Mistral AI · 10 June 2025

Magistral is Mistral's first reasoning model. Medium scores 73.6% on AIME 2024 (90% with majority voting), and Small is open under Apache 2.0.

Built with Mistral's own scalable RL pipeline, no distilled traces from rival models. Paper shows RL on text alone keeps or improves multimodal and instruction-following ability. Reasoning in many languages (English, French, Spanish, German, Arabic, more).
