Use case · SMEs under GDPR pressure
An AI memory you keep control of.
Use AI without your knowledge leaving the EU. knowmind hosts in Germany, lets you bring your own AI key — and keeps the compliance trail clean.
GDPR taken seriously: hosting in Germany, clearly documented sub-processors, a data processing agreement under Art. 28, encryption per workspace, an audit log over security-relevant actions. knowmind is built for knowledge-intensive companies with a data protection standard — consultancies, IT service providers, engineering offices and technical documentation teams.
Problem
Mem0, Letta, Pinecone, Zep — all of them host in the US. Your memos, client notes and business decisions end up across the Atlantic. Even when your AI provider is EU-aligned, the knowledge store is the next stone in the data flow.
With knowmind
knowmind runs in Nuremberg, Germany. Your memories sit in an indexed database with strict tenant separation enforced at database level. You store your own AI key encrypted — the requests to the AI go directly to the provider you chose, and knowmind does not see the content. A security log documents every event, with retention by plan: Private 30 days, Pro 90 days, Team 12 months, Business 24 months, Enterprise 5 years.
Concrete scenarios
Case documentation in law firms
Client notes, pleadings, draft settlements — all in a GDPR-aligned memory. With your own key against an EU model (Mistral, say, or a local Llama variant), the inference stays within the EU as well.
Knowledge stays when people leave
When someone changes team or company, the project and client knowledge stays in the shared memory of the workspace — connected, traceable and retrievable from any AI tool. No quiet loss of knowledge when staff move on.
The evidence is ready for certification
Every token creation, key registration and plan change lands in the audit log. CSV export for auditors, retention 12 months on Team, 24 months on Business and 5 years on Enterprise. Traceability is included in every plan.
Recommended plan
Business
Business offers the long audit retention (24 months) and the single sign-on option — the usual frame for regulated industries. Smaller teams start on the Team plan: a data processing agreement under Art. 28 GDPR, 12 months of audit retention and several AI providers in parallel are included there already.
