For most tasks and coding: Mistral Medium. For document AI: OCR. For audio and speech intelligence: Voxtral. For cost-sensitive projects: Mistral Small. See the Models overview for more information.

Most models are priced per million tokens, with both input (your prompts) and output (responses) counted separately. For example, Mistral Large costs $0.5 /M tokens in and $1.5 /M tokens out. Batch processing, for high-volume work, reduces the price by 50%, and cached input tokens reduce input cost by up to 90% for repeated prompts. A few APIs are priced differently: OCR is per 1,000 pages, speech models are per minute, and tool APIs are priced per call.

The Mistral Studio dashboard offers detailed tracking of API usage, including metrics for calls, endpoints, and user activity. It breaks down costs for services like completion, OCR, and fine-tuning, helping you monitor and optimize API consumption efficiently.

You get more messages and web searches, more extended thinking and deep research reports, expanded Mistral Vibe capacity, and chat and email support.

Pro has higher ceilings compared to Free (e.g. up to 40x more image generations). Team and Enterprise plans have even higher allowances on certain features. For example, Flash answers: 200 / day on Team vs. 150 / day on Pro.
