## The panel's verdict

Equicty NV is a Belgian company in Waregem selling EQUstable for stables and EQUclub for riding clubs. The bench's strongest mark is boarding and billing at 6-7: invoices are created inside the system, with a pro-forma-to-paid flow, recurring and subscription invoices, credit notes and per-line VAT rate and currency, and billable items linked to planned tasks land automatically in the owner's open costs. Its weakest is pricing transparency at 0-2: the pricing page names the two products and a public API as a plan option, but we found no public price figures at all, so the annual cost cannot be computed from anything published. The remaining categories run 4-6. The boarder portal and facilities and lessons span 4-6: judges crediting member self-service bookings and online payment score high, while others dock marks because the captured portal pages describe riding-club members rather than livery boarders. Sovereignty spans 4-6 too — high marks credit the privacy policy's named EU hosting and deletion timelines, low marks weigh the unconfirmed ownership and subprocessor picture.

**Speaks for it:**
- Invoices are created inside the system, with a pro-forma-to-booked-to-paid flow, recurring and subscription invoices, credit notes and per-line VAT rate and currency selection.
- Products and services linked to a health task flow automatically into the owner's open costs.
- Dewormings and vaccinations auto-schedule with reminders, every health task names the responsible staff member, and the per-horse health report can be downloaded or printed.
- Members book lessons and arena slots themselves and pay online by card or Bancontact or offline by cash, transfer or invoice.
- The privacy policy states all personal data is hosted in the EU on GCP and Firebase, with Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers outside the EEA and deletion spelled out (soft-deleted after 90 days, permanent within 180 days).

**Held against it:**
- Pricing transparency scores 0-2, with no public price per horse, box or module and no setup fee, minimum term or VAT treatment anywhere captured.
- We found no public information on SEPA direct debit with mandates, prepaid credit, dunning, or an export to a named accounting tool such as DATEV.
- We found no public information on structured feeding or supplement plans, a medication log with dose, or passport and UELN data.
- We found no public information on shift or holiday planning or time recording for employees and mini-jobbers.
- The independently checked attributes mark ownership, entity jurisdiction and subprocessor exposure unknown, with Google Analytics and a Freshdesk helpdesk in the chain and no public information on a data processing agreement or security statement.

**Best for:**
- You run a riding club and want members to book lessons and the arena themselves, buy packages upfront and pay online.
- You want invoicing inside the stable software, with services from the daily plan flowing into owners' open costs.
- You want an attributed per-horse health record — dates, tasks and the responsible staff member — that you can print or hand to a vet.
- Your daily round runs on recurring tasks assigned to named, colour-coded staff, with reminders and a completion check mark.

**Avoid if:**
- You need to compute an annual cost from published prices before a sales conversation — the captured pricing page shows no figures.
- You run a livery yard where boarders send instructions staff acknowledge and you control which records are released — the captured portal pages describe riding-club members.
- You require confirmed ownership and subprocessor transparency before signing — the independently checked attributes mark them unknown, and Google Analytics and a Freshdesk helpdesk sit in the processing chain.

## Scores by judge and criterion

### The judges

- **The Boarding-Stable Owner** (v1.0): Runs a forty-box Pensionsstall and loses a few hundred euros a month to blanket changes and leg wraps nobody wrote down. Wants extra services logged where they happen and billed without retyping, direct debit that collects on time, and one system instead of a spreadsheet and three WhatsApp groups.
- **The Stable Manager** (v1.0): Runs the morning round with two grooms, a trainee and a mini-jobber, and is the one the vet calls. Wants feeding plans the night shift can read on a phone, medication logged with who gave what, rotas and time records that hold up, and an app that still works at the far end of the barn.
- **The Boarder** (v1.0): Pays five hundred euros a month for her mare and works full time. Wants to see what the farrier did, why the bill has three extra wraps, and whether her turnout instruction was read — and does not want the other boarders, or an analytics company, seeing her horse's file.
- **The Riding-School Lead** (v1.0): Runs lessons six days a week on twelve school horses, plus weekend clinics with guest riders. Wants lessons and arena slots booked without double bookings, school horses not over-worked, ten-lesson cards that count themselves, and course payments that land in the same books as board.
- **The Tax Adviser** (v1.0): Does the books for a dozen equestrian businesses and knows that board, lessons and sold hay are not taxed alike. Wants invoices with GoBD-compliant numbering, VAT per service, a DATEV export instead of a shoebox of PDFs, and time records for the staff that would survive a customs minimum-wage check.
- **The Skeptic** (v1.0): Has seen stable apps arrive with a launch post and vanish two seasons later with the horse records inside. Reads "billing" that is a price list, "staff management" that is a chat, geofencing with no word on staff consent, and an imprint that names a riding stable rather than a software company — and asks what happens to the data then.
