Fast inference on open models does not have to come from the US. Run the same models close by, on European GPUs.
Fireworks AI built its reputation on a single promise: the fastest inference for generative AI. The company invests heavily in its own serving stack, and the benchmark numbers show it. If tokens per second were the only metric, the story would end there.
Yet European teams keep moving away from it, and almost never because it was too slow. The reason is nearly always the same: Fireworks is a US company, and the moment a customer, a DPO or a tender asks for European data processing, the conversation stalls. HostYourAI serves the same kind of open models from GPUs in European datacenters, behind an API your existing code already understands.
Start with what is true about the positioning. Fireworks delivers serious speed on popular open models and offers fine-tuning, so a customised model can be served straight away. The developer experience is polished. For a US product with US users there is little reason to look further.
For a European product the calculation changes, for two reasons: physics and law.
The latency your user feels has two parts: how fast the model generates tokens and how long the request spends on the wire. A round trip from Amsterdam to a US datacenter easily costs 80 to 120 milliseconds before a single token exists. For streaming chat that means a visibly slower first token.
Run the model in a European datacenter and most of that network cost disappears. With vLLM as the serving layer on modern GPUs, generation speed is solid too. For European end users, "close and fast enough" often beats "far away and very fast" in practice.
from openai import OpenAI client = OpenAI( base_url="https://hostyourai.com/api/v1", api_key="hyai-...") client.chat.completions.create( model="llama-3.3-70b", messages=[{"role":"user","content":"Hallo!"}])
A US provider falls under the US CLOUD Act wherever the data sits. Since Schrems II, that is exactly the lens privacy lawyers apply to transfers to US parties, and contract language does not resolve it.
If your prompts never leave the EU, there is no international transfer to justify. HostYourAI provides a DPA, publishes its subprocessors and never trains on customer data. Your records of processing get one clean line.
All inference runs in European datacenters, operated by a Dutch company, with no US cloud in the chain. Your residency requirement needs no footnote.
Use the shared Router for pay-per-token access to open models such as Llama, Qwen, Mistral, DeepSeek and GLM, or spin up a dedicated GPU instance that runs your model exclusively on vLLM. The API is OpenAI compatible, including SSE streaming, and a /v1/messages endpoint covers teams on the Anthropic SDK. Billing is prepaid with a 99.9% SLA on the platform. Browse the model catalog and the pricing page for the details.

for chunk in stream:
print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content or "", end="")On raw tokens per second, a specialised US stack sometimes wins. Add the network latency from Europe and the difference end users feel is often small or even reversed. Testing takes minutes in the Playground.
No. The endpoint is OpenAI compatible with streaming. You change the base URL, the key and the model name.
Yes, on a dedicated instance. HostYourAI does not offer fine-tuning itself, but open weights trained elsewhere deploy with vLLM inside the EU.
Prepaid credit, per token on the Router or per hour on a dedicated instance. No subscription and nothing running when you are idle, thanks to scale-to-zero.
They are processed in European datacenters and never used for training. A DPA is available and the subprocessor list is public.
From model hosting to a customer-facing API, it is built for developers and businesses who want their AI running on infrastructure they actually control, inside the EU.
Your data and your models stay on European GPUs. GDPR-friendly by design.
Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, Mistral, FLUX and plenty more. Pick one and it is warm in minutes, with no DevOps on your end.
Point your existing client at the Router and keep your tools. No rewrite, no lock-in.
No infra to manage. Pick a model, get an OpenAI-compatible URL, ship.
Choose from the Model Garden or paste any HuggingFace ID. Set the VRAM and pick an EU GPU.
We deploy vLLM, run readiness probes, and hand you a warm OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible URL plus an API key.
Point your client at the Router. It auto-routes to a warm instance, idles GPUs when nobody is online, and logs every request.
If a US cloud is off the table, HostYourAI gives you the same developer experience on European infrastructure.
Citizen data that legally has to stay in the EU, with full auditability.
Finance, healthcare and legal teams under GDPR, DORA and the AI Act.
Ship AI features your customers trust, without a US sub-processor.
Deliver private AI for clients on infrastructure you can stand behind.
HostYourAI keeps your models, prompts and data on European GPUs. It is built for teams that care about compliance, reliability and real control.
GPUs and data residency inside Europe. Your prompts never leave the EU.
Run open-weight models with no black boxes or hidden telemetry.
GPUs idle when nobody is online, so you only pay for what you run.
Your infra, your keys, your models. Leave whenever you want.
Yes. HostYourAI runs open models on GPUs in European datacenters via vLLM. Your prompts and outputs never leave the EU and there is no US cloud provider in the chain.
Yes. All processing happens inside the EU, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available and the subprocessor list is public. Open weights also mean no training on your data.
Yes. Point your existing OpenAI or Anthropic client at our Router (https://hostyourai.com/api/v1), change only the base URL and API key. No rewrite, no lock-in.
Pay-as-you-go on one prepaid credit balance: the shared router per token or a dedicated GPU per hour. Free to start, no minimum, no fixed monthly fee.
Text and image models on dedicated EU GPUs. Every model tested on our own hardware.
