1.3.2 Latest date of data (acquisition/collection for model training):
The data used to train the model is composed of different datasets with varying publication and cutoff
dates, with datasets collected as late as May 2026 for model training. The model will not be continuously
trained on new or dynamic data while in production, but subsequent versions may undergo additional
fine-tuning and be released as later versions.
1.3.3 Is data collection ongoing to update the model with new data collection after deployment?
☐ Yes  ✓ No
1.3.4 Date the training dataset was first used to train the model: March 2026

1.3.5 Description of the linguistic characteristics of the overall training data:
Text datasets used to train the model are primarily in English. Training data also covers a majority of EU
official languages (e.g., Bulgarian, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French, German,
Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish, Swedish) and
additional non-EU languages including Chinese, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi, Hebrew,
Turkish, Persian, Thai, Vietnamese, and Indonesian, among others.
1.3.6 Other relevant characteristics of the overall training data:
Training data combines publicly available, commercially licensed, and crawled web data (inherited from
the MAI-Thinking-1 base) with code-specific public datasets. Mid-training and post-training data for the
coding variant differs from MAI-Thinking-1: a higher proportion of code, repository, pull request (PR), and
commit data is used, and synthetic software engineering (SWE) task generation is used at scale.
1.3.7 Rationale or purpose of data selection:
Training data for MAI-Code-1-Flash was selected to maximize coverage of software engineering tasks (PR
creation, repository understanding, code quality assurance (QA), debugging, instruction-following) while
retaining the broad reasoning and language understanding capabilities of the MAI-Thinking-1 base.
Public coding repository data, academic and technical PDFs, and synthetic SWE tasks were prioritized to
support strong performance on code generation, repository-level reasoning, and developer-facing
instruction-following.

content types. These include publicly available reference and knowledge sites, blogging and personal-
publishing platforms, social and professional networks, educational and study platforms, document-
sharing services, technical Q&A and developer communities, scientific and academic publishers and
archives, news outlets and news archives, creative-writing and design communities, e-commerce
marketplaces, and large search portals. General web hosting, blogging, social, and e-commerce
platforms make up a large share of the total. The content is substantially multilingual. Alongside English,
it includes significant volumes of Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, German, and Russian, as well as
a large East-Asian presence in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. A substantial share of the top domains
are China- or Japan-based. Prominent country-code TLDs include .jp, .cn, .co.uk, .es, .fr, .ca, and .nz,
alongside the .eu institutional domain. The top domains include government and public-sector sources,

2.4 User data
2.4.1 Was data from user interactions with the AI model (e.g. user input and prompts) used to train
the model?
 Yes ✓ No

2.4.2 Was data collected from user interactions with the provider’s other services or products used
to train the model?
✓  Yes ☐  No
2.4.3 If yes, provide a general description of the provider’s services or products that were used to
collect the user data:
Conversation contexts (prompts and associated context only) from GitHub Copilot Free, Pro, and Pro+
users who have not opted out of having their data used for model training, starting from the date that
GitHub Copilot’s notice of updates to its interaction data usage policy became effective, were used as
inputs for reinforcement learning rollouts during post-training and were also used in training of an
internal reward model. Production log data was filtered to exclude identifying information,, images, tool-
use traces, safety-sensitive content, and non-conversational content before use. The model itself
generates rollout responses during training; production log responses are not used as training targets for
supervised fine-tuning.

2.4.4 Type of modality covered:
✓  Text ☐ Image ☐ Video ☐ Audio  ☐ Other (please specify)
2.4.5 Additional comments (optional):
N/A

2.5 Synthetic data
2.5.1 Was synthetic AI-generated data created by the provider or on their behalf to train the model?
✓ Yes ☐ No
2.5.2 If yes, modality of the synthetic data:
✓ Text ☐ Image  ☐ Video ☐ Audio ☐  Other (please specify)
2.5.3 If yes, specify the general-purpose AI model(s) used to generate the synthetic data if
available on the market:
Microsoft used a variety of publicly available general-purpose AI models (e.g., OpenAI: GPT-4o, GPT-5) to
support training data preparation, including data labeling, quality classification, metadata annotation,
embedding-based deduplication,  and generating natural language descriptions of publicly available
code.
2.5.4 Information about other AI models, including provider’s own AI model(s) not available on the
market, used to generate synthetic data to train the model to which this Summary applies:
Outside of the existing MAI-Thinking-1 base, internal Microsoft AI models and judge models not available
on the market were used to generate code-specific synthetic post-training datasets: Repo Commit
Sampling, Repo QA, File QA, SWE Bench (Train/Hard), SWE Instruction Following, UI Tasks, Cold Start,
FFT formatting data, and Mid-training RKLD synthetic data.

2.5.5 Provide a description of the need or desired purpose for using synthetic data for a model or
system’s intended purpose:
Synthetic data was used to scale verifiable training signal for software engineering tasks where high-
quality human-annotated data is scarce. It supports PR creation, repository and file understanding,
debugging, instruction-following, and reasoning. Cold-start synthetic data prepares the model for
reinforcement learning, and format fine-tuning (FFT) synthetic data standardizes output formatting.
Synthetic generation was selected over human annotation because of the volume and verifiability
required for code tasks.
2.6 Other sources of data
2.6.1 Was personal data used to train the model? Microsoft follows applicable laws and best
practices pertaining to personal data.

2.6.2 Have data sources other than those described in Sections 2.1 to 2.5 been used to train the
model?
☐ Yes ✓ No
2.6.3 If yes, provide a narrative description of these data sources and the data: N/A

3. Data processing aspects
3.1 Respect of reservation of rights from text and data mining exception or limitation
3.1.1 Are you a Signatory to the Code of Practice for general-purpose AI models that includes
commitments to respect reservations of rights from the TDM exception or limitation?  ✓ Yes ☐ No
3.1.2 Describe the measures implemented before model training to respect reservations of rights
from the TDM exception or limitation before and during data collection, including the opt-out
protocols and solutions honoured by the provider or, as applicable, by third parties from which
datasets have been obtained:
Microsoft’s Bing crawler bots respect the Robots Exclusion Protocol for text files placed in the header of
webpages as a method for reserving TDM rights.
In addition, Microsoft’s Bing crawler bots respect a number of meta-tag and HTML tag attributes, giving
webmasters greater control over how their content is used and displayed.  (See, Announcing new options
for webmasters to control usage of their...) Crawled data has been filtered by point-in-time robots.txt
when accessed for training to ensure compliance with reserved rights.
