Mistral AI's new free tier allows developers to fine tune and build applications with AI models, reflecting a broader trend of providing more for less in AI.
The Paris-based startup's free tier, available via La Plateforme, facilitates easy experimentation with AI models, although production use may require paid tiers with higher rate limits.
By significantly reducing prices for API access to its models, Mistral aims to compete with large providers like OpenAI and Google amidst commoditization in the AI space.
The introduction of Pixtral 12B, a multimodal model that can process both images and text, further enhances Mistral's offerings, integrating new capabilities into its consumer product, Le Chat.
