Magistral – A series of inference models launched by Mistral AI

What is Magistral?

Magistral is a reasoning model launched by Mistral AI, focusing on transparency, multilingual capability, and domain-specific reasoning. The model includes Magistral Small (open-source version) and Magistral Medium (enterprise version). Magistral Medium performed excellently in the AIME 2024 test, scoring 73.6% overall and achieving 90% on majority vote. Magistral supports multiple languages including English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Arabic, Russian, and Simplified Chinese. It provides traceable reasoning steps, making it suitable for applications in law, finance, healthcare, software development, and other fields. With the support of Le Chat’s Flash Answers feature, Magistral Medium’s reasoning speed is 10 times faster than most competitors, enabling large-scale real-time reasoning and user feedback.
