EU-owned, EU-operated
Company and infrastructure both under EU law and EU ownership.
endpoints: 6
Hosting classes
Where a model runs decides which law applies to the request. LLM EU sorts hosting into four classes and labels every endpoint with one of them.
EU region of a non-EU parent
Data stays in an EU region, but the parent company is outside the EU and may be subject to non-EU law.
endpoints: 0
On premises at the customer
Runs in infrastructure the customer controls.
endpoints: 0
Catalogue entry, hosting not documented
No inference is offered on LLM EU. Treat residency claims as unverified.

These four labels replace the bare word sovereign, which we do not use on its own. A model is called sovereign only with its class and region beside it, because ownership, operation and jurisdiction are three different facts.
