprise assurance artifacts (ISO 27001, SOC 2, independent audit PDFs) were not found on public pages. Consumer outdoor use may tolerate this; regulated org procurement may not.	Niet vermeld
Navigation gated by unlocked map regions	Low Planning is global, but navigate/record requires unlocked regions (one free, then paid maps or Premium). Unexpected region boundaries can block field use if access is not purchased in advance.	Niet vermeld
Consumer product, not documented enterprise platform	Low No public self-host, fleet admin, or B2B DPA path found. Fine for individual outdoor use; weak fit for org-mandated controlled deployments.	Niet vermeld
Limited public security certification package	Niet vermeld	Medium No public ISO 27001/SOC 2 or independent audit PDF found for Mapy. Security/procurement teams must use questionnaires and contracts rather than downloadable attestations.
No public Mapy subprocessor inventory	Niet vermeld	Medium Seznam claims own/operated DCs and mentions third-country partners under SCCs without listing Mapy subprocessors. High-assurance buyers cannot verify all data paths from public pages alone.
Free offline limited to one country	Niet vermeld	Low Multi-country offline travel on free tier requires switching the single free country or Premium. Plan downloads before trips with weak connectivity.
Public transport planning primarily CZ	Niet vermeld	Low Help docs position public-transport planning as primarily Czech Republic for now—do not assume multi-country PT parity with Google.
Seznam account and optional Big Tech login	Niet vermeld	Low Offline management and Premium need Seznam login; app/store materials mention Google/Apple/Microsoft sign-in options that can expand third-party identity processing.

Geschiktheid

komoot

Best fit when

Hikers, cyclists, MTB and gravel riders who need trail-aware planning rather than car GPS
Users who download regional offline maps and rely on turn-by-turn voice navigation off-grid
Cyclists and e-bike riders who sync routes to Garmin, Wahoo, Bosch, or similar field devices
European buyers who want a German legal entity and EU-claimed application hosting (with eyes open on US SaaS subprocessors)
Multi-day tourers who will use Premium multi-day planner and worldwide map access

Poor fit when

Teams that require published ISO 27001/SOC 2, a self-serve B2B DPA, or enterprise SSO/admin tenancy
Buyers who need zero US-group subprocessors (Zendesk, Google Analytics/Firebase, customer.io, etc. are disclosed)
Users who only need city transit, business search, or car navigation—Google Maps (or peers) fit better
Orgs that need self-hosted or fully air-gapped outdoor mapping software
Anyone expecting a pure open-source product (maps use OSM; the komoot app/service is proprietary SaaS)

Consider instead when

When: You need general multi-modal city maps, transit, and business search rather than trail routing
Consider: Google Maps
Different job-to-be-done; komoot is outdoor sport routing, not a full Google Maps replacement.
When: You prioritize social training logs, segments, and athlete network over offline multi-sport trail planning
Consider: Strava (US; not in this catalog)
Compare community model and data export; not an EU-sovereignty pick.
When: You need a hard EU-only data path with no US SaaS analytics/support tools
Consider: Self-hosted OSM/GraphHopper stacks or offline GPS devices with local-only maps
komoot’s privacy policy discloses several US-group processors despite EU hosting claims.

Mapy.com

Best fit when

Hikers, cyclists, and travellers who want outdoor/winter cartography plus offline country packs
Drivers needing car navigation with published live traffic coverage in listed Central European countries
Teams preferring a Czech legal entity (Seznam.cz, a.s.) over Google Maps for consumer or light B2B map UX
Developers embedding tiles, geocoding, or routing via Mapy REST API with free credits for smaller traffic
Users who want one app spanning web, mobile, CarPlay/Android Auto, and My Mapy sync

Poor fit when

Requirements for self-hosted map servers or fully open-source client+server stacks
Procurement that mandates public ISO 27001/SOC 2 or a published full subprocessor list before shortlist
Global fleet/commercial navigation needing OEM-grade contracts beyond freemium consumer terms
Use cases that depend on Google-class POI social graph and ecosystem defaults outside Mapy’s strengths

Consider instead when

When: You primarily need sport-specific trail planning with bike-computer/e-bike sync ecosystems
Consider: komoot
komoot is outdoor-first; Mapy is broader (car/PT/API) with Seznam CZ ops
When: You want HERE commercial map stack offline multi-modal navigation under a Dutch controller
Consider: HERE WeGo
WeGo publishes AWS/Azure subprocessors; different ownership and assurance packaging
When: You need maximum global POI density, default OS integration, or Google ecosystem lock-in
Consider: Google Maps
US operator; stronger everyday urban/search network effects in many markets

Open questions for due diligence

komoot

Will komoot sign a customer-specific B2B DPA and publish a complete subprocessor list with countries/roles?
Are any ISO 27001 / SOC 2 or independent penetration-test summaries available under NDA after the Bending Spoons acquisition?
Which exact AWS regions and services host primary app data vs analytics side-paths?
What admin/export/deletion SLAs apply if an organization standardizes on komoot for staff outdoor activities?
How will Premium/Maps packaging and long-term offline guarantees evolve under Bending Spoons ownership?

Mapy.com

Will Seznam sign a B2B DPA and share a current subprocessor list for Mapy/API workloads?
Are any ISO 27001/SOC reports available under NDA covering the maps/API stack?
