HunyuanOCR 1.5 vs Surya OCR 2.5

HunyuanOCR 1.5 60

Memory 30, the only build from Tencent is the BF16 safetensors file at the root, 2.24 GB, and 2.24 GB × 1.2 = 2.7 GB, within 16 GB. ggml-org's GGUF (Q8_0 0.58 GB with a 0.73 GB projector) dates from 21 May 2026 and wasn't matched to version 1.5. Runtimes 15, Released Transformers 5.22.2 has the hunyuan_vl model, vLLM 0.33.0 registers HunYuanVLForConditionalGeneration, and llama.cpp b12242 has the architecture, which the card says the community build runs after conversion. Builds 0, Tencent publishes the BF16 weights only and tells users to convert to GGUF themselves. Terms 5, A custom licence that allows free commercial use under a use policy and below 100 million monthly active users, but not for anyone: it doesn't apply in the European Union, the United Kingdom or South Korea. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 0, Hugging Face maps no inference provider to it, and the card names no Tencent API that serves it. 30 + 15 + 0 + 5 + 10 + 0 = 60.

Surya OCR 2.5 90

Memory 30, Datalab's own Q8_0 GGUF is 0.63 GB with a 0.21 GB projector, and 0.84 GB × 1.2 = 1.0 GB, within 16 GB. The BF16 safetensors file is 1.38 GB. Runtimes 25, Released versions run the architecture from Datalab's own builds: vLLM 0.33.0, SGLang 0.5.23 and Transformers 5.22.2 from the safetensors file, llama.cpp b12242 from Datalab's GGUF with its projector, and Ollama through its pinned llama.cpp (b12177 at v0.40.16). Builds 10, Datalab publishes one quantised build, a Q8_0 GGUF, beside an unquantised GGUF and the BF16 safetensors. Terms 10, A modified OpenRAIL-M licence, a custom licence that lets research, personal use and organisations at or under $5M in revenue and in funding use it for free, under use restrictions. Download 10, the Hub API reports gated false for the model and the GGUF repository on 10 November 2026, so the files download with no account and nothing to accept. Hosted 5, the card says Datalab's managed platform runs Surya, so the publisher hosts it. 30 + 25 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 5 = 90.

HunyuanOCR 1.5 80

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (930 characters). Tool-calling format 25, Read for a document parser as what it takes and returns. Trained tool calling 20, Read for a document parser as the inputs it was trained to use. Structured output 5, Read for a document parser as typed outputs. Reasoning control 0, A document parser with no reasoning. Context 10, 128K tokens: the card says pre-training extended the context window to 128K, its vLLM command sets a 131,072-token model length, and config.json gives the language model 131,072 positions. 20 + 25 + 20 + 5 + 0 + 10 = 80.

Surya OCR 2.5 70

Chat template 20, chat_template.jinja in the repository (2,872 characters). Tool-calling format 25, Read for a document parser as what it takes and returns. Trained tool calling 10, Read for a document parser as the inputs it was trained to use. Structured output 15, Read for a document parser as typed outputs. Reasoning control 0, A document parser with no reasoning. Context 0, Datalab documents a 24,576-token model length for serving, below the 32K band. 20 + 25 + 10 + 15 + 0 + 0 = 70.

HunyuanOCR 1.5 48

Model card 8, Intended use, the architecture by reference to 1.0's unchanged backbone, and the context (128K) are on the card. Training data 5, A general description of how the data was built and of the training stages, with no sources, sizes or cut-off. Last change 15, the last commit, on 28 August 2026, changed config.json, 74 days before this check and within 90. Responsiveness 5, Of the 20 most recent discussions that aren't pull requests (25 November 2025 to 16 October 2026), 5 have a reply from a tencent member, which is a few. Version policy 5, Version 1.5 replaced 1.0 at the root of the same repository. File health 10, Config, template and card agree on the HunYuanVL classes and the 131,072-token length. 8 + 5 + 15 + 5 + 5 + 10 = 48.

Surya OCR 2.5 57

Model card 17, Intended use, limitations, the architecture (a Qwen 3.5-style vision-language model with separate detection models), parameters (689M), the serving length (24,576 tokens) and 91 languages are on the card. Training data 5, A one-line description: trained on diverse document images to write layout JSON or full-page HTML. No sources, sizes or cut-off. Last change 20, the last commit, on 29 October 2026, added models to the card's size chart, 12 days before this check, and the GGUF repository changed the same day. Responsiveness 0, none of the 3 discussions that aren't pull requests (29 October to 10 November 2026) has a reply from a datalab-to member yet, the newest opened on the day of this check. Version policy 5, Surya OCR 2 stays in its own repository and 2.5 came out in a new one. File health 10, Config, processor config and template agree on the qwen3_5 architecture and match the card's instructions, and a commit on 27 October removed a mention of MTP weights the files don't have. 17 + 5 + 20 + 0 + 5 + 10 = 57.
