only one source so far

On 30 September 2026, the company Mistral ended support for the OCR 4.0 model and recommends switching to OCR 4.1 (mistral-ocr-4-1 or mistral-ocr-latest) at the same price.

On 30 September 2026, the company Mistral ended support for the OCR 4.0 model (identifier mistral-ocr-4-0) and marked it as deprecated. It recommends that users switch to the OCR 4.1 model, available under the identifiers mistral-ocr-4-1 or mistral-ocr-latest.

According to the company Mistral, the price for the new OCR 4.1 model remains the same as for OCR 4.0. The company published the information in the official Mistral Platform Changelog on 29 September 2026, one day before the support end itself.

What changed

Why it matters

Applications and pipelines that call the specific mistral-ocr-4-0 identifier will stop working after the support end date unless developers change the model to OCR 4.1. Since, according to the company Mistral, the price remains the same, this is purely a technical migration with no impact on the budget, but without it there is a risk of a document processing outage.

Two audiences, two different impacts

What this means

01

For individuals

Developers who call the OCR 4.0 model in their code must switch to OCR 4.1, otherwise their API calls will stop working from 30 September 2026.

What to do In projects using Mistral OCR, check for the occurrence of the mistral-ocr-4-0 identifier and switch to mistral-ocr-4-1 or the mistral-ocr-latest alias.

02

For a business

Companies that have Mistral OCR integrated into document processing must update production integrations, otherwise calls to the old model will stop working; according to Mistral, the price remains the same, so the migration has no impact on costs.

Development
What to decide Check corporate integrations of the Mistral OCR API and replace the mistral-ocr-4-0 identifier with the mistral-ocr-4-1 version or mistral-ocr-latest before the old version is shut down.
