Axeptio

What Axeptio does

Axeptio is a France-based Consent Management Platform (CMP) provider founded in 2017 in Montpellier that helps websites and mobile applications collect, manage, and prove user consent under multiple privacy regimes. The company serves three primary customer segments: brands (e-commerce, retail, sports, travel, and luxury), digital publishers (TCF-compliant media and entertainment), and digital agencies (multi-client rollouts). Marquee end customers disclosed in source material include TUI, Trenitalia, FIBA, Opéra National de Paris, Harvard University Press, Richard Mille, Mistral AI, Veepee, OKAST, and Winamp.

The product portfolio centers on a core CMP for web and a mobile SDK (iOS/Android) covering GDPR, Quebec Law 25, PIPEDA, CCPA/CPRA, GPC and TCF v2.3, supplemented by Terms by Axeptio (contractual consent), the Shake cookie/trackers scanner, the Taste browser extension, and an A/B testing module for banner optimization. The platform is differentiated by an immersive, no-code, video-led consent experience with full visual customization, native integration with Google Consent Mode v2 (Gold CMP Partner status) and Microsoft UET, plus 20+ MarTech connectors spanning CMS, analytics, server-side tracking, and ad-tech. The platform is ISO 27001 v.2022 certified and serves 200,000+ websites worldwide having processed more than 20 billion proofs of consent.

Axeptio operates a hybrid go-to-market combining direct enterprise sales, a self-serve product-led growth motion anchored by a free tier (200 visitors) with native plugins on Shopify, WordPress, and Prestashop, and a channel partner program that now spans 110+ agencies in Northern Europe following the 2025 acquisitions of Dutch CMP CookieCode and Brazilian provider AdOpt. The company is privately held, headquartered in Montpellier with a Canadian subsidiary in Montreal, and has raised a single disclosed seed round of €3.5M in May 2023 from ISAI, Evolem, and Ovni Capital.

Direct peers

• Didomi: Paris-based consent and preference management platform serving global brands and publishers. Directly comparable to Axeptio as a fellow European CMP, co-founder of the ECMPA, and competitor in the same TCF/GDPR-regulated category.
• Usercentrics: Germany-based consent management platform with strong European enterprise penetration and TCF certification. Directly comparable to Axeptio as a co-founding ECMPA member and one of the leading Google-certified CMPs in Europe.
• Iubenda: Italy-headquartered privacy and consent management provider offering CMP plus broader legal compliance tooling. Directly comparable to Axeptio as a fellow ECMPA co-founder serving the same SMB-to-enterprise European market.
• Cookiebot (Cybot): Denmark-based consent management platform with deep SMB and mid-market reach across Europe. Directly comparable to Axeptio as a Google-certified CMP serving similar brand and publisher customers with comparable regulatory coverage.

Broad incumbents

• OneTrust: Atlanta-based privacy, security, and governance platform with the broadest suite in the category (CMP, DSAR, GRC, ethics). Comparable as Axeptio's largest competitor in CMP specifically, but operates as a broad incumbent across the full privacy stack.
• TrustArc: US-based privacy management platform offering CMP alongside broader privacy program management. Comparable as a competitor in CMP, but competes from a broader incumbent position with deeper enterprise reach.

Emerging players

• Osano: Austin-based consent and privacy management platform focused on mid-market customers. Comparable as a CMP competitor with overlapping SMB and mid-market positioning, though smaller and less geographically diversified than Axeptio.
• CookieScript: Cookie consent solution targeting SMBs and small-to-mid publishers with affordable self-serve plans. Comparable to Axeptio at the SMB end of the market, particularly for users seeking lighter-weight GDPR compliance tooling.
• Complianz: WordPress-native consent management plugin serving primarily SMBs and WordPress sites. Comparable to Axeptio's WordPress integration use case, particularly at the lower end of the market, though narrower in feature depth.
• Termly: US-based privacy policy generator and consent management solution targeting small businesses and websites. Comparable to Axeptio at the SMB/PLG segment, particularly on legal-policy and consent overlap, but with less enterprise focus.
