Mistral Large 3

The value pick of the whole lineup: frontier-size open-weight MoE at $0.50/$1.50, cheaper than Medium 3.5 and most rivals' mid-tier models — default choice for general multimodal chat, RAG and bulk generation unless you specifically need Medium 3.5's agentic coding. Alias: mistral-large-latest.
