Au Large

We are releasing Mistral Large, our latest and most advanced language model. Mistral Large is available through la Plateforme. We are also making it available through Azure, our first distribution partner.

Mistral Large, our new flagship model

Mistral Large is our new cutting-edge text generation model. It reaches top-tier reasoning capabilities. It can be used for complex multilingual reasoning tasks, including text understanding, transformation, and code generation.

Mistral Large achieves strong results on commonly used benchmarks, making it the world's second-ranked model generally available through an API (next to GPT-4) [see below for details on benchmarks].

Mistral Large comes with new capabilities and strengths:

• It is natively fluent in English, French, Spanish, German, and Italian, with a nuanced understanding of grammar and cultural context.

• Its 32K tokens context window allows precise information recall from large documents.

• Its precise instruction-following enables developers to design their moderation policies -- we used it to set up the system-level moderation of le Chat.

• It is natively capable of function calling. This, along with constrained output mode, implemented on la Plateforme, enables application development and tech stack modernisation at scale.

Partnering with Microsoft to provide our models on Azure

At Mistral, our mission is to make frontier AI ubiquitous. This is why we're announcing today that we're bringing our open and commercial models to Azure. Microsoft's trust in our model is a step forward in our journey! Our models are now available through:
