European models or European hosting: what compliance needs
Privacy law cares where your prompts go and who handles them, not where the model was built. The model's maker has to document the model, wherever it is based. We run the model you pick on GPUs reserved for you, in a European data centre you agree with us.

Germany-only LLM inference: serverless or dedicated?
If your data must stay in Germany, a shared pay-per-token API will not do. You need GPUs reserved for you, in a German location your contract names. Our shared API runs in Paris and Finland, and we agree dedicated locations per contract.

Is the UK covered by EU inference? UK data residency for LLM APIs
No: an EU-hosted LLM API runs in EU countries, and the UK is not one of them. UK companies may still send personal data to one, because UK law approves that transfer. We run our serverless models in Paris and Finland, which suits contracts that allow EU locations.

EU-sovereign inference: model-by-model data residency
Data residency means the place where your data is processed. For an LLM API, that place depends on the model each request reaches, not on the company that sells access. Before you send personal data, check the stated region of each model your code calls, including any model an alias picks for you.

Region pinning for LLM APIs: controlling where requests are processed
Region pinning means a provider processes your requests only in data centres in the places you choose. You set it by the service you call and by the data processing agreement (DPA), the contract covering your data. Check where the model runs, and also where the provider's staff and subcontractors can reach your data.

Which open-weight models are actually hosted in Europe, and where
Every model on our models page runs on EU-hosted infrastructure, as each model's own page showed on 23 October 2026. Our serverless models run in Paris and Finland, and we don't keep your prompts or use them for training. So you can document residency per model ID from one page each.

AI Data Residency, Explained Properly
Data residency discussions combine storage, processing and operator jurisdiction. Check all 3, then assess the actual data flows and contract rather than treating an EU region as a compliance verdict.

EU vs US Inference API Latency: The Cost of Transatlantic AI
Sending inference requests across the Atlantic adds roughly 75 to 160 milliseconds of unavoidable fiber latency. For modern compound AI systems, that delay multiplies exponentially, degrading user experience while exposing sensitive data to US jurisdictions.

Sovereign AI Infrastructure in Germany: A 2026 Guide
With the EU AI Act generally applicable since 2 August 2026, European AI teams are moving beyond hyperscaler credits toward sovereign infrastructure. This guide examines the technical and regulatory requirements for building compliant, cost-effective GPU stacks in Germany.

GDPR Compliant LLM Inference: A Guide for European AI Teams
European AI startups face a critical choice between high-performance inference and the data residency terms customers and regulators expect. As hyperscaler credits expire and scrutiny intensifies, teams must move to infrastructure whose processing locations and transfer mechanisms they can document, without giving up low latency.

Data Residency for LLM APIs: A Guide for European AI Teams
European AI startups face a critical choice: optimize for speed using US-based APIs or prioritize compliance to win enterprise contracts. This guide explores why data residency is no longer optional for teams scaling LLM applications in regulated markets.

EU Data Residency AI News: The Rise of Sovereign GPU Infrastructure
As the EU AI Act enters its enforcement phase, the era of 'compliance-blind' AI development is ending. Discover how sovereign GPU infrastructure in European data centers is solving the data residency puzzle without sacrificing ML performance.
