EU-first, by architecture.
Your data is processed only on EU infrastructure — not subject to the Cloud Act. Compliance is a property of the system, not a checkbox.
// about
Private AI inference,
built in Europe.
Helmcode is an engineering team from the Canary Islands building managed, open-model inference for European companies that can't compromise on where their data lives.
// mission
Europe shouldn't choose between AI and sovereignty.
Commercial APIs are a great way to start with AI. But as it becomes core to the business, depending entirely on a handful of US providers stops being comfortable — variable bills, data leaving your perimeter, pricing and roadmaps you don't control. We think European teams deserve another option — state-of-the-art open models, on infrastructure they control, with their data never leaving the EU. That's the whole point of Helmcode.
// company
From the Canary Islands, operating Europe's private inference.
We started as a DevOps and platform team — running Kubernetes, cloud and critical infrastructure for companies that couldn't afford downtime. That work taught us where the real pain was: as AI moved into production, teams were stuck between unpredictable per-token bills and shipping their data abroad.
So we built the thing we wished existed: a managed inference platform on open models, hosted in the EU, with zero logs and a flat rate. Today we provision, monitor and operate the full stack — GPUs, vLLM, model versions, rate limiting and SLAs — so engineering teams ship product instead of babysitting hardware.
We build in the open: we publish our real platform numbers on OpenData and back the NaN builder community, giving developers access to frontier models at a fair price.

// principles
What we build on.
Six convictions that shape every technical and commercial decision we make.
Open, no lock-in.
We run open-weight models you can always access. No vendor can deprecate your API or change pricing on you overnight.
Zero logs, always.
We never store prompts or completions, and nothing you send trains a model. Privacy by default, not by policy.
Engineering over hype.
We come from infrastructure and DevOps. We optimise GPUs, vLLM and Kubernetes so your team never has to.
Flat and honest.
You pay per API key, not per token. Predictable bills, no usage traps, no surprise overage.
Built in the open.
We publish our real platform numbers and back the NaN builder community — transparency over marketing.

The people behind it.
A small, senior team of infrastructure and ML engineers — the ones operating your inference, not a support queue.
