Mistral’s consumer assistant, known as Le Chat, is now presented on its pricing page (read 29 Sep 2026, USD) as Vibe, “your personal AI agent for everyday tasks”, with chat, search, image generation and coding in one plan ladder. Free is $0, Pro is $14.99 a month excluding tax, Team is $24.99 a user a month, and verified students get Pro for $5.99. The page no longer uses the name Le Chat. Mistral’s help centre says “Le Chat has become Vibe” and that existing accounts and plans carried over, and the press covered the rebrand when it was announced on 28 May 2026, so if you are searching for Le Chat you are looking at the same product under its new name.

API pricing
Most models are priced per million tokens. The FAQ gives Mistral Large as $0.5 in and $1.5 out per million tokens, with batch processing 50 percent cheaper and cached input up to 90 percent cheaper. OCR is priced per 1,000 pages, speech models per minute. The API credits bundled into each plan are a way to test that pricing.
Self-hosting and licences
The FAQ says you can self-host Mistral models anywhere, but distinguishes licences: open-weight models such as Mistral 7B are Apache 2.0 licensed for research and individual use, while commercial deployments need a Mistral licence with separate terms. Read the licence for the specific model before shipping a product on it.
Who it suits, who should skip
- Suits people who want a low-cost assistant plus coding agent and some API credits in one plan: Pro is $14.99.
- Free is a fair trial: the page lists limited messages, searches and coding sessions rather than a fixed count.
- Skip if you need published message caps or a compliance statement: the pricing page does not give either, and we found no source for the earlier GDPR claim.
- Compare ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and, for API cost, DeepSeek.
