EU Data Residency Options

EU-first AI coding without giving up model choice

Route AI coding through EU-friendly providers and policies while keeping model freedom, BYOK setup, and enterprise controls your team needs.

Open weights

EU providers for coding models

Frontier labs

EU regions where providers support them

Governance

Enterprise provider allowlists

BYOK

Regional endpoints from your vendors

Why EU-first matters

Sovereign AI starts with routing control

European AI adoption is moving from experimentation to governed rollout. Kilo helps teams standardize AI coding without giving up provider choice or regional strategy.

Data Residency Expectations

European teams increasingly need to document where source code, prompts, and AI inference requests are processed.

Provider Independence

Avoid being locked into one cloud, one model vendor, or one regional strategy as AI regulations and provider options evolve.

Audit-Ready Controls

Centralize approved model and provider decisions instead of relying on every developer to configure AI tools manually.

What Kilo supports today

Be precise about what stays in the EU

Kilo gives Enterprise teams the controls to build an EU-first setup, while keeping the caveats visible for open-weight provider routes and frontier lab regional availability.

Provider controls

Make approved EU routes visible and enforceable

Enterprise provider configuration gives teams a concrete way to turn EU-first policy into day-to-day developer defaults. Admins can approve EU providers, restrict model access, and keep unsupported routes out of the engineering workflow.

Data & Privacy

Kilo is a coding agent, not a model provider

We don't host models, we don't train on your code or prompts, and we don't retain them for our own purposes. Kilo routes inference requests to the providers you choose and your data stays governed by those provider agreements.

No model hosting

Kilo does not operate AI compute or serve models. Every inference request goes directly to the provider you configure — EU-hosted, frontier lab, or BYOK.

No training or retention

Your code and prompts are not used to train models and are not retained by Kilo. Data handling obligations sit with the model provider you have selected.

Full transparency

Review Kilo's security and privacy documentation, request your data, and learn exactly how we handle it at trust.kilo.ai.

European inference partner

Inceptron brings EU-hosted open-weight models to Kilo

Inceptron is one example of the EU provider strategy Kilo supports: European-hosted inference for open-weight models through Kilo Gateway and BYOK workflows. Teams can pair providers like Inceptron with other approved EU routes and frontier lab regional endpoints where available.

EU-first architecture

A practical path to an EU-only provider policy

Start with approved providers, enforce those choices centrally, then apply the same policy across the Kilo surfaces your developers already use.

Step 1

Choose Approved Providers

Start with EU providers for open-weight models, EU-hosted frontier endpoints, and BYOK routes approved by your security and compliance teams.

Step 2

Set Organization Controls

Use Enterprise provider and model restrictions so developers only see the options your organization has approved.

Step 3

Deploy Everywhere Developers Work

Apply the same provider strategy across IDEs, CLI, Cloud Agents, Slack workflows, and Code Reviews.

Enterprise governance

Centralize AI coding policy for European teams

Kilo for Enterprise gives platform, security, and engineering leaders the controls they need to adopt AI coding without letting every team pick its own unmanaged provider path.

SSO, SCIM, and RBAC

Control who can access Kilo and apply the right permissions across your organization.

Provider and Model Allowlists

Keep teams inside approved provider routes without blocking the AI workflows they rely on.

Usage Analytics

Track adoption, spend, and model usage centrally instead of managing fragmented tool setups.

BYOK Flexibility

Use existing provider contracts and regional endpoint configurations where your vendors support them.

Keep model freedom while adding regional control

EU-first AI coding works best when provider controls are paired with model freedom, open-weight options, and enterprise governance.
