Osano or Sendora — pick the trade-off, not the marketing.
Osano ships a polished banner + cookie scanner + DSAR workflow + vendor-risk dashboard. Enforcement still lives in your messaging code (Email, Push, SMS) — Osano can't reach inside Mailchimp / OneSignal / Twilio to stop a revoked recipient. Sendora's consent ledger sits in the same tenant as the senders, so flipping `enforce_consent` actually blocks email broadcasts at dispatch. DSAR cascades across 7 tables in one POST instead of orchestrating per-vendor connectors.
Mid-market consent + DSAR platform. Banner + cookie scan + vendor monitoring. Downstream enforcement is on you.
Same consent + DSAR primitives, riding the platform that already holds the customer + send tables enforcement happens against.

Why teams switch to Sendora
- If your messaging + analytics + auth already run on Sendora, Osano's per-vendor connectors are doing work Sendora has internally.
- Erasure is one POST instead of orchestrating per-vendor connectors with their own retry budgets.
- Real send-time enforcement: revoked consent stops email broadcasts at the dispatch line, not after delivery.
When Osano is the right call
- You need Osano's banner + scanner + vendor monitoring out of the box (Sendora doesn't ship these).
- Your stack is mostly NOT Sendora; Osano's per-vendor connectors do legit work elsewhere.
Common questions
Does Sendora's DSAR runbook handle data outside Sendora?
No — only the rows in the 7 Sendora tables. For data in other tools, you'd still need Osano (or a custom orchestration). The win is collapsing Sendora's own data into one POST instead of being one of the per-vendor destinations Osano needs to call.
Audit trail comparison?
Both ship per-action audit logs. Sendora also gates erasure on a recent-passkey-UV step-up (Touch ID / passkey within last 5 minutes) + the literal string "DELETE" in the request body. Belt-and-braces against fat-finger.
Privacy
GDPR / CCPA / DPF compliance enforced at the platform layer — flip one toggle, every marketing email checks consent at dispatch.
OneTrust / Cookiebot manage a consent banner. They don't stop your messaging tool from emailing someone who revoked consent — that's on you to plumb. Sendora puts consent state on the Customer profile + flips a single org-level switch (`enforce_consent`) that makes Email refuse to dispatch broadcast / workflow sends to recipients without a granted `marketing` row. No record OR revoked record → `email_sends` row with `status='failed' provider='suppressed' suppressed_reason='no_consent'` for audit visibility. Transactional / auth / ticket bypasses — those are platform-critical. Push + SMS enforcement follow the same posture (in-flight; phone column + indexes already shipped). DSAR / right-to-erasure cascades across every Sendora module. Audit trail of every consent change is a first-class log.
