Magistral Medium
Mistral AI
DISCONTINUED. Mistral's first reasoning model (June 2025), the API-served Medium tier tuned for transparent, multi-step reasoning across math, coding, and logic. Magistral shows ~15% gains on AIME 24/25 and LiveCodeBench over prior Mistral models, with a reasoning-oriented context window. Mistral deprecated it on October 31, 2025 and retired it on November 30, 2025; every Magistral version now sits in Mistral's deprecated table.
