What Kimi does in physiotherapy

Core tasks in physiotherapy
Where Kimi excels
  • Flagship K3 (2.8T parameters, 1M context) and open-weight K2.6 are self-hostable
  • Multimodal: text, image and video in one architecture
  • Strong in agent work and deep research
  • Affordable API with substantial cache discounts

Kimi has a specific GDPR concern. The parent company is based in Beijing and falls under Chinese security legislation; the privacy policy does not explicitly name that jurisdiction. Do not put confidential data into the consumer app; self-hosting the open weights is the safe route. Weigh this heavily before using it in physiotherapy.

Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Caution

Patient data is special category personal data (GDPR). Use only solutions with EU hosting and a data processing agreement; consultation audio recordings must not be sent unencrypted to external servers. A therapist remains ultimately responsible for the content of the record.

The international service is provided by Moonshot AI Pte. Ltd. (Singapore); according to the privacy policy, data is stored on servers in Singapore and content may be used to improve the service. The K2 models are open-weight and can be self-hosted.

Rule of thumb Use the business variant with a data processing agreement, and keep a human in the loop for decisions that matter.
