Inference locations

Provider API declarations are also available on each model's endpoint API. Direct chat and Responses replies separate advertised availability from serving location in usage.inference_location; the actual serving region remains unknown when not reported.

usage.provider_usage.gateway_region identifies the TrustedRouter gateway, not the provider's inference location. A value such as europe-west4 does not mean the model ran in Europe. usage.inference_location.serving_region remains null when the provider has not reported it. Older gateways may return the gateway-only field as provider_usage.region.

Where the upstream GPUs execute the model, not the provider's headquarters, API ingress, or data storage. ZDR and confidential inference do not by themselves restrict geography.

No verified provider-specific location pin documented here.

Infrastructure declaration

Inference location not verified; no country-specific residency commitment.

Evidence

Not yet reviewed.

Provider selection alone is not a region pin. TrustedRouter's US provider filter selects company jurisdiction, not GPU location. A regional gateway hostname does not pin a downstream GPU. For a binding residency requirement, confirm the model, region, failover scope and enforced controls before sending sensitive data.
