Is Mistral down? Live La Plateforme & API status

Paris-based frontier LLM lab · La Plateforme API

Live Mistral API status — La Plateforme, chat completions, embeddings and Codestral endpoints checked from your browser against api.mistral.ai.

Quick answer: Mistral Health monitors real-time uptime and API latency for Mistral AI services, including La Plateforme, chat completions, embeddings, and Codestral endpoints via direct browser and server ping diagnostics. Mistral API status tracks uptime and latency across chat completions, embeddings, and Codestral endpoints at api.mistral.ai, so developers can verify live platform availability and detect service disruptions in real time.

Mistral's API does not return permissive CORS headers, so these checks confirm DNS, TCP and TLS reachability only — not the JSON body. For per-region incident detail, see the official status page below.

About Mistral

Mistral AI is a Paris-based frontier lab shipping open-weight and commercial LLMs (Mistral Large, Small, Codestral, Ministral) through La Plateforme at api.mistral.ai. We hit /v1/models and the chat/embeddings edges from your browser to confirm the API is reachable.

Common Mistral issues

  • 429 rate-limit spikes

    La Plateforme enforces per-model TPS and TPM caps. Bursty traffic on Large hits limits before Small does — check the Retry-After header and back off exponentially.

  • Regional latency to EU-only endpoints

    Mistral serves inference from EU regions by default. Callers in APAC or the Americas can see 200–400ms baseline latency on top of decode time.

  • Function-calling schema errors

    Tool JSON schemas must be strict Draft-07 with additionalProperties: false. A loose schema returns a 400 the docs describe as invalid_tool_schema.

Background

Mistral AI was founded in April 2023 by former Meta and DeepMind researchers and released the first open-weight Mistral 7B that autumn. La Plateforme launched in December 2023; the commercial Mistral Large and code-specialist Codestral rounded out the API through 2024–2025.

Frequently asked

Is the Mistral API down right now?
The dashboard above polls api.mistral.ai from your browser every 15 seconds. Green means the edge is reachable; check status.mistral.ai for per-region incident detail.
Which models are on La Plateforme?
Mistral Large, Mistral Small, Codestral, Ministral, and the embed model — plus fine-tunes you create. Availability varies by region and tier.
Where can I see rate limits?
Rate limits are per API key and per model tier; the current caps live in your console.mistral.ai dashboard under Usage.
How can I check if Mistral AI is down?
Test API response status directly from mistral.health or send a lightweight GET request to https://api.mistral.ai/v1/models using your API key to verify endpoint responsiveness.
What do common Mistral API HTTP error codes mean?
A 401 error indicates an invalid API key, 429 signifies rate limiting or insufficient credit, and 500 or 503 errors represent internal server or provider-side capacity outages.
Where are Mistral AI status incidents officially published?
Mistral AI posts official incident reports and platform maintenance notices on status.mistral.ai, while mistral.health provides live client-side latency and endpoint availability tests.
What is the base URL for the Mistral API?
The official base URL for Mistral API requests is https://api.mistral.ai/v1. It powers all chat, embedding, and code completions endpoints.
How do I check if La Plateforme is operational?
Test client-side connectivity directly on mistral.health or verify HTTP response codes from api.mistral.ai to diagnose outages or rate limits.
