Conditionally licensed translation models

5 in the catalogue today, and the list grows as the market does. Every one with what it costs, who sells it and where it stands.

Models and services aimed at moving text between languages. A general chat model will translate too, and often well; a dedicated one earns its place with glossaries, formality control, document formats it keeps intact, and rates that assume volume. Check which direction was measured — most quality figures are for translating into English, and the other direction is harder.

Weights you can download, under a licence that asks for something in return: an acceptable-use policy, a naming requirement, a revenue ceiling above which you must ask, a restriction on training other models. The Llama and Gemma families are the familiar cases. Read the actual licence before you build on one of these — the condition is usually easy to meet and occasionally fatal, and which it is depends on your product rather than on the model.
