Strengths

  • 1M-token context, up from 256k on Mistral Large 3
  • Multimodal, with a built-in vision encoder
  • EU-jurisdiction provider — relevant for data-residency rules
  • $1.36 input / $4.18 output per MTok on Mistral's model card, with cached input at $0.14

Weaknesses

  • Public Preview — not yet generally available
  • Mistral says open weights are 'coming soon'; until they ship it is API-only, so the licence is listed as Proprietary for now
  • Even at 52B active, a 1.05T-parameter model needs enterprise hardware once weights arrive
