Certifications
Independently certified.
Audited and certified by an accredited registrar. Download the current certificate for each standard.
Data residency
Where your data lives.
Two separated, isolated datacenters on hardware we operate end to end. Choose the region your data stays in.
Primary EU region. Customer data stays inside the EU, on hardware we operate ourselves.
US region for customers who need US data residency. Currently being established.
GDPR
Built under GDPR.
Our technical team is based in Stockholm, Sweden, so HQ is designed and operated under GDPR from day one: among the world's most stringent standards for data privacy. The same strict default protects every customer, wherever they work.

Security controls
What we do, line by line.
The controls behind the platform, grounded in how it is actually built.
Infrastructure & isolation
- Every conversation runs in its own hardware-isolated microVM
- Sandboxes are torn down when their work is done
- Controlled, country-pinned egress: agents reach only what you allow
- Dedicated hardware we operate end to end, no hyperscaler dependency
Data protection
- Choice of EU or US data residency
- Encrypted in transit and at rest
- Your data is never used to train models
- Edit, delete and freeze controls over stored data
Access & identity
- Every action carries an identity chain: who asked, which agent, on whose authority
- Integration credentials encrypted at rest and scoped to a single tool
- Per-workspace integration toggles: authorize only what you want, revoke anytime
Audit & accountability
- An immutable audit log records every agent action and what it touched
- Built for EU AI Act traceability and human oversight, not bolted on
- A full, exportable history for your security and compliance teams
Application security
- Secrets held in a dedicated vault, never stored in plaintext
- Least-privilege tool access, granted per agent
- Dependencies pinned and kept current across the stack
Privacy & compliance
- GDPR-aligned data handling and data-subject controls
- ISO 27001, 14001 and 9001 certified
- Data-processing terms (DPA) available on request
