Features
Mistral AI is a company from Paris that publishes downloadable models alongside its online services. Per the model card, the Ministral 3 family is meant to run on a wide range of hardware; you use the models with a local program.
The licence differs per model. Per the Mistral Large 4 licence text, companies that offer a model as a service to third parties need a separate licence from Mistral for commercial use; internal use is exempt. Not legal advice: the vendor's licence text is what counts.
