Write and analyze with Mistral Large 4
Mistral Large 4 is Mistral AI's new large model, released on October 6, 2026 as a public preview: open weights, 1.05 trillion parameters with 49 billion active per token, a 512,000-token context, twice that of Mistral Large 3, and image reading. It keeps the family's strength, natural French, idioms and tone included, and can work from an image: describe a photo, read a scanned document, draw a brief from a reference board. Its price sits at the low end of the catalogue's mid-range.
Mistral's new large model
Mistral Large 4, released on October 6, 2026 as a public preview, is Mistral AI's new flagship: open weights, 1.05 trillion parameters in a mixture-of-experts architecture with 49 billion active per token, and a 512,000-token context. It succeeds Mistral Large 3 with a bigger model and a context twice as long, and reads images just as it did.
Its price, sixty-eight cents per million input tokens and two dollars nine per million output tokens, puts it at the low end of the mid-range, far below the large American models. On the canvas, you wire it into a Text node like any other model, and it answers an image as readily as a written instruction.
When to choose it
For anything written in French first: an ad hook, a video script, a product page, an email. It keeps the tone, idioms and cultural references where English-first models translate. With vision, it describes a product photo, reads a scanned document or draws a brief from a reference board, then writes the prompts for the next nodes.
For meticulous proofreading or very long reasoning, Claude and GPT-6 Astra keep the edge. Mistral Large 3 stays in the catalogue, but Large 4 is now the Mistral to pick first.
