Compare · GreenPT vs Gemini

EU-hosted AI with full data control, vs Gemini.

Gemini sits at the heart of Google's productivity stack. GreenPT sits outside it, on European infrastructure, with the data residency and energy transparency that EU organisations need.

If your data is sensitive enough that you'd rather not route it through Google's global pipelines, GreenPT is the European alternative that still gives you reasoning, vision, code, and speech in one platform.

The case

Why choose GreenPT over Gemini?

Gemini is deeply useful inside Google Workspace. For organisations outside that ecosystem, or with strict data residency requirements, GreenPT is the cleaner option.

  • Data stays inside the EU, hosted by Scaleway in France

  • Inputs never enter a training pipeline

  • 100% renewable energy with per-service guarantees

  • Independent PUE and WUE reporting

  • Not tied to any single productivity suite

Frequently asked questions

Is GreenPT a good alternative to Gemini?

Yes, particularly outside the Google ecosystem. Gemini is built into Google Workspace; GreenPT sits on independent European infrastructure with strict data residency. If you would rather not route sensitive data through Google's global pipelines, GreenPT gives you reasoning, vision, code, and speech in one place.

Is GreenPT more transparent about sustainability than Gemini?

GreenPT publishes independent PUE and WUE figures and guarantees 100% renewable energy per service. Google reports high renewable use overall but gives no service-level guarantee or detailed per-service reporting, so GreenPT's environmental claims are easier to verify.

Do I need a Google account to use GreenPT?

No. GreenPT is not tied to any productivity suite, so you can use it without a Google account or Workspace subscription. That independence is the point: your data stays inside the EU rather than flowing across Google's global infrastructure.

How does GreenPT pricing compare to Gemini?

GreenPT has clear public pricing: €4.50 per month to start and €17.50 per month for unlimited prompts, API access included. Gemini's pricing varies by Google plan and is often tied to Workspace or Cloud contracts. GreenPT offers a 14-day free trial.
