Models

With anonymization on, anymize replaces names, addresses, file numbers and other personal data with placeholders before any model sees the text. That applies to every model on this page. The model choice decides the tool, not the protection.

Smart Select picks a fitting model for each request from the models you may use. You can also pick one model in chat and stick with it.

This list is the model catalog admins see under Governance > Models. anymize's own models (Waterfall, Fountain) are not in it, because every account has them without a choice of provider. Self-connected models (BYOM) are not in it either.

Every model has a jurisdiction. An EU model runs in data centres in the EU. An international model runs at the maker or an operator in the USA.

Many models are available from several operators, for example Google Cloud (Vertex AI) and AWS Bedrock. For each request anymize picks the operator with the best availability, but only within the model's jurisdiction. An EU model never falls back to an operator outside the EU. If everything in the jurisdiction is down, the model is briefly unavailable instead of running somewhere else.

Some models exist in both jurisdictions. The international version then carries (USA) in its name.

The models in anymize run with zero data retention: the provider does not store prompts or answers, only technical metadata such as time, model and token count. No provider uses the data for training.

The exception is Claude Fable 5, 5.1 and 5.2. For these Anthropic stores prompts and answers for 30 days for abuse detection, and zero data retention is not available for them. With anonymization this only concerns placeholders.

In a team, an admin can block such models with the rule “Only models with zero data retention”. They then show greyed out in the model picker, with the reason next to them.

Makers and operators switch older models off at some point. Once an operator has a retirement date, anymize takes it out of routing 7 days before. Your requests then run through the remaining operators in the same jurisdiction, and nobody sees an error on the day.

If no operator is left for a model, it disappears from the picker and its page here is removed.
