European ai & machine learning alternative based in France.
OVHcloud AI is Europe's sovereign AI platform covering the full lifecycle from experimentation to production, with serverless AI Endpoints, managed training, and GPU-backed notebooks. Teams move from prototype to deployed inference without leaving European infrastructure, paying usage-based pricing on H200, H100, L40S, and L4 accelerators operated under strict EU data protection.
The platform bundles AI Notebooks (Jupyter or VS Code environments ready in seconds), AI Training for distributed model runs, AI Deploy for auto-scaled production, and AI Endpoints exposing pre-built models through a simple serverless API. A curated Model Catalog lets developers try open-weight LLMs and embeddings for free, then scale inference with Standard, Fast, or Batch pricing tiers.
Key benefits:
- Serverless AI Endpoints expose pre-built models through a simple HTTP API
- AI Notebooks spin up Jupyter or VS Code GPU workspaces in seconds
- Managed training orchestrates distributed runs on H100 and H200 GPUs
- Model Catalog offers free trials of open-weight LLMs and embeddings
- Auto-scaled deployment handles traffic spikes without re-provisioning
- Usage-based pricing matches GPU cost to real consumption, not reservations
OVHcloud is headquartered in Roubaix, France, and runs 46 data centers across four continents, including SecNumCloud-qualified and HDS-certified sites for regulated workloads. AI services are fully GDPR compliant and shielded from extraterritorial US law, giving European enterprises and public-sector organisations a trustworthy alternative to hyperscaler AI clouds.
Trusted by tens of thousands of developers and enterprises across Europe to run AI workloads on sovereign, carbon-efficient infrastructure.
