Mistral's frontier-class multimodal model for agentic and coding work, released as open weights under a modified MIT licence. The main European option for teams with data-residency requirements.

Model ID: mistral-medium-3-5

What that means

A worked example

Per-token pricing is hard to feel. Take a moderately chatty production workload: 100 calls a day, roughly 10,000 tokens in and 2,000 out each time. On Mistral Medium 3.5 that comes to about:

$90 / month

Before caching, batching or volume discounts, all of which move this number a long way. Illustrative only.
