Sovereign and On-Prem: Copyl Runs Where Your Rules Require

Copyl Cloud

Copyl's default deployment: a multi-tenant platform running in EU regions, operated end-to-end by Copyl. Full feature parity, with Copyl handling infrastructure, updates and scaling.

Sovereign hosted

The same platform, isolated on European-owned cloud infrastructure and still operated by Copyl. Data and processing stay within EU jurisdiction end-to-end, with no dependency on non-European hyperscalers.

On-Prem

For organisations that require everything inside their own perimeter. The parts of Copyl that hold your data run on your infrastructure:

• Database and storage
• The agent runtime and workers that execute your tasks
• The connectors that reach your internal systems
• The audit log

What stays with Copyl

The marketplace, licensing and the model catalogue remain centrally managed by Copyl, so your on-premise environment stays current without exposing your data.

Copyl only ever sees aggregate usage counters — never prompts, documents or records.

Your models. Your approvals.

• Choose the model for each agent — OpenAI, Anthropic or Azure OpenAI — with fallbacks if one is unavailable. Change it later without rebuilding the agent.
• Run agents on local models on your own hardware.
• Actions that need approval stop and wait for a named person. Who approved what, and when, is in the audit trail.
• Delete a document and it is removed from the AI's search index. The AI can no longer find or quote it.

Why buyers ask for this

Procurement and security teams raise the same three questions before they sign:

• Data residency — where the data physically sits, and under whose jurisdiction
• EU ownership — who ultimately controls the infrastructure and the vendors behind it
• Procurement — whether the deployment satisfies the security review and contractual terms your organisation already requires

Governance travels with the deployment

Every level runs the same controls:

• A full audit trail of agent actions, approvals and changes
• Role-based access control that scopes what each agent and each user can do
• Alignment with the EU AI Act's human-oversight and traceability requirements
