Sovereignty isn't a feature.
It's a commitment.
Three questions decide whether an AI platform is sovereign for your organisation: who can be compelled, where it runs, and whether you can leave. Here are our answers.
OurAI is a Danish company with no US parent or foreign holding company. Both the corporate entity and your data sit inside the EU's legal perimeter.
Managed in Helsinki on EU-owned infrastructure, or self-hosted on your own servers. You decide where your data lives and who operates it.
Built on open-weight models, open databases, and standard protocols. Your data is always in formats you can read, export, and take elsewhere.
Sovereignty is decided per workspace.
A frontier US model running on EU infrastructure still routes your prompt to US-controlled inference. We don't pretend otherwise — instead, we surface the trade-off where it can be decided meaningfully, at the workspace level, by the team that owns the work.
Out of the box, OurAI runs on EU-hosted infrastructure with EU-jurisdiction models and open-weight alternatives. Your data stays inside the EU's legal perimeter — no configuration required.
- —EU-hosted inference by default
- —Open-weight models available on our servers or yours
- —Subject to EU law only
- —Admin controls the model envelope per workspace
If your team needs frontier capability from US or CHN providers, those models are available, but the jurisdiction follows the model. Your admin decides who can reach outside the EU perimeter, and who can't.
- —US frontier models subject to US law
- —CN frontier models subject to PRC law
- —Jurisdiction is explicit, not hidden
- —Per-workspace policy controls access
Where it runs.
By default, your data lives in Helsinki, Finland. Backups stay within the EU & are never replicated outside. For organizations that need full control, self-hosting moves the workload inside your own firewall.
Need it inside your own perimeter? Self-host the workload on your infrastructure — conversations and inference never leave your walls.
Read about self-hostingAn open stack, by design.
Closed formats are how lock-in compounds. Every layer of OurAI is built on open-source tools — no black boxes, no proprietary formats, no vendor lock-in by design.
Built on PostgreSQL, FastAPI, and Caddy — the same tools powering some of the world's most trusted infrastructure. No licensing risk, no vendor roadmap dependency, no surprise acquisitions.
Conversations, audit logs, and configurations live in PostgreSQL — standard SQL, not a proprietary store. Export everything as JSON, Markdown, or CSV at any time, with no bespoke SDK required.
Choose from open-weight and frontier models per workspace. Swap a model with a policy edit, not a migration — no dependency on any single vendor's roadmap, pricing, or jurisdiction.
Sovereign by construction.
