| Summary | ||
| Verdict | EU-ready A 12B model from Paris-based Mistral AI, co-trained with NVIDIA and shipped under Apache 2.0 with a 128k context window and strong coverage of major EU languages. EU-headquartered vendor plus a fully permissive licence make this one of the cleanest open-weight choices for organisations prioritising AI Act and GDPR alignment, with the main caveat being the usual lack of detail on the training corpus. | EU-ready Fully open model: weights, training data (Dolma 2), training code, checkpoints, and logs all published. Apache 2.0 across the board. Strongest choice when AI Act transparency obligations matter. |
