Mistral Small 4 is the next major release in the Mistral Small family, unifying the capabilities of several flagship Mistral models into a single system. It combines strong reasoning from Magistral, multimodal understanding from Pixtral, and agentic coding capabilities from Devstral, enabling one model to handle complex analysis, software development, and visual tasks within the same workflow.
Mistral Small Creative is an experimental small model designed for creative writing, narrative generation, roleplay and character-driven dialogue, general-purpose instruction following, and conversational agents.
Devstral 2 is a state-of-the-art open-source model by Mistral AI specializing in agentic coding. It is a 123B-parameter dense transformer model supporting a 256K context window. Devstral 2 supports exploring codebases and orchestrating changes across multiple files while maintaining architecture-level context. It tracks framework dependencies, detects failures, and retries with corrections—solving challenges like bug fixing and modernizing legacy systems. The model can be fine-tuned to prioritize specific languages or optimize for large enterprise codebases. It is available under a modified MIT license.
The largest model in the Ministral 3 family, Ministral 3 14B offers frontier capabilities and performance comparable to its larger Mistral Small 3.2 24B counterpart. A powerful and efficient language model with vision capabilities.
The smallest model in the Ministral 3 family, Ministral 3 3B is a powerful, efficient tiny language model with vision capabilities.
Mistral Large 3 2512 is Mistral’s most capable model to date, featuring a sparse mixture-of-experts architecture with 41B active parameters (675B total), and released under the Apache 2.0 license.
