Mistral AI

What it does

Mistral offers frontier-adjacent models with EU hosting and open-weight releases. La Plateforme serves the catalogue; Codestral and Pixtral cover code and vision.

The free experiment tier makes trying easy; pay-as-you-go and enterprise contracts scale. Data residency matters to EU-facing teams.
