Category score record

Scores and ranks appear only where published evidence can be displayed. The table keeps the score, weight, cohort, and evidence state together.

Coverage details

How much of this is verified

Coverage is split by category so a strong number never hides a thin evidence base. Verified means the row is tied to a published source; provisional rows remain visible but separate.

Lineage

The sequence follows explicit supersedes links. Each score is estimated for that model; a relative can inform a sparse estimate but never sets a floor, so a newer release can score below an earlier one. Scores and prices remain blank when the corresponding public row or first-party rate is unavailable.

How to read this profile

The visual layer above carries the decisions. These notes preserve the model, ranking, coverage, and family context behind the numbers.

We track Mistral Small 4, but no weighted text-model benchmark result is published on the site yet. This page shows the metadata and separate protocol evidence we can verify now; a BenchLM score will appear only if compatible public evaluations land.

Mistral Small 4 is a open weight model with a 256K context window. No explicit reasoning mode is documented in this profile.

Current sparse row should only be expanded from official exact-value benchmark tables for the Mistral Small 4 base line.

Mistral Small 4 sits in the Mistral Small 4 family with Mistral Small 4 (Reasoning). The profile has no source-displayable benchmark row yet.

Its strongest eligible category is Instruction Following at #92, while its lowest eligible position is Knowledge at #128. a well-rounded choice across a range of tasks.

Last updated October 29, 2026. Runtime fields remain blank until a sourced snapshot exists.

Deployment options

Self-host and provider-specific paths stay separate from benchmark evidence so operating constraints are visible before a score becomes the whole decision.

Questions

How does Mistral Small 4 perform overall in AI benchmarks?

Mistral Small 4 does not have any source-displayable benchmark rows yet, so this profile does not assign a public score or rank. Documented specifications remain visible, while score-led charts and claims stay unavailable until a published evaluation can be attached to the exact model.

Is Mistral Small 4 open source?

Mistral Small 4 is an open-weight model from Mistral. Its weights can be downloaded for local or hosted deployment, subject to the published license. Open weight does not automatically mean open source: training data and training code may remain private, and commercial restrictions can still apply.

Which sibling models are related to Mistral Small 4?

Mistral Small 4 belongs to the Mistral Small 4 family. Related tracked variants include Mistral Small 4 (Reasoning). A sibling link indicates shared lineage or a documented configuration relationship; it does not mean the variants have identical pricing, context limits, benchmark evidence, or deployment behavior. Compare before switching.

Does Mistral Small 4 have full benchmark coverage on BenchLM?

No. Mistral Small 4 currently has 15 source-displayable rows. The profile exposes published, non-generated evidence and leaves missing categories blank until an exact evaluation is available. Coverage describes how much was measured; it is not a penalty added to an individual benchmark result.

What is the context window size of Mistral Small 4?

Mistral Small 4 has a reported context window of 256K in the exact-model catalog record. The value stays visible, but the profile marks its source link as unavailable instead of presenting it as directly documented. Maximum output length remains separate because providers often publish a different limit.
