AI platforms by the regions OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and Meta each list (Muse: the known US and Canada launch)

This page judges the queried IP by its region and network type; it does not measure the exit you use when visiting the platform. The home page checks the diagnostic request exit and response for some platforms. Account sign-in, chat and API inference are not verified.
