Pendra is a managed inference platform, designed specifically for regulated industries such as healthcare, legal, government, and finance. It allows users to run open models securely within their jurisdiction, on their hardware or Pendra-managed hardware, aiding in the handling of sensitive data.
The platform complies with UK GDPR and guarantees zero data retention along with end-to-end encryption for enhanced data security. Pendra works through a single, OpenAI-compatible API, enabling teams to install and call models on their trusted hardware.
It offers a variety of models that can be called through their API without any need for changing underlying hardware. Equipped with Python and Node.js SDKs, it works compatibly with OpenAI and Anthropic endpoints.
The service is available at a fixed monthly price. In addition to providing managed infrastructure, Pendra also enables deployment of workers on your hardware.
