Mistral occupies a distinct position: a frontier-adjacent European lab that publishes weights under Apache 2.0 for much of its range. Medium 3.5 leads at $1.50 input and $7.50 output with a 256K window; Large 3, Small 4 and the Ministral family fill the tiers below, down to $0.10 per 1M.
The line-up also covers specialised work that the big labs price separately — OCR billed per thousand pages, Voxtral for speech, Codestral for code, moderation at no charge. For teams with data-residency constraints, the combination of EU hosting and downloadable weights is the practical argument.

How to choose
- Decide early whether you need open weights — most of the range ships under Apache 2.0.
- Use the specialised models rather than forcing the flagship: OCR per page, Voxtral for speech, Codestral for code.
- Check EU hosting terms if data residency is contractual rather than preferential.
- Compare Medium 3.5 against Sonnet 5 and Terra directly; the gap is narrower than the price suggests.
