EUrouter
EUrouter is a European AI gateway that provides a unified API for accessing and intelligently routing to a wide range of AI models, including leading European models from providers such as Mistral, DeepSeek, Z.ai, and global models like OpenAI and Anthropic. It is designed specifically to guarantee EU data residency by ensuring that every request is handled within European infrastructure. The platform offers an OpenAI-compatible API, enabling developers to integrate with minimal code changes by simply updating the base URL to https://www.eurouter.ai/api/v1. Beyond basic access, EUrouter includes smart routing capabilities that automatically select the best model for price, quality, or latency, as well as budgets and limits for per-key spend caps, and real-time observability with logs, metrics, and tracing for every request. Built for European AI compliance, EUrouter aims to alleviate concerns about data privacy violations when using AI in enterprise and regulated environments, providing a drop-in solution that works with standard OpenAI SDK clients and supports advanced features like streaming, function calling, JSON mode, and vision. While pricing is not explicitly listed on the homepage, the platform offers user accounts with API keys, usage tracking, and a dashboard displaying live request logs and monthly spend. EUrouter positions itself as the unified API for EU-compliant AI, covering more than 100 models through a single integration point, with a model catalog and provider rankings available on its website.
