Mistral raised prices on the developer API (la Plateforme) even as its Vibe consumer subscriptions held steady. The cost-sensitive Mistral Small 4 model moved from $0.1 in / $0.3 out to $0.15 in / $0.6 out per million tokens — a 50% input and 100% output increase — narrowing the gap with premier models. The document-extraction model was upgraded to OCR 4 and roughly doubled to $4 per 1,000 pages ($5 with Document AI, up from OCR 3 at $2/$3). Transcription also shifted: Voxtral Mini Transcribe 2 is $0.003/min with a new $0.006/min realtime variant.

The Vibe assistant ladder is unchanged — Free $0, Pro $14.99/mo, Team $24.99/user/mo, Enterprise custom, and the $5.99/mo student plan. Flagship model rates (Mistral Medium 3.5 at $1.5/$7.5, Mistral Large 3 at $0.5/$1.5) and the agent-tool fees ($30/1K for web search and code execution, $100/1K images) also held.

Alongside the price move, Mistral restructured its pricing site: API pricing and Enterprise deployments graduated from in-page tabs to their own URLs (/pricing/api/, /pricing/enterprise-deployments).
