Mistral Medium 3.5Mistral AIThis page, always on the chart

Among the 40 current releases on this chart, Mistral Medium 3.5's best rank is 12th of 25 on Answers in full. Agentic coding is Artificial Analysis's run on Terminal-Bench 4.0, Science is Artificial Analysis's run on GPQA Diamond and Instruction following is Artificial Analysis's run on IFBench, marked on the chart. It ranks lowest on Multimodal, 24th of 24 and Hard reasoning, 38th of 38. Math and Computer use: not yet published by Mistral AI or any independent evaluator, checked Nov 2, 2026.

Each axis is one public benchmark at one setting, on its own fixed 0 to 100 scale, so adding a model never moves another. A dotted bridge crosses a missing result, which is never a zero. A hollow mark is a result from another source: the maker's own figure or another lab's run, where the benchmark's usual source has not tested the model yet. The readout names it.

Price and speed

  • Mistral Medium 3.5 lists at $1.50 per million input tokens and $7.50 per million output tokens. Mistral AI pricing, Oct 28, 2026.
  • Mistral Medium 3.5 writes 165.9 output tokens per second on Mistral's API, and its first token arrives 2.3 s after the request. Artificial Analysis, Oct 28, 2026.
  • Fastest on the chart is the shortest time to a 500-token answer: time to first token plus 500 tokens at the median output speed.

Every model with a result, axis by axis

57 models. A maker's own figure and another lab's run are marked with their benchmark; a missing result reads "Not yet published", never zero.

The result of every model GILD has benchmark results for, on each of the 12 axes. A vendor-reported value is marked. A model's run notes open under its row from its name, each with the axes it covers.
