Mistral AI releases OCR 3, a document processing model that achieves 74% win rate over its predecessor across forms, scanned documents, tables, and handwriting. The model extracts text and images from documents with markdown output and HTML table reconstruction, priced at $2 per 1,000 pages ($1 with batch API). It excels at handwriting recognition, form processing, low-quality scans, and complex table structures. Available via API (mistral-ocr-2512) and through Document AI Playground in Mistral AI Studio for parsing PDFs/images into text or structured JSON.
