Hoe wij rangschikken
Many EU enterprise buyers have contractual data-residency requirements that rule out models without an EU region. We rank based on availability of EU-hosted inference endpoints, GDPR SCCs, and price. Model quality matters but residency is the gating criterion.

Check the provider's sub-processor list for GDPR transfers outside the EU.
Consider open-weight self-hosted options if compliance is extreme.
