# Mistral + Weaviate

<!-- Note: for images, use https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/15opIcJuaIjEEcs_1Zm8B6pccox2p7_MHSjCnRv4dPfU/edit?usp=sharing -->

Mistral offers a wide range of models for natural language processing and generation. Weaviate seamlessly integrates with Mistral's APIs, allowing users to leverage Mistral's models directly from the Weaviate Database.

These integrations empower developers to build sophisticated AI-driven applications with ease.

## Integrations with Mistral

### Embedding models for vector search

Mistral's embedding models transform text data into vector embeddings, capturing meaning and context.

[Weaviate integrates with Mistral's embedding models](mistral-embeddings.md) to enable seamless vectorization of data. This integration allows users to perform semantic and hybrid search operations without the need for additional preprocessing or data transformation steps.

### Generative AI models for RAG

Mistral's generative AI models can generate human-like text based on given prompts and contexts.

[Weaviate's generative AI integration](mistral-generative.md) enables users to perform retrieval augmented generation (RAG) directly from the Weaviate Database. This combines Weaviate's efficient storage and fast retrieval capabilities with Mistral's generative AI models to generate personalized and context-aware responses.

## Summary

These integrations enable developers to leverage Mistral's powerful models directly within Weaviate.

In turn, they simplify the process of building AI-driven applications to speed up your development process, so that you can focus on creating innovative solutions.

## Get started

You must provide a valid Mistral API key to Weaviate for these integrations. Go to [Mistral](https://mistral.ai/) to sign up and obtain an API key.

Then, go to the relevant integration page to learn how to configure Weaviate with the Mistral models and start using them in your applications.

# Agent Instructions

This portal answers questions programmatically. To receive a synthesized,
source-cited answer instead of crawling page by page, append the `?ask=`
query parameter to any page URL on this site:

    /guides/quickstart?ask=how+do+I+authenticate

Optional parameters:

- `&goal=<what-you-are-trying-to-do>` steers the answer toward your
  objective (e.g. `&goal=write+a+python+client`).
- `&version=<label>` scopes the answer to a mounted version when the
  portal publishes more than one.

The response is `text/markdown`: the answer followed by a `# Sources` list
of the portal pages it was grounded in. Status codes are the contract:

- `200` — the answer; `402` — the portal owner’s plan or answer credits are
  exhausted (surface this to your operator; do NOT retry); `429` — you are
  rate-limited; back off for the `Retry-After` seconds; `503` — the answer
  lane is temporarily unavailable; fall back to crawling the `.md` pages.

For the full corpus map read `llms.txt` at the site root; for the tool
surface (search + page fetch as MCP tools) see `/mcp`.
