Infomaniak

What is Infomaniak?

Infomaniak Network SA is an independent Swiss cloud and digital infrastructure provider headquartered in Geneva and founded in 1994. The company is privately held, staff-controlled and operates its own TIER III+ datacentres in Switzerland. Its services are developed in Switzerland and include web hosting, cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes, collaboration tools, streaming, ticketing and AI Services.

Infomaniak AI Services provide sovereign inference for open-weight AI models, with data hosted and processed exclusively in Switzerland. Its API supports OpenAI-compatible chat completions, completions, embeddings and streaming, making it compatible with existing OpenAI client libraries. Infomaniak also operates Euria, its consumer-facing AI assistant.

Infomaniak at a glance

Infomaniak main AI capabilities

• Text generation and chat: Infomaniak serves open-weight LLMs through APIs designed for conversational applications, content generation, summarisation and other text-based workflows. The models currently available on Eden AI can be accessed through the same unified API used for other providers.
• Function calling and structured outputs: Supported model capabilities include function calling and structured outputs, making Infomaniak suitable for agentic workflows, tool integration and applications that require responses in predictable schemas rather than unstructured text.
• Document Q&A and RAG-friendly workflows: Ministral 3 14B supports document Q&A and can be used in retrieval-augmented generation architectures where your application supplies retrieved context to the model. The Infomaniak deployment supports a maximum input of 100,000 tokens. 
• Sovereign Swiss hosting: Infomaniak operates the infrastructure used for inference in its own Swiss datacentres, with data hosted and processed exclusively in Switzerland. This makes infrastructure ownership and jurisdiction part of the technical deployment model, rather than only a contractual data-residency commitment.

When should you choose Infomaniak?

• If you have a hard data-residency or sovereignty requirement, Infomaniak is relevant when workloads must remain in Switzerland and you want to avoid US CLOUD Act exposure and US hyperscalers in the inference path.
• If you want open-weight models without operating GPU infrastructure yourself, Infomaniak provides managed inference over a wider catalogue of open models, while Infomaniak models currently available through Eden AI can be integrated without maintaining a separate provider account.
• If sustainability or ESG criteria influence vendor selection, Infomaniak provides unusually concrete infrastructure data: its Geneva D4 datacentre recovers 100% of consumed electricity as heat, with an Energy Reuse Factor close to 0.95.

Swiss jurisdiction is materially different from simply choosing an EU data-residency region. Switzerland has an EU adequacy decision under Article 45 GDPR, allowing EU-to-Switzerland data transfers without Standard Contractual Clauses, while Infomaniak also remains outside US CLOUD Act jurisdiction and operates its own inference infrastructure.

Infomaniak models, features and capabilities on Eden AI

Relevant selected features for Infomaniak

Infomaniak’s AI offering on Eden AI is centred on generative text workloads, including chat completion, structured generation, function calling and document-oriented workflows. You can access Infomaniak models currently available on Eden AI through the same API and authentication layer used for other providers, while coverage of Infomaniak’s broader catalogue is progressively extended.

Infomaniak models currently available on Eden AI

The table below reflects current Infomaniak model availability on Eden AI. Additional models from Infomaniak’s wider AI catalogue are being progressively added.

Ministral 3 14B Instruct is the largest model in Mistral AI’s Ministral 3 family. Released in December 2025 under the Apache 2.0 licence, it supports capabilities including function calling, structured outputs and document Q&A. On Eden AI, this Infomaniak deployment exposes a 100K context window.

The wider Infomaniak model catalog

Infomaniak serves a broader set of AI models directly from its own Swiss infrastructure. Eden AI coverage of this catalogue is being progressively extended, so the models below should not be interpreted as all being available through Eden AI today.

• LLMs: Qwen3.5-122B-A10B-FP8, Ministral-3-14B-Instruct-2512, Gemma 4 31B, Kimi K2.6, NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B-FP8, Mistral Small 4 119B, Qwen3.5-397B-A17B-FP8 and swiss-ai/Apertus-v1.5-70B. Apertus is the Swiss open public LLM and is particularly relevant to sovereignty-focused deployments.
• Embeddings and rerankers: bge-multilingual-gemma2, all-MiniLM-L12-v2 and Qwen3-Embedding-8B for embeddings, alongside BAAI/bge-reranker-v2-m3 and Qwen3-Reranker-0.6B for reranking workflows.
• Speech-to-text: Whisper V3 for converting spoken audio into text.
• Image generation: Flux schnell and PhotoMaker V2 for generative image workloads.

These models and services run on Infomaniak’s infrastructure in Switzerland. Eden AI is progressively extending its Infomaniak integration across this wider catalogue.

Supported Infomaniak capabilities

What can you build with Infomaniak?

Swiss-hosted assistants for regulated industries

Infomaniak is a strong fit for internal or customer-facing assistants in banking, insurance, healthcare and legal environments where data location and jurisdiction are part of the architecture decision. A typical workflow starts with user questions, internal documents or case data as inputs. Your application retrieves the relevant context, sends the prompt to an Infomaniak-hosted model, and returns a generated answer, summary or structured response.

The deciding factor is sovereignty rather than the assistant pattern itself. Data is hosted and processed exclusively in Switzerland, customer data is not used for model training, and no US hyperscaler is present in the inference path. Switzerland’s EU adequacy decision under Article 45 GDPR also supports EU-to-Switzerland data transfers without Standard Contractual Clauses. For regulated teams, this can simplify the technical and legal architecture compared with using infrastructure subject to US jurisdiction.

Public-sector and administration workflows with procurement-grade sovereignty requirements

Public-sector teams can use Infomaniak for document-heavy administrative workflows where procurement requirements extend beyond simple regional hosting. Inputs can include policy documents, forms, correspondence or retrieved knowledge-base content. An application can pass this material to an Infomaniak-hosted LLM for summarisation, classification, document Q&A or structured extraction, then return a human-readable answer or machine-readable output for downstream systems.

The differentiator is the combination of Swiss jurisdiction and infrastructure ownership. Infomaniak operates its own datacentres in Switzerland, keeps processing in Switzerland and does not route inference through a US hyperscaler. Its public DPA and sub-processor disclosure also provide clearer information for vendor assessment. This makes Infomaniak relevant when a public organisation needs to evaluate not only where data resides, but also which legal regime and infrastructure operators can potentially govern access to it.

Privacy-first SaaS features

SaaS teams can use Infomaniak to add summarisation, extraction and classification features to products that process customer data without introducing US-jurisdiction exposure into the inference path. Inputs might include support conversations, business documents, application records or user-generated text. Your product sends the selected content to an Infomaniak-hosted model, receives a summary, structured extraction or classification result, and returns it directly to the application or another processing step.

Sovereignty becomes the deciding factor when your customers require stronger assurances about where inference takes place and which jurisdiction applies. Infomaniak hosts and processes data exclusively in Switzerland, does not use customer data for model training and operates the underlying infrastructure itself. Through Eden AI, your team can combine this deployment choice with unified API access, provider routing and centralised usage monitoring while progressively gaining access to additional Infomaniak models.

Infomaniak use cases by industry

Why use Infomaniak through Eden AI?

One API for Infomaniak and every other provider

Eden AI lets you access Infomaniak models through the same API and API key used for the rest of its provider catalogue. Instead of maintaining a separate integration, authentication flow and billing relationship for each vendor, your team can call Infomaniak alongside models from 60+ providers through one interface. As Eden AI progressively extends Infomaniak coverage, additional models can be added without changing your application architecture.

Compare Infomaniak with other models in the same catalog

Eden AI makes it easier to compare Infomaniak with alternative providers using the same prompts, application data and integration layer. Your team can evaluate Swiss-hosted Infomaniak inference against providers such as Scaleway, OVHcloud, Nebius or Mistral AI without rebuilding the surrounding application each time. This is useful when model choice depends on jurisdiction, region coverage, catalogue breadth or operational requirements rather than on one provider alone.

Add fallback and routing for production reliability

Eden AI lets you make Infomaniak part of a broader routing strategy rather than treating it as an isolated integration. Sensitive, regulated or sovereignty-constrained traffic can be directed to Infomaniak, while workloads with different requirements can be routed to other providers through the same application layer. You can also define fallback paths so production traffic has alternative providers available when a selected route is unavailable or unsuitable, without maintaining separate provider-specific integrations throughout your codebase.

Monitor usage and costs across providers

Using Infomaniak through Eden AI centralises usage and cost monitoring across your AI stack. Instead of reviewing separate provider dashboards and billing systems, your team can track Infomaniak consumption alongside the other models and providers used by the application. This is particularly useful for multi-provider architectures where routing decisions, workload volumes and model choices need to remain visible from one operational layer.

Key benefits of using Infomaniak on Eden AI

• One integration: Access Infomaniak and 60+ other AI providers through a common API and API key.
• Faster comparison: Test Infomaniak against other sovereign and global providers without rebuilding your integration.
• Flexible routing: Direct regulated or sovereignty-sensitive workloads to Infomaniak while routing other traffic elsewhere.
• Production fallback: Configure alternative provider paths to reduce dependency on a single inference provider.
• Unified monitoring: Track usage, model consumption and costs across Infomaniak and the rest of your AI stack.

Best Infomaniak alternatives and comparisons on Eden AI

Infomaniak vs Scaleway

Infomaniak and Scaleway both fit sovereignty-focused AI strategies, but they sit under different jurisdictions and infrastructure models. Infomaniak processes data exclusively in Switzerland, operates its own Swiss datacentres and benefits from Switzerland’s EU adequacy decision under Article 45 GDPR. Scaleway is a French and EU provider, making it the more direct fit when an organisation specifically requires EU jurisdiction rather than Swiss jurisdiction.

The other distinction is catalogue positioning. Infomaniak combines AI inference with a broader Swiss full-stack cloud platform and serves a growing catalogue of open-weight models. Scaleway is more naturally evaluated as a European cloud and AI infrastructure provider with broader EU-native positioning.

Choose Infomaniak if Swiss jurisdiction and infrastructure ownership are priorities; choose Scaleway if your requirement is specifically French or EU jurisdiction.

Infomaniak vs OVHcloud

Infomaniak and OVHcloud are both relevant when sovereignty matters more than access to a US hyperscaler, but their profiles differ. Infomaniak is privately held, staff-controlled and operates its own infrastructure in Switzerland, while OVHcloud is positioned around European cloud infrastructure and EU jurisdiction. Infomaniak also differentiates through its environmental infrastructure design, including heat recovery from its Geneva D4 datacentre.

Region strategy is another consideration. Infomaniak is centred on Swiss processing, with CH and EU availability through Eden AI, whereas OVHcloud is better aligned with organisations looking for a broader European cloud footprint.

Choose Infomaniak if Swiss ownership, jurisdiction and infrastructure-level sustainability matter most; choose OVHcloud if broader EU cloud positioning is the priority.

Infomaniak vs Mistral AI

Infomaniak and Mistral AI operate at different layers of the AI stack. Infomaniak is an infrastructure and cloud provider that hosts and serves open-weight models from multiple model developers on Swiss infrastructure. Mistral AI is primarily the model developer itself, so using Mistral AI is closer to choosing first-party access to Mistral’s own model family.

Infomaniak is therefore relevant when the decision is about where inference runs, which jurisdiction applies and whether the infrastructure remains outside US hyperscaler control. Mistral AI is more relevant when your technical choice is centred specifically on Mistral models and first-party model access.

Choose Infomaniak for sovereign Swiss hosting across open-weight models; choose Mistral AI when first-party access to Mistral’s own models is the main requirement.
