Detailed Review
Euria is Infomaniak's answer to the same question Lumo asks — can a Swiss company give you ChatGPT without American servers — but it takes a different path to get there.
Instead of a standalone chatbot, Euria is built into kDrive, the Infomaniak Mail Service and kChat, so the assistant already sees your files, your inbox and your team conversations rather than starting from an empty chat window. Individuals get it free for life inside my kSuite; organisations add it to kSuite PRO for CHF 1.76 per user per month, which also includes unlimited email and up to 6TB of cloud storage per user.
Everything runs on infrastructure Infomaniak owns and operates itself in Geneva and Zurich, on open-source models rather than a licensed frontier model, with Infomaniak stating that queries are neither stored nor used for training.
The company frames this as sovereignty in the fullest sense: no hyperscaler underneath, no foreign cloud contract, and — a detail few competitors mention — waste heat from the data centres is reused to heat homes nearby. Feature-wise Euria covers web-grounded answers, writing and translation, document summarisation and audio transcription, aimed squarely at daily office work rather than open-ended research.
The trade-off is scope and polish. Euria is a productivity feature riding on top of kSuite rather than a frontier assistant competing on raw model quality, and Infomaniak does not publish which open-source models it runs or benchmark them against GPT or Mistral.
There is no dedicated pricing for Euria alone — it only exists inside kSuite or kSuite PRO — and no mobile-first marketing push like Lumo's. For a company already paying for Infomaniak email or storage, it is close to free; for anyone starting from zero, it is a suite purchase, not a chatbot signup.
What Euria does well
- Hosted exclusively in Switzerland, on Infomaniak-owned infrastructure
- Free for life for individuals inside my kSuite
- kSuite PRO adds it for CHF 1.76 per user per month
- Built into kDrive, Mail and kChat rather than a separate app
- Renewable energy, with waste heat reused to heat homes
Where Euria falls short
- No standalone Euria subscription; only bundled inside kSuite
- Underlying open-source models are not named or benchmarked
- Positioned for office productivity, not open-ended research or coding
- Smaller AI-specific track record than Proton or Mistral
Standout feature. The only assistant in this category whose company also tells you it reuses the AI's waste heat to warm homes.
