Testimonials

Teams that run on our EU AI gateway

We chose Orq.ai to replace our internal setup with a production-ready AI Gateway that meets our governance, scalability, and cost-monitoring requirements.

Benjamin Kleppe,

GenAI Lead at bunq

Where Orq.ai really stands out to me is how comprehensive it is. It truly covers the entire process from A to Z. That’s something I genuinely haven’t seen elsewhere in the market.

Niels van der Heijden,

AI Lead at Brand New Day

Connecting to Orq.ai’s platform means we no longer need to revise our own code. The platform provides full control over the functionality of the models, saving considerable time and manual adjustments.
