Mistral: Mistral Medium 3.1

mistralai/mistral-medium-3.1

Mistral Medium 3.1 is an updated version of Mistral Medium 3, which is a high-performance enterprise-grade language model designed to deliver frontier-level capabilities at significantly reduced operational cost. It balances state-of-the-art reasoning and multimodal performance with 8× lower cost compared to traditional large models, making it suitable for scalable deployments across professional and industrial use cases.

The model excels in domains such as coding, STEM reasoning, and enterprise adaptation. It supports hybrid, on-prem, and in-VPC deployments and is optimized for integration into custom workflows. Mistral Medium 3.1 offers competitive accuracy relative to larger models like Claude Sonnet 3.5/3.7, Llama 4 Maverick, and Command R+, while maintaining broad compatibility across cloud environments.

Providers

Different companies host the same model. OpenRouter routes your request to one of them based on the routing mode you pick: Balanced (price + speed), Nitro (fastest), or Floor (cheapest).

Performance

Throughput is how fast the model writes (tokens per second — higher is better). Latency is total round-trip time (lower is better). TTFT is time-to-first-token — how long before you see anything appear (lower is better).

Uptime

Uptime is the percentage of the past 3 days that at least one provider was responding to requests. Availability is the percentage of time that inference was successfully served. OpenRouter continuously monitors and uses the next-best provider when one returns an error.

When an error occurs in an upstream provider, we can recover by routing to another healthy provider, if your request filters allow it. You can access per-provider uptime data programmatically through the Endpoints API. Learn more about our load balancing and provider routing options.

Available through EU in-region routing

Mistral: Mistral Medium 3.1 is available through EU in-region routing. Requests sent to eu.openrouter.ai are decrypted in the EU and routed only to shared provider endpoints in Europe (the EU/EEA, the UK, and Switzerland).

Plan
Requires Business or Enterprise. Self-serve on Business: no contract, no monthly minimum. OpenRouter Business for EU in-region routing

Fails closed: if no shared provider endpoint in Europe is available, the request errors instead of leaving the region. Requests served by your own BYOK key go to your deployment’s region, which you control. In-region routing docs
