Mistral's new OCR tackles messy tables and handwriting for pennies
Mistral AI just introduced Mistral OCR 3, an upgraded vision model built to turn messy real-world paperwork into clean Markdown and structured JSON. It notches a 74% win rate over version 2 on tricky formats like handwriting, merged-cell tables, and warped scans. Pricing starts at $2 per 1,000 pages, dropping to $1 via the Batch API. Why it matters: Enterprise agents live and die by document quality, and Mistral is aggressively driving down the cost of feeding them reliable data.
