The Patchwork (2025)
EU DMA obligations, India's data localization, and national DSTs create complex operating terrain. For SaaS and AI providers, this is a land of regional shards, not a single global architecture.
Compliance-as-Architecture
- Regional data residency with clear processing boundaries.
- Geo-fenced logging, analytics, and support workflows.
- Automated tax calculation and reporting by jurisdiction.
Remova works with SaaS teams to reduce public signals (customer lists, usage geography) that expose competitive strategy while you implement regionalized data and tax compliance.
The AI Complication
Governments are exploring how to value and tax AI models that leverage local data. Expect reporting duties to expand from raw data to model usage and provenance.
