| Summary | ||
| Verdict | 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. | Conditional Per the NVIDIA Open Model Agreement, Nemotron-3 Nano Omni is commercially usable with a NOTICE-file attribution requirement and U.S. export-compliance obligations. Multimodal MoE (31B total / 3B active) accepting video, audio, image and text input, with reasoning-style chain-of-thought output. Training data is unusually well-documented (1,395 datasets, modality breakdown, CSAM scanning) — useful for AI Act Article 53 mapping. Vendor jurisdiction remains the US. |
