Mistral Tiny

Mistral Tiny is a previous cheap Mistral snapshot powered by leftover Mistral-7B-v0.2 copy, not the live catalog lead.

Compare Mistral 7B Instruct if you wanted the leftover 7B twin already rewritten as previous, Mistral Small if you wanted leftover Small v24.09, and Mistral Nemo if you wanted the leftover 12B NVIDIA snapshot.

Key Features

• Previous Tiny snapshot: older copy said it is currently powered by Mistral-7B-v0.2. Confirm the live models page before you hard-code Tiny.
• Not the 2026 Mistral lead: Live catalog leads with Medium 3.5 / Small 4 / Large 3.
• Website is models, not a company slug: There is no /items/ai-ecosystem/mistral page.

Use Cases

• People with a Mistral Tiny bookmark who need the catalog corrected.
• People who were about to keep 7B-v0.2 as the current cheap Mistral default.

Limitation: We did not call a Tiny API. Absence from the live pricing nav is not a shutdown certificate.

If a leftover blog still calls Tiny the current cheap Mistral default, treat the live models page as the correction.

Getting Started

1. Open mistral.ai/models before you hard-code Tiny.
2. Confirm Small 4 / Medium 3.5 / Large 3 if you wanted the live path.
3. Confirm Mistral 7B Instruct if you wanted the leftover 7B twin.
4. Do not paste "currently powered by 7B-v0.2" into a 2026 deck.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Tiny still the cheap Mistral default?

Not on the live catalog on the public page. Medium 3.5 / Small 4 lead.

Same as 7B Instruct?

No. Both are leftover snapshots. Tiny's older copy pointed at 7B-v0.2 fine-tuning.

Same as Small 4?

No. Small 4 is a current live catalog row.

Alternatives

• Mistral Small: Leftover Small v24.09 already rewritten as previous.

• GPT-5.6 Sol: Live OpenAI frontier if you wandered here for a current model.

Tips

1. Call Tiny a previous snapshot, not the current cheap Mistral default.
2. Point new Mistral work at Medium 3.5 / Small 4 / Large 3.
3. Confirm live docs before you invent a Tiny dollar row.

Conclusion

Mistral Tiny is a previous cheap snapshot, not the 2026 Mistral default. Start at mistral.ai/models, then decide whether Small 4 or Medium 3.5 already covers the path you need.
