Frontier AI. In Your Hands. This was the founding north star of Mistral AI and continues to guide our mission two years on. It has helped us evolve from a research lab to the world’s leading independent AI company, rooted in open science.
Through this journey, however, we have realized that to truly democratize AI, it will require us to not just build open models and frontier AI products, but to provide everyone across the world the tools and environments to do so themselves, from infrastructure up.
In particular, we believe that the buildout and ownership of AI infrastructure should not be restricted to two or three powerful companies, but rather, be independent and self-determined.
Frontier AI should be in your hands. And in service of that mission, we are proud to announce the latest addition to our Mistral AI’s portfolio of offerings—Mistral Compute.
Frontier AI infrastructure for everyone.
Mistral Compute is a new AI infrastructure offering that will provide customers a private, integrated stack—GPUs, orchestration, APIs, products, and services in whatever form factor they need, from bare-metal servers to fully-managed PaaS. It is an unprecedented AI infrastructure undertaking in Europe, and a strategic initiative that will ensure that all nation states, enterprises, and research labs globally remain at the forefront of AI innovation.
The genesis of Mistral Compute was organic. At Mistral AI, we faced our fair share of challenges training models and building state-of-the-art AI products. GPU hardware is expensive and scarce, tooling is patchy, and securing critical workloads is difficult. We learned hard lessons along the way, but eventually managed to build a robust AI platform on which we trained many state of the art models that today serve millions of users. And now, we’re unleashing its power for anyone to build on.
Mistral Compute empowers sovereigns, companies, and research institutions to completely reimagine the way they build their AI stack. What used to be a choice between a few third party cloud providers is now the right to build your AI environment to your spec, and own it top to bottom. The offering will include Mistral AI’s training suite that can accelerate region and domain-specific AI efforts across nation and industry -wide endeavors such as defense technology, pharmaceutical discovery, financial markets, and more.
