EuLLM — sovereign LLMs for Europe
Modelli linguistici aperti, verticali e locali, costruiti in Europa.
EuLLM builds open-weight language models specialised for one domain and one language, small enough to run on your own hardware, and the engine to run them. No data leaves your machine.
Models
| Model | What it does | Size (Q4_K_M) | Held-out exam |
|---|---|---|---|
| legal-it-8b | Answers questions on Italian law from the statutes retrieved for it, citing them | 5.2 GB | 89.0% (base model: 80.9%) |
| legal-it-4b | The same, for smaller machines | 2.5 GB | 85.1% (base model: 77.6%) |
- How they are used. Both are built for retrieval-augmented, open-book use. The recommended retrieval (BM25, Qwen3-Embedding-0.6B and Qwen3-Reranker-0.6B, about 1.2 GB in all) is documented in the model cards.
- How they were measured. On 429 held-out questions never seen in training, with paired significance tests and with a check that needs no judge model.
- Not legal advice: they are tools for consulting the legal texts.
Engine
EuLLM Engine is a single Rust binary for running models like these locally:
- the same API as Ollama and OpenAI, so existing clients work unchanged;
- continuous batching;
- no telemetry;
- an audit trail designed for the EU AI Act.
Built with European compute
The models are trained on the Leonardo supercomputer (CINECA, Italy) through the EuroHPC AI Factory allocation EHPC-AIF-2026PG01-1147. We thank the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking for access.
