A sovereign AI inference gateway that guarantees 100% Australian data residency. Same powerful models. Same familiar API. Your data never leaves the country.
Australian organisations are locked out of AI adoption — not by technology, but by regulation and risk.
Every major AI provider — OpenAI, Anthropic, Google — routes inference through US and overseas servers. Your data crosses borders before you get a response.
US-headquartered companies are subject to the CLOUD Act, meaning the US government can compel access to your data — regardless of where it's stored.
Building sovereign AI capability internally costs millions and takes over 2 years. Most organisations don't have the budget or expertise.
Legal and compliance teams are rightfully blocking AI adoption. Without data sovereignty guarantees, the risk is simply too high for regulated industries.
A unified, OpenAI-compatible gateway that routes every inference request to Australian infrastructure. Drop-in replacement — switch in minutes, not months.
Drop-in replacement for OpenAI's API. Use your existing SDK code, change one URL, and you're running on sovereign infrastructure.
Intelligent routing across Azure Australia, Firmus data centres, and self-hosted OSS models. Best model for each task, always in Australia.
Full visibility into where your data is processed, which models are used, and audit-ready compliance reporting for every request.
Know exactly what you're spending per model, per team, per project. No hidden fees, no surprise bills. Complete cost transparency.
Same interface. Same SDKs. Guaranteed Australian data residency on every request.
Replace your OpenAI endpoint URL with api.auai.com.au and every request is automatically routed to sovereign Australian infrastructure. No code changes. No new SDKs. No migration pain.
Every response includes a data_residency: "australia" confirmation so you can verify compliance programmatically.

Full intellectual property assignment. Your data, your outputs, your property.
All vendors and subcontractors bound by confidentiality agreements.
Your data is never used to train or fine-tune AI models. Period.
Data is processed and immediately removed. Nothing is stored or logged.
Zero telemetry sent to overseas systems. Complete isolation from foreign access.
Real scenarios. Real compliance requirements. One sovereign solution.
"We wanted to deploy an AI-powered customer service chatbot, but our APRA obligations meant we couldn't send customer data to US servers. AUAI let us go live in weeks instead of the 18 months our in-house team quoted."
"Our agency needed AI to automate citizen service responses, but Protected certification was non-negotiable. AUAI's IRAP-ready infrastructure and zero data retention meant our security team could finally say yes."
"Analysing patient reports with AI was transformative — but the My Health Records Act made offshore processing impossible. With AUAI, every inference runs in Australia and we have the compliance trail to prove it."
