Mistral Large 4
by Mistral AI · FranceMistral's trillion-parameter flagship, in public preview from 6 October 2026, with the weights released afterwards. The licence is MIT with one condition: a company selling it as a hosted model needs a commercial licence from Mistral.

A category averages every benchmark in it that Mistral Large 4 reports. The rank counts only models that report the same tests, so it never compares an average over three benchmarks against an average over one.

Where these numbers come from
Every score on this page is a published figure, taken from the model's own card, system card, technical report or release post, or from a public leaderboard. CorX Labs did not run these evaluations. Most are self-reported by the lab that built the model, which means they were produced under that lab's own choice of prompt, scaffold and number of attempts — so treat them as a starting point for a shortlist, not as a settled ranking.
A score someone other than the model's maker measured is marked Independent and names its measurer. Those are the stronger numbers on this page — an outside harness has no reason to flatter anyone — and there are not many of them.
Where a figure has not been published, the cell reads Not reported rather than an estimate. Nothing here is inferred, interpolated or guessed. Each model records the month its row was last checked. Full method and caveats.
