Your best AI investment starts at home.
The real learning with AI happens on the couch and at the kitchen table in the evening, not in the meeting room. A sponsored, EU-hosted home account brings that use safely under the same agreements as at work, builds AI literacy, and stays owned by the employee.
About us
Local and aligned
Localign takes its name from Local and Alignment. Our mission is to bring world-class AI to people, on their own terms. For those who take AI literacy seriously, that begins with one hard guarantee: identifiable data is processed exclusively within the EU.
Most platforms look European on the surface, but still run on American cloud and software services. A Localign home account is EU-hosted and falls under GDPR, so the everyday AI use of employees and their families falls under the same agreements as at work, instead of leaking away to free American services.
The context
The real learning with AI happens at home, not at the office.
Companies spend heavily on licences, pilots and dashboards, but around 95% of corporate AI investments deliver no measurable result. The real practice happens at home: over 70% of AI use is private. More on this in our article The best AI investment is at home.
The opportunity
What employees and their families do with it
Where AI literacy really forms
The skill forms through hundreds of small attempts, at home: from a tricky letter to homework and a recipe. A safe account makes that practice valuable and protected.
Tricky letters and email
A complaint to the insurer, a letter to the municipality or a polished email, in plain language.
Homework and explanations
Help children with homework at their level, with step-by-step explanations and an age filter.
Compare the best models
Try multiple top models side by side, because which model is best differs per task.
Daily practice
Recipes, plans, texts: the hundreds of small attempts where a feel for AI develops.
Work and private in one
The same secure environment for a work question and for life alongside it.
Safe for the whole family
Guardrails and age limits protect children from unsuitable chatbots.
This is possible with a free American chat service too. The difference: with Localign everything stays EU-hosted and under GDPR, nothing is used to train models, and the account is owned by the employee.
It is this simple
You ask. Localign arranges it.
One question, whether it comes from the office or the kitchen table. Localign picks the best model, keeps the data in the EU and applies age limits where needed.

Control
Access to the best models, safely at home
The home account gives employees and their families access to all top models, EU-hosted and under GDPR. External models only through a security shield, and nothing is used to train models.

These are the models the account can use. Top models side by side, with a security shield that masks sensitive input before sending.

On your terms
Three promises you can build on
The skill that transfers
Daily practice at home builds the feel for AI that people miss at the office. The skill that stays, even after a move to another job.
Under the same agreements as at work
EU-hosted and under GDPR, with a security shield and age limits. Shadow use comes into view, instead of leaking away to free American services.
The account belongs to the employee
No inspector looking over your shoulder: the account belongs to the employee and the family, and stays theirs, even after a move. Ownership, not oversight.
Who stands behind it
Built by people who take AI literacy seriously
Localign was founded by people who know responsible AI and AI literacy from the inside, from the classroom to cybersecurity.

Mathyn Scheerder
CTO and co-founder
Mathyn Scheerder worked as Tech Lead at the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) on protecting national digital infrastructure, and built secure data platforms as a data engineer.
Frequently asked questions
Isn't AI free anyway?
Yes, and that is exactly why it is easy to get it wrong. The free version often puts people on the smallest model, exactly the type that failed most often in our own exam test. A sponsored account gives access to the best models and the room to try several side by side.
Isn't a home account a data leak waiting to happen?
The alternative is not risk-free; it is risk you cannot see. Employees already use AI out of sight, via free accounts outside any processing agreement. An EU-hosted, sovereign account brings that use under GDPR and into view.
Do we monitor what people do at home?
No. The account belongs to the employee and the family and stays theirs, even after a move. No access to private use: ownership, not oversight.
Where is the data processed?
Exclusively by European companies, within the EU and under GDPR. Data is not processed outside the EU and not used to train models.
What does the employer get out of it?
AI literacy that transfers to work, making use that already exists safe and visible, and an attractive benefit, in line with tuition or childcare schemes.
