## [Copy link to heading](#about-mistral-medium-31)About Mistral Medium 3.1

Mistral Medium 3.1 launched as the top MT-Bench tier on La Plateforme, alongside Mistral-tiny (efficiency) and Mistral-small (balance). At release Mistral Medium 3.1 scored 8.6 on MT-Bench. Mistral described it as a prototype endpoint undergoing deployed testing.

Mistral Medium 3.1's capability profile centers on five major European languages (English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish) alongside code generation. This multilingual design, combined with its position above tiny and small in the launch lineup, made it the default choice for many European-language workloads in Mistral's earliest days.

Mistral's portfolio has expanded since then, but Mistral Medium 3.1 remains available for teams with established integrations or workflows built around its specific capability profile.

## [Copy link to heading](#what-to-consider-when-choosing-a-provider)What To Consider When Choosing a Provider

- Configuration: Mistral Medium 3.1 covers English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, and code. This makes Mistral Medium 3.1 a fit for European teams needing a single model across languages.
- Zero Data Retention: Zero Data Retention is available for this model. It is offered on a per-provider and model basis. See the [documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/security-and-compliance/zdr) for details.
- Authentication: AI Gateway authenticates requests using an [API key](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/authentication-and-byok#api-key-authentication) or [OIDC token](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/authentication-and-byok#oidc-token-authentication). You do not need to manage provider credentials directly.

## [Copy link to heading](#when-to-use-mistral-medium-31)When to Use Mistral Medium 3.1

### Best for

- Multilingual European output: Coherent generation across English, French, Italian, German, and Spanish
- Existing production integrations: Teams with deployments built on Mistral Medium 3.1
- Code generation with multilingual docs: Tasks combining code and European-language comments
- Validated benchmark profile: Applications where historical benchmarks are a known quantity

### Consider alternatives when

- Higher capability general-purpose: You need a newer Mistral model (consider Mistral Large 3)
- Mathematical or structured reasoning: Tasks that require explicit reasoning traces (consider Magistral models)
- Vision input support: You need multimodal input (consider Pixtral models)
- Paramount cost efficiency: Cost dominates selection (consider Ministral or Mistral Small)

## [Copy link to heading](#conclusion)Conclusion

Mistral Medium 3.1 was Mistral's top MT-Bench launch endpoint. Mistral Medium 3.1 remains an option for European-language and code workloads tied to older integrations.
