What is and isn’t public

An evidence-based summary of what this catalog has documented. It is not a verdict on the organization as a whole.

Writer's newest Palmyra X5 and X6 models are offered through its platform and API; this catalog found no downloadable weights for them. On Hugging Face, Writer has published Palmyra-X-4.3-73B and domain models such as Palmyra-Med-70B-32K under the Writer Open Model License, which permits only non-commercial use unless a separate license is obtained, and the Palmyra-mini models (September 2025) under Apache 2.0.657101189
