About this tool
Le Chat is Mistral AI's conversational assistant and the consumer-facing showcase for the French lab's models. It runs on Mistral's open and proprietary models including Mistral Large for general reasoning, Codestral for code and Pixtral for vision, and uses Black Forest Labs' Flux models for image generation. Inside the app users can run web search, do deep research, analyze documents and scanned PDFs with OCR, generate and edit images, run code, and build no-code agents with custom data connectors and workflow automation. Le Chat targets enterprise teams across sales, marketing, finance, HR, compliance and engineering, with deployment options ranging from Mistral-hosted cloud to fully self-hosted on a customer's own infrastructure for data residency. Recent updates have added a faster Flash Answers mode, mobile apps and a wider library of pre-built agents.
