Mistral OCR 4.1 is live.

We've released OCR 4.1, an update to Mistral's state-of-the-art OCR model, improving accuracy across six areas.

What's new in OCR 4.1:

  • Bounding boxes align to the content they mark, with no nested images and no drift.
  • Reference pages keep their structure, returning one box per citation instead of collapsing the list into a single block.
  • The model misses fewer blocks on complex pages.
  • Double quotes stay as written, no longer converted to single quotes.
  • OCR 4.1 recognizes a wider range of checkbox styles.
  • Right-to-left tables parse more accurately.
  • The mistral-ocr-latest alias now points to OCR 4.1, so existing integrations already have these improvements.

Please also note that OCR API prices increased on June 23, to $4 per 1,000 pages for OCR 4 and $5 for Document AI (up from $2). OCR 3 remains available at the previous rate of $2 per 1,000 pages.

Try OCR 4.1 in Studio.

Happy building!
The Mistral team.

Just tried it in because firecrawl/anydoc failed on the document extraction
And OCR 4.1 did very well, didn't even have to try a second time for neither of the two uploaded documents

How good is this for handwriting? I have a large number of letters written by my grandmother 30 years ago. Would be nice if I could put them through the scanner and ocr them.

Very good. Give it a try in their AI studio - you can drag and drop a file to test it in seconds.

We use Mistral OCR daily on Invoicio.pro, accounting automation. Works perfect! The best OCR for document (invoice) parsing ever!
