Mistral OCR: New Document Understanding API with State-of-the-Art Benchmark Performance

Mistral AI has released Mistral OCR, an Optical Character Recognition API designed for deep document understanding, handling text, tables, equations, images, and complex layouts from PDFs and images. The model claims top benchmark scores across math, multilingual, scanned, and table categories, outperforming Google Document AI, Azure OCR, Gemini 1.5/2.0, and GPT-4o on an internal test set. It is priced at 1000 pages per dollar (with batch inference doubling that), available via la Plateforme API today, and is already deployed as the default document understanding model in Le Chat. A selective self-hosting option is offered for organizations with sensitive data requirements.
