Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can I run granite 3.0 1b a400m instruct in the EU?

Yes. HostYourAI runs granite 3.0 1b a400m instruct on GPUs in European datacenters via vLLM. Prompts and outputs never leave the EU and there is no US cloud provider in the chain.

Is hosting granite 3.0 1b a400m instruct GDPR-compliant?

Yes. All processing happens inside the EU, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available and the subprocessor list is public. Open-source weights also mean: no training on your data.

How much does granite 3.0 1b a400m instruct cost?

granite 3.0 1b a400m instruct is available on request: through the shared EU router after a quick chat, or as your own dedicated GPU deployment billed per minute. Tell us your use case and we will set it up for you.

Is the API OpenAI-compatible?

Yes. You use the standard OpenAI SDKs with a custom base URL (https://hostyourai.com/api/v1). The Anthropic Messages API is supported as a drop-in as well.
