PRICING CLARITY

A1MET

List prices per 1M tokens (input/output) published on an official page without login.

https://mistral.ai/pricing/api/

Captured 2026-08-28

A2MET

Price unit is unambiguous (per 1M tokens; input vs output separated).

https://mistral.ai/pricing/api/

Captured 2026-08-28

A3NOT MET

Page states an effective/updated date (attributable to a snapshot).

https://mistral.ai/pricing/api/

We extracted the complete rendered text of the pricing page and found no date of any kind, and we found no dated archive of past pricing.

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

A4MET

Cached/batch/discount tiers (where offered) published officially.

https://mistral.ai/pricing/api/

Captured 2026-08-28

A5NOT MET

Promotional pricing labeled as promotional (with end date if time-limited).

https://mistral.ai/pricing/api/

One offer is labelled as available for a limited period, but we found no end date published for it. The criterion requires the end date where the offer is time-limited.

BILLING PREDICTABILITY

B1MET

How usage is metered is documented (tokenizer, counting rules, rounding).

https://docs.mistral.ai/guides/tokenization/

Captured 2026-08-28

B2MET

Cached/prefix behavior is documented (automatic vs opt-in).

https://docs.mistral.ai/studio-api/conversations/advanced/prompt-caching

Captured 2026-08-28

B3NOT VERIFIABLE

A tool/formula to estimate request cost before sending is published.

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

B4MET

Known billing surprises (TTLs, write premiums, minimums) disclosed in docs.

https://mistral.ai/pricing/api/

Captured 2026-08-28

B5NOT VERIFIABLE

Historical prices are discoverable or retrievable on request.

SPEND OBSERVABILITY

C1MET

Usage available per model in console/API (not only aggregated).

https://docs.mistral.ai/admin/billing-usage/usage-limits

Captured 2026-08-28

C2MET

Token counts (input/output) reported alongside spend.

https://docs.mistral.ai/admin/billing-usage/usage-limits

Captured 2026-08-28

C3NOT VERIFIABLE

Per-request or per-API-key breakdown available.

https://docs.mistral.ai/admin/billing-usage/usage-limits

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

C4NOT VERIFIABLE

Usage/cost export exists (CSV/API) without premium tier.

https://docs.mistral.ai/admin/security-access/admin-api

A usage export exists, but your documentation states the Admin API is available on Enterprise plans. The criterion requires an export available without a premium tier, so we could not score it MET; we found no documented CSV path outside that tier.

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

C5NOT VERIFIABLE

Near-real-time spend tracking (sub-hour refresh) exists.

BILLING / INVOICE QUALITY

D1NOT VERIFIABLE

Invoices line-item by service/model.

https://docs.mistral.ai/admin/billing-usage/invoices

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

D2NOT VERIFIABLE

Invoice shows unit quantities and rates, not only totals.

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

D3NOT VERIFIABLE

Usage CSV/API and invoice are reconcilable without manual mapping.

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

D4NOT VERIFIABLE

Invoice/notification includes readable date range and currency.

https://docs.mistral.ai/admin/user-management-finops/billing

Captured 2026-08-28 · re-verified against the live page 2026-09-13

D5NOT MET

Billing docs/invoices available via API for automation.

https://docs.mistral.ai/admin/security-access/admin-api

The only documented invoice retrieval path we found is a console click to download a PDF, and the Admin API's own enumerated scope does not include invoices. Cost data is available through the usage endpoint, but that is not an invoice document.

Data-use-for-training policy is clearly published.

E3NOT VERIFIABLE

Pricing/support changes are communicated before taking effect.

https://legal.mistral.ai/terms/commercial-terms-of-service

Your terms commit to thirty days' notice for updates to the Terms themselves. We could not find a clause committing to advance notice of a price change, since pricing lives on a page outside the Terms. If such a commitment exists, we will re-score.
