Mistral AI announced Voxtral 3 on October 20, 2026, a suite of speech-to-text, text-to-speech, and voice agent models with an integrated SDK. Pro Voice enables high-fidelity voice adaptation using up to 30 minutes of reference audio. API access is expected to cost approximately $0.001 per minute, meaning a full hour of processing would run about six cents. The company claims Voxtral 3 outperforms OpenAI, ElevenLabs, and Whisper large-v3 on various benchmarks. Voxtral 3 stands out for its open-weight approach, allowing developers to access model weights rather than relying on proprietary API access.
