Probably a dumb question, but looking at OpenRouter, are there really no providers outside of the US, Singapore and China offering DeepSeek? It seems like such an obvious thing for a European or other Western provider to offer. I'm sure it's a quantum leap ahead of Mistral.

I'd love to give these models a try, but I'd rather not use a provider that trains on or stores my data (beyond standard legal requirements of course).

In case anyone finds this post and was still looking - it seems like Inceptron are a Swedish company with data centers in Finland that offer inference of Chinese models (Kimi K2.6, GLM 5.1, MiniMax M2.5), but they don't yet offer DeepSeek V4. Also their models all appear to be quantized, so presumably not the same as inference direct from the model providers.

Just checked, Crof.ai links to "Nahcrof LLC", and the terms and conditions say "These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States."

Though to be honest, I'm not sure I want to trust business workflows to a website where the only contact is a Gmail address and no physical contact address. That site looks incredibly dodgy.
