I really want to use tools like Claude Code or self written agents (LangGraph) with top notch models without relying on US clouds or buying 5-10k€ hardware.
I had a look at Scaleway, IONOS and OVHcloud, but they all only offer the same outdated medium size models like gpt-oss-120b, llama-3.3:70b, Qwen3:32b. Scaleway at least just recently added Qwen3.5:397b.
The best I could find so far seems Nebius. The problem here: they do offer MiniMax-M2.5, GLM-5, Qwen3.5 but again just on US servers. Only the older versions like MiniMax-M2.1 or GLM-4.7 are EU hosted.
Is there just no infrastructure available in the EU to host such models at scale? I really hope that is not the reason.
What do you use? Please help!
Edit: You just now found that Nebius requires Google, GitHub, or Microsoft account to sign up. Sad.
Hmmh. I think you already found the well-known services. I found one more: regolo.ai from Seeweb?!
But I'm not aware of anything that properly fits what you're asking for.
I'll mostly tinker around with RunPod instances. But that's not what you're looking for. If you find something good and cheap (and prepaid) I might have some use-cases for it as well. Like connect my Home Assistant voice assistant to it.
