What you save

A page is about 600 tokens in and 60 out, a support reply 200 in and 300 out, an email 150 in and 250 out. Nothing else is counted: no cache discount, no batch rate, no free tier.

How we count

Prices are per million tokens. The big number on each row is blended 3 in : 1 out, the way most work uses a model. A price below Mistral AI's own is listed as cheapest only when the provider says why.

Runs it themselves
The provider runs the open weights on hardware of its own, so the price is its own rather than a resale.
Same as maker
Sold by someone else at the price the maker charges.
Maker's price
What the lab that trained the model charges on its own API. Every other row is measured against it.
Costs more
Sold by someone else for more than the maker charges.
Not ranked
Below the maker's price on a closed model with nothing to account for it, or from a catalog we could not read reliably. Listed, and never a pick.
