Ketch is a privacy and data-permissioning platform whose consent manager is sold self-serve in tiers, with subject rights, data mapping and risk assessments as separately priced modules. Both tools end up describing what your product does with data — the difference is where that description comes from. Theirs is whatever you tell it, entered by hand and correct only for as long as nothing changes. Ours is read out of the repository.
| Poliogo | Ketch | |
|---|---|---|
| Developer setup time | Under 5 minutes, no questionnaire | Self-serve no-code banner setup; the data-permissioning side is an integration project |
| Git / codebase scanning | Reads the repo — manifests plus an AST pass over the source | No repo access — integrates with data systems, not source control |
| Automated pull requests | Yes, on every plan including Free | No — policy changes live in the platform |
| Pricing | Free tier, then $15–$149/mo per workspace | Free tier, then published plans scaled by monthly unique users; modules priced separately |
| Key feature | Detects services from code, including raw fetch calls with no SDK | Programmatic consent enforcement across downstream systems |

A form or a settings screen can only record what you remember to tell it. That is a fair assumption for a marketing site and a poor one for a product that changes every week — the gap between what a policy claims and what the code does opens the day after you fill it in, and nothing tells you.
We are not the right tool for everyone, and pretending otherwise would waste your afternoon. Ketch is the stronger pick when:
The scan is not the feature. What the scan makes possible is.
Manifests, then an AST pass over the source, then a regex sweep for vendor endpoints. The document is built from what your code calls, not from what you remembered during onboarding.
Every scan is compared against the snapshot your last documents were written from. Adding PostHog on a Tuesday produces a policy update, not a silent inaccuracy.
The compliance change shows up in the review flow you already use, with a plain-English diff explaining what changed and which detected service triggered it. Approving is a merge.
An MCP server for Cursor, Claude Code and Windsurf. Ask your agent whether the app is compliant and it scans the workspace and answers — no dashboard, no context switch.
LLM calls, vector stores and embedding pipelines are detected and turned into the training, retention and automated-decision disclosures the EU AI Act and CPRA ask for.
Scoped read access to configuration and dependency files. Source is read in flight and never stored; what persists is a short list of service names.
GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket — or a hosting account, a no-code platform, or a ZIP upload if there is no repo.
A plain-English list of every service, what it does and what data it touches. Nothing is written until you approve it.
Documents land in the repo. From then on, a stack change opens the next one on its own.
Connect a repository and see what the scan finds in about ten seconds. Free plan, no credit card, and your existing documents stay where they are until you decide.
