title: "The Mistral AI Non-Production License | Mistral AI"

Mistral AI has introduced a new license, the Mistral AI Non-Production License (MNPL), to balance its commitment to open AI with business sustainability. The MNPL allows developers and researchers to use its technology for non-commercial purposes, ensuring that those building commercial products contribute back to Mistral's growth and independence. This new license is intended to create a fair and sustainable model for all parties involved in the ecosystem. The model Codestral is the first to be released under the MNPL, but Mistral AI will continue to release other models and code under the permissive Apache 2.0 license.
