Corti: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

Corti is a Copenhagen company that builds AI for healthcare and life-science developers. Its offer includes speech-to-text for clinical transcription, a medical coding API for ICD-10 and CPT codes, and a text-generation API that turns transcripts into clinical documentation. It also provides open-weight language models through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and an agentic framework with clinical agents. Services are offered as usage-based APIs, with a sovereign-cloud option.

Corti is based in Copenhagen, Denmark, and was founded in 2016. The sources consulted name no majority shareholder; its investors include Prosus Ventures, Atomico and Chr. Augustinus Fabrikker, which holds less than 10 per cent. The website states that models run on European hardware and that data stays within the customer's region, but it names no specific data centres. A European organisation should confirm the hosting location and the data processing agreement in writing.

Why digital sovereignty matters with Corti

Corti is headquartered in DK and therefore falls under European law: the GDPR, NIS2 and the Data Act. No foreign legislation can compel access to your data.

Data is hosted exclusively in the EU, so Corti scores best on data residency.

Corti is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs Corti together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
