  1. 1

    Does Mistral API publish a per-token price?

    Yes

    Yes, by Mistral AI's own page.

    Public docs list per-token prices, e.g. Mistral Large 4 at $0.70 input / $2.10 output per 1M tokens.

    Yes means: Per-token prices are on a public page with no sign-in. Partly means only some models are priced in public, or the price sits on a model page rather than the pricing page.

    Does Mistral API publish its rate limits?

    No

    No, by Mistral AI's own page.

    The docs name the kinds of limits that apply but give no numbers, saying the values are only shown in the signed-in admin panel.

    Yes means: The docs give request or token numbers for each tier or model. Partly means some numbers, such as a concurrency cap or the top tiers only; no means the numbers are only shown inside a signed-in account.

    Does Mistral API train on your API prompts by default?

    Partly

    Partly, by Mistral AI's own page.

    The privacy policy says inputs and outputs may be used for training unless the customer opts out in account settings.

    Yes means: Here no is the good answer: the provider's page says what you send its API is not used for training unless you opt in. Yes means it is unless you opt out; partly means it depends on the plan, the tier or the upstream provider.

  4. 4

    Does Mistral API say how long it keeps your prompts and outputs?

    Yes

    Yes, by Mistral AI's own page.

    For most APIs, inputs and outputs are kept for 30 rolling days for abuse monitoring unless zero data retention is approved.

    Yes means: A stated period, or a statement that nothing is kept by default. Partly means a period for some users or requests but not others.
