Matproof vs Tugboat Logic (OneTrust)
Purpose-built EU compliance vs an acquired US platform
Purpose-built EU compliance vs an acquired US platform
Tugboat Logic was a compliance automation startup acquired by OneTrust in 2022. Now part of the OneTrust GRC suite, it focuses on SOC 2 and ISO 27001 for US-centric organizations. Matproof is an independent EU-first platform built specifically for DORA, NIS2, and DSGVO compliance in financial services.

Tugboat Logic was absorbed into OneTrust's massive GRC suite, losing its standalone identity. Matproof is an independent, focused platform purpose-built for EU financial services compliance - with native DORA, NIS2, and BaFin reporting that OneTrust does not offer.
