Ask for a capability. We own the vendor.
Under the hood it's the Sovereign Routing Protocol — and it speaks plain OpenAI. Keep your SDK, your code, your tooling. Set model to a capability and sovrgn resolves the right provider behind it, under your jurisdiction's residency rules. The capability is the contract; the vendor is ours to manage — so switching providers, or losing one, never touches your code.
Frontier reasoning — the strongest model for the job.
Low latency — fast, cheap, good enough at scale.
In-jurisdiction residency — routes in-country, or fails closed.
# Point at your country's instance — nothing else changes. from openai import OpenAI client = OpenAI( api_key="sk_...", base_url="https://au.sovrgn.ai/v1", ) resp = client.chat.completions.create( model="sovereign", # capability, not a vendor messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Hello"}], extra_headers={"X-Sovereign-Residency": "au-only"}, ) print(resp.choices[0].message.content)
Firm your inference, or float it.
Power grids have priced this for a century: firm capacity is reserved, guaranteed and can't be curtailed; interruptible capacity is cheaper because it yields when firm load needs it. Inference is now priced the same way — and sovrgn lets you choose per call, under your jurisdiction.
Reserved. Guaranteed. Yours.
Committed, in-jurisdiction capacity with guaranteed throughput and an SLA — the baseload your critical paths run on. It can't be bumped when the market tightens. The price you pay for certainty.
Spot-priced. Deferrable. Cheap.
Batch and off-peak work that rides spare capacity at a discount — and steps aside when firm demand arrives. Run it overnight, on the cheap side of the planet, while the sun is somewhere else.
The market mechanics are the real ones: merit-order dispatch (cheapest capacity first), locational pricing (price tracks where the work lands), and a day-ahead/real-time split — firm reserved ahead, spot cleared on a ~5-minute cadence. Provider tiers and discounts cited are vendor-published and current; they move.
We don't just route. We guarantee the route.
"Plan B" only means something if it engages without you. The 2024 Red Sea cable cuts made the lesson physical: routes fail, not just vendors. These are the three mechanisms underneath every sovrgn instance — the parts that turn a bad day for a provider, a cable, or a jurisdiction into a non-event for you.
Automatic failover
Every capability resolves an ordered chain of providers. A retryable upstream failure reroutes to the next candidate transparently — one inbound call, one billed unit.
Circuit breaker
A per-provider breaker trips open after consecutive failures, skips the target that's down, then half-open probes before closing. A bad provider day never becomes your bad day.
Fail-closed residency
Send X-Sovereign-Residency: au-only and sovrgn routes only in-country. No silent offshore fall-through — if nothing in-jurisdiction can serve it, you get a clean, structured rejection.
