The European Alternative to OpenRouter

TextCortex EU is the only AI model router built from the ground up for European compliance. While OpenRouter routes traffic globally, we guarantee that your data never leaves EU jurisdiction.

Why European Teams Are Switching

GDPR isn't a checkbox — it's a fundamental requirement. US-based AI routers expose your data to:

  • CLOUD Act — US government data access without EU oversight
  • Schrems II non-compliance — Invalidated Privacy Shield framework
  • Cross-border transfers — Requires complex SCC documentation
  • No DPA available — Most providers won't sign Article 28 agreements

What You Get with TextCortex EU

EU Data Residency: Guaranteed (OpenRouter: No)
GDPR Compliance: Certified (OpenRouter: Self-assess)
DPA (Article 28): Included (OpenRouter: Not available)
