Spanish technology company Internxt has unveiled Internxt AI, a new conversational AI platform that aims to offer a secure, ethical, and fully private experience as compared to mainstream tools like ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, and Microsoft Copilot. The new product is a major milestone in the company’s mission to become Europe’s leading brand of digital privacy and sovereign online services.
Valencia-based Internxt made its name with ultra-secure cloud storage and privacy-centric digital tools. The launch of Internxt AI is the company’s way of leading the charge to the next generation of technology conversational AI. However, unlike the competitors that heavily depend on data collection to train models or for advertising, Internxt AI is a completely private and anonymous service that complies with European regulations.
A Strictly Private, European AI
Most of the AI systems that are commercially available today gather and keep user input that can be later used for model training, product improvements, or creating advertising ecosystems. Internxt AI deliberately deviates from this standard practice. The company claims that the platform is not only free of logs, metadata, files, or identifiers but also does not need registration, cookies, or accounts.
Fran Villalba Segarra, CEO and founder of Internxt, said, “Internxt AI is the next step for European AI: it is available to everyone, but without any privacy compromise. Europe should be the one to lead the AI revolution with ethical standards as a foundation.”
In order to ensure that promise, all activities are carried out on servers located within Europe so that all the data stays within the EU and is protected by the GDPR. Besides, the platform is designed for compliance with future AI Act provisions in the EU, an act that will be among the strictest regulatory frameworks in the world concerning artificial intelligence.
A Security Architecture Built for the Post-Quantum Era
Internxt AI brings a range of measures which include end-to-end encryption, zero-knowledge architecture, and post-quantum cryptography. Among these measures is the NIST-certified Kyber 512 algorithm, which has been specifically designed to be invulnerable to the attacks of future quantum computers—a threat that has attracted mounting concern among cybersecurity experts.
Zero-knowledge design means that Internxt is not able to decrypt or see any user data even if they are forced by the third parties. This concept is what forms the basis of Internxt’s cloud storage platform and has become a key brand differentiator.
Moreover, the firm has put in place measures to block prompt-injection attacks, a vulnerability that has been on the rise in AI systems and it is planning independent audits to check the conformity, safety, and bias alleviation of the system.
Performance Without Compromise
According to Villalba Segarra, Internxt AI can deliver the same level of performance as the top conversational models but at the same time is very energy efficient. This platform is based on an open-source, European-created model with over 20 billion parameters which allow the model to achieve the advanced level in:
- Programming and debugging
- Data analysis
- Creative writing
- Document drafting
- Multilingual tasks, including native Spanish support
The platform is accessible to everyone; it is free, does not require an account, and is user-friendly enough for both casual users and professionals.
Part of a Growing Ecosystem of European Privacy Tools
Internxt is a company that has been recognized for its dedication to privacy, sovereignty, and compliance. It is compliant with several certifications such as GDPR, ISO 27001, SOC 2, ENS, and HIPAA. The company is the recipient of the Spanish Data Protection Agency’s Award for Best Startup, and this is one of the ways by which it confirms its position as one of Europe’s leading technology innovators with a focus on privacy.
Besides cloud storage and the newly launched AI tool, Internxt is working on the expansion of its portfolio of secure digital services. As a matter of fact, the company is already offering a no-tracking VPN and an AI-powered antivirus in its portfolio, and it is now working on the launch of Internxt Mail and Internxt Meet, which are two secure alternatives to Gmail and Zoom.
A Sign of Europe’s Growing Push for Sovereign AI
The debut of Internxt AI is a turn of events when such a push is more and more visible at the European institutions and among European companies. They want digital independence from the U.S. tech giants. EU has been stressing the point that there is a need for “trustworthy AI”, one that is based on ethical, transparent, and privacy preserving principles. This is a field where Internxt plans to be a flagship provider.
With the release of its latest product, Internxt is sending a message that AI, which is based on privacy-by-design, is not only feasible but that it is more than likely going to be the feature that will characterize the technological future of Europe.
