Breaking News: European AI-on Demand Platform Launches to Revolutionize AI Transfer and Integration
In a groundbreaking move, the European AI-on Demand platform (Aiod) has become the central hub for artificial intelligence in Europe. With new services geared towards both research and business, the platform aims to accelerate the transfer of AI technologies while embedding European values into the process.
Applications and Tools Across Industries
The extended AI-on Demand platform is set to revolutionize access to European AI tools, data, and services. Developed under the EU projects Deployai and Ai4europe, the platform boasts seamless integration with prominent European institutions, including the Fraunhofer IAIS and the University of Cork. The goal is to bundle distributed AI resources and foster interoperability to bolster the transfer of research into practical applications.
For research, the platform offers more than 500,000 so-called “ki-Assets,” from annotated data records to complex analysis tools. For businesses, particularly small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and start-ups, the platform provides market-ready applications, development environments, and access to European high-performance computing (HPC) resources.
Trust and Transparency at the Forefront
One of the unique aspects of Aiod is its focus on trust, transparency, and responsibility. Joachim Köhler, the project coordinator for Deployai at Fraunhofer IAIS, states, “The platform is a uniform approach for European artificial intelligence that drives the transfer of AI research into applications for the economy.” This foundation ensures that all services and tools adhere to European values of security, data protection, and ethical responsibility.
Supporting the Entire AI Lifecycle
The Aiod platform aims to accompany the entire lifecycle of AI applications, from concept to market readiness. With tools like AI Builder, Ai Runner, and a business navigator, companies can efficiently develop, train, and deploy AI solutions. For developers, the platform offers generative AI services, eCommerce marketplaces, and access to the latest foundation models—providing a robust alternative to dominant U.S. offerings.
Barry O’Sullivan, coordinator of AI4Europe, emphasizes the platform’s capabilities: “This upgrade will intensify the collaboration and have noticeable effects throughout Europe through more efficient AI research, development, and application.”
Strategic Importance for European AI
With substantial backing from the Horizon Europe and Digital Europe programs, the platform will be continuously enhanced until 2027. The political dimension of Aiod is clear: it is a critical component of the EU’s AI continent initiative, reflecting Europe’s commitment to technological advancement.
As an archive, Aiod links research results with specific fields of application, enabling effective technology transfer. AI4Europe, led by the University of Cork, creates a growing ecosystem where developers, innovators, and scientists collaborate.
This strategic initiative positions Aiod as a cornerstone of European AI strategy, providing a digital hub that makes European AI resources visible, usable, and marketable. Its dual focus on research and the economy, combined with its emphasis on trust and transparency, sets it apart as a model for European technology policy.
