Hosting & Data
1) On-prem / local hosting
Meaning: The company operates the solution on its own hardware or within its own infrastructure. In the strictest sense, not only the application runs locally, but ideally the model as well.
2) Private cloud / data center
Meaning: The solution runs in a dedicated or more clearly separated cloud environment, often with a hosting provider or hyperscaler, but in a German data center or in a particularly controlled environment.
3) EU SaaS / managed
Meaning: The provider operates the solution itself as a service. The company uses the tool as a ready-made cloud service, ideally with EU data residency.
4) Hybrid
Meaning: One part of the processing remains internal / local / in a private cloud, while another part runs in an external cloud or EU SaaS.
5) AVV / DPA
Meaning: This is the data processing agreement or Data Processing Addendum. It governs that the provider processes personal data on behalf of the customer and is bound by the customer's instructions.
6) No training
Meaning: The provider does not use your prompts, uploads, attachments, chat histories, or outputs for training or improving the general model — ideally excluded by contract.
7) Open-source / transparency path
Meaning: There is a path toward greater technical transparency and sovereignty, for example through:
- open models
- documented components
- self-hostable parts
- traceable architecture
- export / switching options

On-Prem / local hosting: indirect / not available
The website describes physical robots, SDKs, and development tools, which suggests local use of individual components. However, the website does not explicitly state an on-prem/self-hosting option for a complete service or a locally operated AI model.
Private cloud / data center: unclear
Not specified on the website. No dedicated customer environments, no private cloud, and no segregated data center options were described.
EU SaaS / managed: unclear
Not specified on the website. Instead, the website privacy policy states that personal data is stored in China; EU data residency or an EU/EEA data center was not mentioned.
Hybrid: unclear
Not specified on the website. There is no reliable description of a hybrid processing architecture between local operation and external cloud.
DPA / AVV: unclear
Not specified on the website. No AVV/DPA, no corresponding contract page, and no indication of processing on behalf of the customer according to customer instructions were found.
No training: partial
An explicit opt-out from AI training or a contractual exclusion of training the general model was not specified on the website. However, the product privacy policy mentions internal use of usage logs and user feedback for product optimization and product improvement, which tends to argue against a clear 'no training' status.
Open source / transparency path: partial
There is a dedicated open-source page with linked SDKs and development tools for E1 and N2. This creates a transparency path for parts of the ecosystem, but not full disclosure of the entire platform or a self-hostable complete service.
Data processing
For website data processing, it is stated that data submitted via forms as well as cookie/tracking data are processed and that personal data is stored in China. Also mentioned are third-party cookies or tracking services such as Google Analytics/Ads, Facebook Pixel, LinkedIn Insight Tag, Bing Pixel, Reddit Pixel, and Criteo Pixel. For product and service data, the website describes the collection of identity, device, network, usage, and shared content data as well as internal sharing within the company; specific EU/EEA hosting options, subprocessors, or data residency in the EU/EEA are not specified on the website.
Conclusion
For a German-language directory focused on usability throughout the EU/EEA, the assessment is negative. The website does provide privacy texts and an open-source section, but it does not demonstrate a viable GDPR basis for the European market. Particularly critical are the explicitly stated storage of website data in China, the absence of a DPA/AVV, subprocessor list, EU data residency, and relevant certifications. The best path identifiable on the website is not a clearly documented EU-compliant operating model, but at most partial technical transparency via SDKs and open-source components.
