|---|---|---|
| Summary | ||
| Verdict | Conditional Fastest inference on the market (LPU hardware) but US-hosted with no EU region currently advertised. Fine for R&D and non-personal-data workloads; not deployable for regulated EU PII. | EU-ready OpenAI-compatible API with inference servers only in Paris. Explicit commitment that inputs are not collected, read, reused, or analysed. Strong posture for French/EU workloads. |
