| Summary | ||
| Verdict | Blocked Per the Tencent Hy Community License Agreement (Sections 1(l) and 5(c)), the licence's defined Territory excludes the European Union, the United Kingdom and South Korea, and licensees are expressly prohibited from using, distributing or displaying the model or its outputs outside that Territory. Under those terms the weights are not deployable for EU users or workloads, regardless of architecture quality. | EU-ready Per Mistral's published license, Mistral Medium 3.5 ships under a Modified MIT License: vanilla-MIT terms for independent developers, startups and most enterprises, with a revenue-threshold carve-out that routes large companies back to a paid commercial agreement. Paris-headquartered vendor with EU jurisdiction end to end and a 256k-token context. Training-data composition is not published in the model card — usual caveat for high-assurance public-sector deployments. |
