Mistral Large 2
Previous Mistral flagship — superseded by Mistral Large 3
Verdict
Was the best EU-hosted option with data-residency guarantees; Mistral Large 3 replaces it directly and adds a full open-weight Apache 2.0 release on top, so the "EU option" argument no longer requires giving up self-hosting. Migrate new work to Large 3.
