- No blanket commercial-use conclusion was made for consumer subscriptions because the consumer terms limit access to personal use and direct business integrations to separate commercial terms.
- Taxes and final localized prices vary.
Official documentation confirms the rename to Vibe and three modes: Work, Code, and Chat. Free-plan conversations may be used to improve models with an opt-out; Pro, Team, and Enterprise conversations are not used for training by default. Connectors and uploaded library documents are not used for training. Consumer terms assign Mistral's rights in outputs to the user, but consumer access is expressly personal; business integrations and products distributed to third parties are directed to Mistral's commercial terms.
