Evanesca opens soon: this page shows how the chat will work.

Private AI agent, run in Europe AI that leaves no copy behind.

In plain words: Evanesca does not keep a copy of your messages, and every AI model it uses runs in Europe.

Start chatting — from €2

Evanesca is a private AI agent and chat — a European alternative to ChatGPT. It runs AI models from Mistral AI, the Swiss AI Initiative, Qwen, DeepSeek, Z.ai, OpenAI, Meta and Google in Europe, searches the web, writes documents and creates images, and keeps no copy of your messages. Give it a task — compare three quotes, draft the memo, make the cover image — and it works step by step, with its sources. While web search is off (the default), your messages never leave Europe, and Evanesca forgets them once the answer ends.

  • European jurisdiction
  • No training by Evanesca on your conversations
  • No permanent conversation copy
  • European AI providers only
  • Transparent data residency

Every answer carries a passport: where it was produced, under which law, and what was kept — no content.

§ 1 — What does Agent mode do? Give it a task, not a question.

Switch on Agent mode and the model you chose works step by step until the task is done: it searches the web, reads your files, writes Word, PDF and Excel documents, and creates images. It never runs code, and it stops at the spending cap you set.

  1. You give the task

    “Compare these three quotes and draft the memo for Monday.”

  2. It works, step by step

    Each search and each file it writes, shown as it happens — stop it at any time.

  3. You get the files

    Word, PDF, Excel and images, kept in your browser with the conversation.

WHAT KEEPS IT IN CHECK

  • A cap on every task€2 by default — from €0.50 to €10, never above your balance.
  • No code, everIt writes documents; it never runs a program.
  • Files stay with youIn your browser, not on Evanesca's servers.
  • Stop at any timeBetween two steps; you pay only for what ran.

§ 2 — Is it safe to give AI your documents? The things you didn't dare ask AI. Now you can.

Most AI chats keep what you send, on servers under US law — sometimes to train their next model. That's why more than one company in four has banned them at some point (Cisco, 2024). Evanesca keeps no copy of what you send, so there is no archive to leak.

§ 4 — Where does my data go? Your messages never leave Europe.

In plain words: every model Evanesca serves runs in Europe — in France at OVHcloud or Scaleway, in Mistral AI's EU region, in Germany at AKI.IO, or in Switzerland at Infomaniak — and the answer comes straight back to you. No model call goes through the US — not as a backup, not when servers are busy. Web search is off by default. If you switch it on, the queries the model writes go to Linkup, a French company — Evanesca has not verified where its servers run. Leave web search off when a message must stay in Europe.

LENGTH OF STAY
Just the answer

The connection other chats rarely mention.

Some AI services send European requests to data centres outside Europe when demand peaks — Microsoft documents it for Microsoft 365 Copilot, its business product — and most keep conversations for at least 30 days. That route isn't in Evanesca's timetable: this ticket only shows what you're not flying.

§ 7 — How is each model checked? Every model shows its checks before you use it.

Six checks, run by us on the route Evanesca uses. A model's passport shows the stamps it has — and the ones it misses or hasn't had yet. We don't hide them.

  1. Licence — read at the source, so you know what you may do with the output
  2. Provenance — traced to the maker's official release, as declared by the operator
  3. Security — injection, jailbreak, leak, exfiltration and harmful-request tests
  4. GDPR — a sovereign route: European operator, country and retention documented
  5. Benchmarks — quality and speed measured on our own route

§ 11 — FAQ Questions you might have.

What is Evanesca — a European alternative to ChatGPT?

Evanesca is a private AI agent and chat — a European alternative to ChatGPT. It runs AI models from Mistral AI, the Swiss AI Initiative, Qwen, DeepSeek, Z.ai, OpenAI, Meta and Google in Europe, searches the web, writes documents and creates images, and keeps no copy of your messages. You use it in the browser, pay per use, and every answer carries a passport: where it ran and under which law.

What is Agent mode?

You give a task instead of a question — compare offers, draft a report, build a spreadsheet — and the model works step by step: it searches the web, reads your files, writes Word, PDF and Excel documents and creates images. It never runs code, stops at the spending cap you set (€2 by default), and its files stay in your browser. How Agent mode works.

Does web search send my conversation anywhere?

No. Web search is off by default. If you switch it on, the model writes short queries and picks pages to read; only those queries and addresses go to Linkup, a French company, which fetches the results. Your conversation itself is not sent, though a query can repeat words of your message. Each search and each page read is billed, plus the pages the model reads as input tokens; the exact cost shows under the answer.

Does Evanesca keep my conversations?

No. Evanesca keeps no copy of your prompts or answers: they stay in memory only while the answer is written, and your history lives in your browser. About your messages, we keep only billing data — tokens and cost. Two exceptions on the operator side: when requests cause errors or look abusive, Scaleway may keep and read their content for up to 14 days; and Mistral AI keeps its API traffic (Mistral Large 4, Mistral Small 4 and dictation) for 30 days to monitor abuse.

Who can read what I type — Evanesca, the cloud, a government?

Nobody at Evanesca: there is no copy to read. A European operator — OVHcloud, Scaleway, Mistral AI, AKI.IO or Infomaniak — processes your words to write the answer; Scaleway may read requests that cause errors or look abusive, and Mistral AI keeps its API traffic 30 days against abuse. Nobody keeps a copy — not Evanesca, not its host — so a US order under the CLOUD Act has nothing to reach, and the operators are European companies.

Are my conversations used to train AI?

Never by Evanesca. OVHcloud, Scaleway, AKI.IO and Infomaniak state that they don't train on customer data; Mistral AI lets its customers object to training, and Evanesca's account objects, except for what is sent to Mistral Large 4: it is a preview, and Mistral's commercial terms let it use the data of preview models for training, whatever the objection. About your messages, we keep only billing data — tokens and cost, never content.

Is Evanesca GDPR-compliant?

Evanesca is built for the GDPR: every model is served in the EU or in Switzerland (EU adequacy decision) by European operators with no US parent, Evanesca never stores your prompts, and Business workspaces get an Article 28 DPA. Your history stays in your browser. No company can certify itself compliant, so we publish what we do, article by article.

Can I use Evanesca for confidential or work documents?

Yes: every model Evanesca serves runs in Europe, and contracts, payslips, code and unpublished figures are not kept by Evanesca. Web search is off by default — leave it off for them. If the data belongs to your employer or your clients, use a Business workspace: it adds a signed DPA, SSO and spending limits.

Is DeepSeek safe to use on Evanesca?

Evanesca's DeepSeek models run in Europe: DeepSeek V4 Flash on Scaleway in Paris, and DeepSeek V4.1 Flash at AKI.IO in Germany. Your prompts reach neither DeepSeek nor China. Each model's passport shows the checks it has passed — all six for V4 Flash. Evanesca does not serve DeepSeek V4 Pro: no European operator runs it for Evanesca.

Is it free? Is there a subscription?

It isn't free, and there is no subscription. You add credit to your account from €2, VAT included — enough for hundreds of everyday questions — and each answer uses a little of it; the credit never expires. The exact cost shows under every answer, usually a fraction of a cent.

Why are some well-known models missing?

Because Evanesca serves only models run in Europe. Some frontier models — open-weight ones among them — are not run by a European operator for Evanesca, so it does not offer them, not even as an option. More models will join when a European operator runs them.

What does the AI Act change for me?

For most uses of a chat assistant, the duties are transparency and basic AI literacy for your team. Evanesca tells you that you are talking to an AI, labels its answers and links each model's documentation. Some uses carry more: HR decisions about people are high-risk under the AI Act, with rules applying from December 2027.
