Groq LPU Inference + SafePipe

Groq128,000 tokens<30ms latency

Groq offers the fastest AI inference using custom LPU (Language Processing Unit) hardware. Hosts open-source models like Llama at unprecedented speeds. All processing in US data centers.

Quick Start

integration.ts
import OpenAI from "openai";

const client = new OpenAI({
  apiKey: "sp_your_key",
  baseURL: "https://api.safepipe.eu/v1"
});

const response = await client.chat.completions.create({
  model: "llama-4-70b-groq",
  messages: [{ role: "user", content: "..." }]
});

The GDPR Challenge

Groq's custom silicon achieves inference speeds 10-20x faster than traditional GPU-based solutions. The LPU architecture is purpose-built for transformer models, delivering near-instantaneous responses. Groq hosts popular open-source models (Llama, Mixtral) on their infrastructure. The speed advantage is remarkable, but all data centers are in the United States.

Without SafePipe

  • ×All Groq infrastructure is US-based
  • ×No EU data center roadmap announced
  • ×Fast inference encourages more requests = more data

With SafePipe

  • Ultra-fast inference with GDPR compliance
  • Ideal for real-time EU applications
  • SafePipe latency (<30ms) preserves Groq speed

FAQ

How fast is Groq compared to other providers?

Groq's LPU delivers responses 10-20x faster than GPU-based inference. With SafePipe adding only ~30ms, you get both speed and GDPR compliance.

Why use Groq over self-hosting?

Groq offers enterprise-grade speed without infrastructure management. While self-hosting in EU would be GDPR-compliant, it can't match Groq's performance. SafePipe bridges this gap.

Does SafePipe slow down Groq's speed advantage?

No. SafePipe adds less than 30ms, imperceptible given Groq's sub-second response times. You get the speed advantage with full compliance.
