Mistral is cooking 🍳!
Could this also convert web page UI screenshots into AI-ready formats for agents?
For instance, could it handle dynamic layouts or interactive components such as buttons and menus to produce structured outputs that help identify which element to click?
@pederzh why not? And if this api doesn’t have hooks or functionality maybe use this - olmOCR model from Qwen2-VL-7B-Instruct (preview).

Lightning-fast, ultra-accurate OCR?
Mistral OCR looks like it's hitting a spot for anyone dealing with scanned docs, images, or text extraction at scale...!!
If this truly delivers state of the art performance in a lightweight package, it’s a recommendation I'm going to be passing this on to everyone!!
Best of luck to the team :)
Top tier OCR product by Mistral AI whose output this year has been stellar. They released Le Chat, Codestral 25.01 and Mistral Small 3 prior to this.

Good job, Mistral team - congrats! That’s a really useful product!
I saw the performance of Mistral OCR, Gemini, Google Doc AI, and Azure OCR on your landing page. But how do their prices compare? Which one is more cost-effective for small and medium businesses?
