Transparency alternatives to Kilo
Other Coding assistants vendors we measure, sorted by how much we found at them and not at Kilo. This is a comparison of disclosure, not of features or fitness.
12 shown of 14 that differ from Kilo on at least one criterion we measured for both. Public transparency score, not a product or security rating.
Kilo has 6 gaps in what we could measure: Data processing agreement, Subprocessor list, Uptime SLA with a figure, No third-party tracking before consent, Notice before subprocessors change, Named privacy contact. The column “Found there, not found at Kilo” is the one that closes them.

Only criteria we could measure for both are counted. Where we could measure one and not the other, the row is silent: that would be a statement about our measurement, not about either vendor. Every single result with its source is on the two profiles.
