§ 03 / TOKENIZER

What's a token →
Calibrated · measured on the vendor's tokenizer · 2026-06-10 Auto-counts as you type

Counts use a chars-per-token calibration measured on the vendor's own published tokenizer (mistralai/Mistral-Nemo-Instruct-2407, 2026-06-10). English prose is typically within a few percent; code and non-Latin scripts tokenize heavier. For billing-exact counts use the vendor's count-tokens API.

Codestral 2405 API pricing FAQ.

Practical pricing questions, with archive status separated from current pricing.

Q · 01 What is Codestral 2405 priced at? +
Codestral 2405 is shown at $0.2/M input and $0.6/M output. For retired rows, this is an archive baseline, not a current availability claim.
Q · 02 Is Codestral 2405 still available? +
Codestral 2405 is marked as retired in the current Mistral docs. New production work should normally move to codestral.
Q · 03 Does this model have prompt-cache pricing? +
Mistral does not publish a separate cache-read SKU for this row. The calculator therefore sets cached input to $0.2/M, the same as normal input, and does not invent a discount.
Q · 04 How is the effective price calculated? +
AI//COST uses the same agentic blend everywhere: 92% input, 8% output, and only published cache discounts. For Codestral 2405, that is $0.23/M.
Q · 05 Why keep an archive page? +
Archive pages are useful for invoice checks, migration planning, and comparing how model pricing compressed over time. They are clearly labeled so retired API rows do not look like current recommendations.
Q · 06 Are there regional surcharges? +
The Mistral public pricing page is denominated in USD and EUR. This page stores the USD baseline; currency conversion and localized calculator variants are handled elsewhere on AI//COST.
