Trained by Tencent (Hunyuan / Hy), in the HunyuanOCR family all its cousins, older versions
Assessment. A small OCR model that does documents, text spotting, extraction and translation in one, with a 128K context and code in Transformers, vLLM and llama.cpp. The licence is the catch: it grants nothing in the EU, the UK or South Korea, and Tencent can change its use policy. No quantised build, safety results or data sources.

- Last release
From our research 11 facts checked against the vendor's pages
- Surface graded
- The open weights at huggingface.co/tencent/HunyuanOCR, version 1.5 at the root of the repository, read from the model card, the files and their metadata, the config, the chat template, the licence, the commit history and the runtimes' own code at their latest releases on 10 November 2026. Tencent's company facts come from our other Tencent listings. The GitHub repository's docs and the paper weren't read. Nothing was downloaded or run
- Model
- 1,119,925,744 parameters in the files. HunYuanVLForConditionalGeneration, a 24-layer language model with a 27-layer vision encoder. Version 1.5 keeps 1.0's backbone and changes the training, with images up to 4K and a 128K context. The card gives no parameter count
- Tasks
- Document parsing, text spotting, information extraction and translation of text in images, chosen by the text prompt. The card says 1.5 adds low-resource and ancient-script OCR and questions over several images
- Languages
- The metadata says multilingual, English and Chinese. The card names no others
- Files
- One safetensors file in BF16 at the root (2.24 GB) with chat_template.jinja, config, processor and tokenizer files and the LICENSE. A dflash folder holds a 0.36 GB draft model and one Python file for speculative decoding, and a v1.0 folder holds the previous version. No pickle files. Hugging Face lists a SHA-256 for the large files
- Licence
- The Tencent Hunyuan Community License Agreement, dated 25 November 2025. It doesn't apply in the European Union, the United Kingdom and South Korea. Elsewhere it allows use, changes and distribution under an acceptable use policy that Tencent may update, and anyone with more than 100 million monthly active users must ask Tencent for a licence. Tencent's Hy3 and Hy-Memory are Apache 2.0; this isn't
- Runtimes
- The card documents Transformers (5.13.0 or later, with its own HunYuanVL classes), vLLM (0.25.1 or later, with Tencent's scripts) and llama.cpp after converting the checkpoint to GGUF yourself. Released Transformers 5.22.2, vLLM 0.33.0 and llama.cpp b12242 carry the architecture. SGLang 0.5.23 doesn't. Speculative decoding in llama.cpp needs a fork
- Input and output
- One image, or several, with a task prompt. The default document prompt returns Markdown in reading order with tables as HTML and formulas as LaTeX, leaving out headers and footers. Tencent's client adds early stopping and Markdown normalisation for document parsing
- Recommended settings
- temperature 0, top_p 1, top_k off and repetition_penalty 1.08, per the card, with a 131,072-token model length for vLLM and a 10,240-token context in its llama.cpp example
- Hardware
- No memory figure on the card. The root file is 2.24 GB in BF16. The card's unified environment needs CUDA 13, and its llama.cpp route is for CPUs, consumer GPUs and laptops
- Training data
- A general description on the card: an agent-driven system it calls Agentic Data Flow built new data for weak spots, the third pre-training stage added that data with multi-image and historical OCR data, and post-training refined the fine-tuning data and used reinforcement learning. No sources, sizes or cut-off
Facts verified 10 November 2026 from vendor docs, repositories and package registries. JSON · Markdown
Strengths
- Four OCR jobs in one 1.1B model, with several images in a request
- A 128K context, trained for it per the card
- Released Transformers, vLLM and llama.cpp have the architecture
- Fits any machine: 2.24 GB in BF16
- The card documents prompts, settings and three ways to run it
Weaknesses
- The licence doesn't apply in the EU, the UK or South Korea
- Tencent can update the acceptable use policy, and a 100 million user threshold applies
- No GGUF or other quantised build from Tencent
- Version 1.5 replaced 1.0 in the same repository
- A few of the questions on the repository answered
- No limitations, safety results or data sources on the card
Before you call it notes for agents
- Check where you and your users are first. The licence grants no rights in the European Union, the United Kingdom or South Korea
- Download with
--exclude "v1.0/*"so the old version isn't fetched - Serve it with vLLM 0.25.1 or later at
--max-model-len 131072, or use Tencent's scripts on GitHub for its sampling and post-processing - Use temperature 0, top_p 1 and repetition_penalty 1.08
- The default document prompt is in Chinese and is on the card. Other tasks take their own instruction as the prompt
- For llama.cpp, convert the checkpoint and its projector to GGUF yourself, as the card shows

Terms and privacy, as read
Terms of service not read yet
TL;DR Not read by us yet, so nothing here is checked. The document is published and scores 4 of 10 until we read it.
Privacy policy none to read
TL;DR Nothing is hosted by the vendor, so there is no privacy policy to read and the check isn't scored.
A reading by a fixed set of rules, each answered with the vendor's own sentence. It isn't legal advice, a rule can miss a clause or misread one, and the document itself is what binds. How it's read and scored.
The licence names Tencent. The domain's registration date is carried from our other Tencent listings.
Nothing is hosted under this listing, so the model licence stands in for terms of service and no privacy policy is scored.
The changelog is the commit history, 50 commits or more since 18 November 2025, the last two on 26 and 28 August 2026 changing config.json.
Tencent's Security Response Center takes reports company-wide, per the Hy3 listing; nothing on the card links it.
Checked 2026-11-10 against the vendor's own pages and the domain registry. Provenance is half of Transparency & trust.

| 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. | |||
| Riskchecked 10 November 2026 | 20%30.8 | 13.8 | |
| File safety 25, safetensors only, no .bin, .pt or .pth files, and no Python at the root. Provenance 15, the files sit in the tencent organisation, which Tencent's GitHub repository for the model links to (10), and the Hub gives a SHA-256 for the large files (5). Safety evaluation 0, no safety results on the card. Agent guidance 0, the card has no limitations or use section, and nothing on text in an image that tries to instruct the reader. Licence risk 0, 15 less 5 for limits beyond the law (an acceptable use policy and three territories where the licence doesn't apply), 5 for terms the licensor can change (Tencent may update the policy from time to time) and 5 for the 100 million monthly active user threshold. Security programme 5, Tencent's Security Response Center takes vulnerability reports company-wide, as the Hy3 listing records (5). 25 + 15 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 5 = 45. | |||

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. | |||

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.

Graded 56.6 C methodology v0.7
Fix list 14 items, the biggest gain first
Everything this grade says the listing lacks, from the reasons above, the checklist, the provenance checks, the deductions, what we couldn't check and what the review panel asked for, with the steps, ready to paste into a coding agent working on HunyuanOCR 1.5. A fix counts at the next check, once it's public.
You're lucky. As part of the beta, your first month is free.
What we couldn't check
- Terms is 5 because the licence doesn't apply in three regions, which the 10 band's word anyone rules out. A reading that takes the band by its threshold and use policy gives 10
- It's listed on a site run from London, where its licence doesn't apply. The listing says so first in the notes for agents
- Structured output is 5 on the card alone. Tencent's GitHub docs may document typed output for spotting and extraction
- ggml-org publishes a GGUF from May 2026. Whether it's of version 1.5 wasn't established, so it isn't recorded as a build
- Capability is pending because no independent results were looked up on the day
- unchecked on 10 November: the GitHub repository's docs and issues, the paper (arXiv 2607.04884), the dflash folder's code, and Tencent's security pages, read for the Hy3 listing

Probe metrics
Not measured yet. Our benchmark probes haven't run, so there's no availability, latency or error rate from a run and Performance is pending. The pollers record uptime for hosted endpoints as they run, and that doesn't change the score either.
Pricing & changes
Free Free Free to download. The Tencent Hunyuan Community License allows commercial use under Tencent's acceptable use policy, except for anyone with more than 100 million monthly active users, and it doesn't apply in the European Union, the United Kingdom or South Korea, where it grants no rights. Running it yourself costs little hardware, 2.24 GB in BF16 (checked 2026-11-10).
No hosted version of these weights has a price on OpenRouter, so what a task costs is your own hardware and power. What tasks cost on hosted models.
