AI is moving fast. European enterprises shouldn't be left behind.

The short version of a longer story.

§ 01

COPENHAGEN

The people we knew working in Danish enterprises were fascinated by AI, but couldn't figure out how to use it safely. The tools were impressive. The compliance questions were unanswered. The gap was obvious.

COPENHAGEN

Three months of building, refining, and throwing away the parts that didn't work. The MVP came together — OurAI Chat, model choice, policies, and an audit foundation. It worked. More importantly, it showed us exactly what a version we'd stake the company on would have to be.

§ 03

COPENHAGEN

We incorporated OurAI ApS — a Danish company, under EU jurisdiction, no shortcuts. The same legal and architectural decisions we'd been designing toward from day one, now formalized.

Then we rebuilt it from scratch. The MVP proved the idea — it was never going to be the foundation. v1 kept the lessons and none of the code: the careful version of Chat, model choice, policies, and audit, built for production. We deployed it and onboarded our first customers. That's the OurAI you're looking at.

Our team.

Three things we're unwilling to compromise on.

Confidentiality is the foundation.

The loudest AI products in the world are also the most casual with the data feeding them. We think that's a category mistake. Confidentiality is not a tier — it's the floor.

Sovereignty is infrastructure.

EU jurisdiction, Helsinki data, Danish company. The boring, contractual version of 'your data stays yours' & the only version that matters when a regulator shows up.

Models, not vendor.

Frontier models, open-weight models — routed under the right terms, audited the same way. We are not in the business of locking you into one lab's roadmap.

Working on this with us?

We hire slowly and on purpose. If you'd rather build the careful version of this, we'd like to hear from you.
