| Summary | ||
| Verdict | EU-ready Serverless access to 40+ open-weight models, French-hosted. Explicit zero data-retention (billing only) and no training-on-inputs commitment. SecNumCloud qualification is offer-specific at OVHcloud — verify scope before assuming for AI Endpoints. | Blocked Chinese-hosted API, not usable for European personal data. Open weights (GLM-4 family) are available under permissive licences — see open-weight tab for self-hosting. |
