Frequently asked questions

Can I run shieldgemma 9b in the EU?

Yes. HostYourAI runs shieldgemma 9b 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 shieldgemma 9b 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 shieldgemma 9b cost?

Via the shared EU router you pay €0.05 per million input tokens and €0.12 per million output tokens, with no fixed costs. For high volume or isolation you can also run shieldgemma 9b as a dedicated hourly GPU instance.

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.

[!Note] This model card is for the new versions of the Gemma 4 family optimized with Quantization-Aware Training (QAT), which allows preserving similar quality to bfloat16 while dramatically reducing the memory requirements to load the model. Four versions of the QAT checkpoints are available: Unquantized QAT checkpoints (Q40): Half-precision weights extracted from the QAT pipeline, ideal for custom downstream compilation and research. Available for Gemma 4 E2B, E4B, 12B, 26B A4B, and 31B, and their drafter models. GGUF (Q40): Ready-to-deploy formats for broad ecosystem compatibility. Availabl
