The language model Phi-1 is a Transformer with 1.3 billion parameters, specialized for basic Python coding. Its training involved a variety of data sources, including subsets of Python codes from The Stack v1.2, Q&A content from StackOverflow, competition code from codecontests, and synthetic Python textbooks and exercises generated by gpt-3.5-turbo-0301. Even though the model and the datasets are...

Frequently asked questions
Can I run phi 1 in the EU?
Yes. HostYourAI runs phi 1 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 phi 1 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 phi 1 cost?
Via the shared EU router you pay €0.03 per million input tokens and €0.06 per million output tokens, with no fixed costs. For high volume or isolation you can also run phi 1 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.
