| **PublicAI** | *public* | Policy-based | Undisclosed | A gateway for **publicly developed, sovereign models** — open-weight models built by national/public programs rather than private labs. Privacy is policy-based (no enclave); energy mix is not disclosed. |
| **Regolo** | *green* | Policy-based — **zero data retention** | **100% renewable** | EU-hosted (Italy, Seeweb) with a stated zero-data-retention policy: prompts are not stored or reused. Compute runs on 100% renewable energy. |
**Reading the gradations:**
- **Privacy:** *architectural* (Tinfoil) beats *policy-based* (GreenPT, PublicAI). An
enclave protects you even if the provider is compromised; a policy protects
you only as far as the provider keeps its word. Both are better than a
provider with neither.
- **Green energy:** *100% renewable* (GreenPT) beats *undisclosed* (Tinfoil,
PublicAI). GreenPT reports its energy mix; the others do not, so we can't
claim greenness for them.
- **Sovereignty:** *publicly developed* (PublicAI) is its own value — the models
come from public/national AI programs, built as public goods rather than
proprietary products. It's a third axis, independent of privacy and energy.
- **Privacy:** *architectural* (Tinfoil) beats *policy-based* (GreenPT,
Regolo). An enclave protects you even if the provider is compromised; a
policy protects you only as far as the provider keeps its word. Both are
better than a provider with neither — and Regolo adds a written
zero-data-retention commitment on top of its policy.
- **Green energy:** *100% renewable* (GreenPT, Regolo) beats *undisclosed*
(Tinfoil). GreenPT and Regolo both run on 100% renewable energy; Tinfoil's
mix is not disclosed.
Trade-offs are real: the most private option (Tinfoil) isn't the greenest, and
the greenest option (GreenPT) isn't the most private. The point of the co-op is

### Image generation
`🌱 regolo/qwen-image` (Regolo, EU-hosted, zero data retention) generates
images from a text prompt. In the chat, use the 🎨 button and describe what
you want — no prompt engineering needed. Via the API:
```bash
curl https://gateway.inference.coop/v1/images/generations \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ***" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"model": "regolo/qwen-image", "prompt": "a watercolor painting of a mountain lake", "n": 1, "size": "512x512"}'
```
The response returns base64-encoded JPEG(s). Billed per pixel generated.
