ATG gives you full control over which AI providers can access your data. Behind the scenes, ATG integrates with several leading AI providers, including:

European Providers

  • Scaleway: French cloud provider hosting open-weight models
  • Nebius: European AI infrastructure provider, specialized in AI, hosting open-weight models
  • Mistral: French AI company with their own models (commercial or open-weight)
  • Black Forest Labs: European AI research and development company, building its own model and specialized in image generation

Worldwide Providers

In addition to all European providers listed above, worldwide policy includes:

  • Google: US-based provider with Gemini models
  • Cerebras: US-based AI infrastructure provider specialized in ultra-fast inference
  • OpenAI: US-based provider of GPT models (ChatGPT)
  • DeepInfra: US-based AI infrastructure provider

Commercial vs. Open-Weight Models

Providers use different approaches to AI models:

  • Commercial models: Proprietary models developed and maintained by the provider (e.g., Mistral's models, Google's Gemini, OpenAI's GPT)
  • Open-weight models: Models with publicly available weights that can be downloaded, inspected, and hosted independently. Providers like Scaleway host these models on their infrastructure, giving you the benefits of open-weight transparency with European hosting.

Open-weight models offer greater transparency since their architecture and parameters are publicly accessible, allowing independent security audits and reducing vendor lock-in.

Two Privacy Policy Levels

Because protecting your data is our top priority, ATG offers two privacy policy levels:

  • EU Providers Only: Restricts AI processing to European providers (Scaleway, Nebius, Mistral, Black Forest Labs). This ensures your data remains within EU jurisdiction and is protected by GDPR.
  • Worldwide Providers: Allows all providers, including US-based companies (OpenAI, Google, DeepInfra) in addition to European providers.

To configure the AI policy, go to the Admin console, select Organization ⇒ Settings ⇒ AI Policy

European Infrastructure Beyond AI

Regardless of your AI policy choice, all ATG platform infrastructure and data storage (outside of LLM processing) are hosted exclusively by European providers in European data centers. This ensures that your core data remains under EU jurisdiction and GDPR protection at all times.

We recommend choosing the privacy level that best aligns with your organization's data protection requirements and compliance obligations. This flexibility ensures you can balance innovation, compliance, and peace of mind as AI technology evolves.
