Efficient Mistral model for fast chat, extraction, and production assistants
Mistral Small 3.2 is offered by 5 providers on this page. Its official list price is $0.10 per 1M input tokens and $0.30 per 1M output tokens. The lowest paid channel is Helicone at $0.075 / $0.20 per 1M, about 3.0× below the list price. That channel is a third-party gateway, so confirm its availability and rate limits before depending on it.
Artificial Analysis rates it 8.2 on the Intelligence Index, with 12.5 for coding and 1 for agentic tasks. Against its lowest blended price of $0.106 per 1M, that is roughly 77 index points per dollar, which is the value ratio the leaderboards rank on.
The context window is 128,000 tokens, with an output limit of 16,384 tokens. It supports tool use. Accepted input modalities are Text and Image. The weights are open, so it can also be self-hosted or served through a gateway of your choice. Providers report the capability flags inconsistently, so verify a specific feature against the host you plan to use. Its training knowledge cuts off at 2025-03.
Quality is independently evaluated by Artificial Analysis. Speed/latency are model-level medians.

Sorted by blended price (input×0.75 + output×0.25) asc. The official channel always shows regardless of rank. Whether a gateway's low price is actually usable can't be verified.
Individual evaluations run by Artificial Analysis, on the same reasoning tier as the intelligence score above. Each benchmark has its own task set and harness, so rows are not comparable with one another. The Intelligence Index above draws on a different, newer set of evaluations.
