Model Detail

Mistral: Codestral 2508 is a large language model released by Mistral AI. And supports text+file->text inputs.

Mistral: Codestral 2508 is priced at $0.3/M input tokens and $0.9/M output tokens. Operationally the model offers a 256K-token context window, which matters when sizing it for prompt-heavy or latency-sensitive workloads. At this input rate the model sits in the commodity tier and is suitable for high-volume workloads where per-call cost dominates the decision.

The published knowledge cutoff is 2025-03-31, so newer events will not be reflected in zero-shot answers without retrieval.

Mistral: Codestral 2508 is best fit for general-purpose chat and instruction-following workloads, high-volume batch jobs where per-call cost dominates the budget, and long-context tasks such as full-codebase analysis or book-length summarization (256K tokens). Treat this as a starting matrix rather than a benchmark verdict — the right deployment usually depends on the specific evaluation suite that mirrors your workload.
