Our take
Crusoe is a small host serving six downloadable models from other labs, and its cheapest rows sit at the bottom of the price table. It lists a zero-retention option and does not train on prompts, but nothing here measures the quality of what it serves.
Use it for cost-sensitive work that can run on a small or mid-size downloadable model, and check its two cheapest rows first. It is also worth a look if you need a no-retention arrangement, which it lists as an option. Skip it if you need a verified security attestation or a confirmed European endpoint, or if you want measured evidence of output quality before you commit.
- Its two lowest input rates sit on small downloadable models, so it is the row to check first when the bill decides the choice.
- A zero-retention option is listed and prompts are not used for training by default, which covers work that cannot have prompts kept.
- Nothing in our data scores its output, so the only way to judge it is a trial on work you can check yourself.
- Headquarters country, a European endpoint and an independent security attestation are all unverified in our data, so a compliance requirement needs confirming before you commit.

We have not recorded what a router needs for Crusoe yet — no base URL and no docs link on file. That is our gap, not a sign Crusoe has no API; its own documentation is the place to look until we close it.
Privacy & data handling
These answers cover requests sent to Crusoe through OpenRouter, as OpenRouter records them, last read 3 hours ago. For Crusoe's own API we hold no answer: check its terms. SOC 2 and the data processing agreement below are hand-checked, not part of that sync.
Prompt retention: none.
