Mistral releases its genAI assistant Le Chat for IOS and Android

French AI company Mistral has released several updates to its generative AI assistant Le Chat and made it available on Android and iOS. Mistral describes the tool as a comprehensive genAI assistant for both life and work that can be used to access the latest news, plan daily tasks, keep track of projects, upload and summarize documents, and more.

Le Chat is accessed through a chat-like user interface and, according to Mistral, has the fastest inference model in the world. It is also reported to be significantly better at generating images than OpenAI ChatGPT. But Le Chat does not yet have a voice mode.

The AI assistant is available in both a free version and a new paid version that costs $15.49 per month. The paid subscription provides access to the company’s latest AI model, higher user limits, and the ability to opt out of sharing data with Mistral.

Enterprise users now have the option to deploy Le Chat in their own environment with custom models and a customized user interface. That is not yet possible with, for example, ChatGPT Enterprise or Claude Enterprise.

In November, Mistral rolled out a tool to automatically delete offending content.
