Mistral Large 4 is Mistral’s largest model to date, trained from scratch on 3,800 Grace Blackwell GPUs in its own European data centers. This multimodal mixture-of-experts checkpoint accepts text and images. It has been available as a public API preview since October 6, 2026, with weights announced for the end of October.

Mistral particularly highlights the combination of visual grounding and agentic work. Its demos show Large 4 examining engineering drawings and large satellite images by zooming into regions and checking what it finds. For coding, Mistral reports 61.7% on DeepSWE v1.1. In a blind coding-quality evaluation conducted with Surge AI, the preview scored 3.74 out of 5, behind Claude Opus 5 and ahead of Kimi K3 and GLM 5.3. These results concern the preview; Mistral is continuing to train the model.
