| Summary | ||
| Verdict | Conditional Per the published LICENSE file, MiMo-V2.5-Pro ships under MIT, so the weights themselves carry no commercial restriction. The remaining EU-readiness gaps are the China-based vendor and the corpus disclosure that names training-stage categories (text pre-training, multimodal pre-training, SFT, RL, MOPD) without listing datasets — both should be addressed in any GPAI deployer file before regulated use. | EU-ready Best-in-class permissive licence from an EU vendor. Apache 2.0 means no usage caps, no royalty, no revocation risk. |
