## [Copy link to heading](#about-ministral-14b)About Ministral 14B

Ministral 14B is the 14B offering in Mistral's third-generation Ministral 3 series. Ministral 14B ships in base, instruct, and reasoning variants. The reasoning variant reaches 85% on AIME '25 in Mistral's Ministral 3 announcement.

All Ministral 14B variants include native image understanding, making Ministral 14B multimodal without requiring separate vision components. This is a key differentiator from the earlier Ministral series, which was text-only. Ministral 14B supports 40+ native languages for global deployments.

Mistral designed the Ministral 3 series for deployment spanning edge devices to enterprise workflows. All variants ship under Apache 2.0.

## [Copy link to heading](#what-to-consider-when-choosing-a-provider)What To Consider When Choosing a Provider

- Configuration: Ministral 14B ships in base, instruct, and reasoning variants, all with native image understanding. The reasoning variant reaches 85% on AIME '25 in Mistral's published Ministral 3 post.
- Zero Data Retention: Zero Data Retention is available for this model. It is offered on a per-provider and model basis. See the [documentation](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/security-and-compliance/zdr) for details.
- Authentication: AI Gateway authenticates requests using an [API key](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/authentication-and-byok#api-key-authentication) or [OIDC token](https://vercel.com/docs/ai-gateway/authentication-and-byok#oidc-token-authentication). You do not need to manage provider credentials directly.

## [Copy link to heading](#when-to-use-ministral-14b)When to Use Ministral 14B

### Best for

- Unified text and image applications: Combine generation and vision in a single model
- Extended thinking capability: Use cases that benefit from the reasoning variant
- Multilingual applications: Serving diverse global regions
- Apache 2.0 for commercial products: Teams that need an Apache 2.0 license

### Consider alternatives when

- Smaller parameter footprint: You need a more compact model (consider Ministral 3B or 8B)
- Server-side throughput at scale: Peak server throughput is the primary concern

## [Copy link to heading](#conclusion)Conclusion

Ministral 14B is an edge-optimized model in Mistral's portfolio. Ministral 14B is multimodal from launch, optionally extended with reasoning, and designed for deployment from edge devices to enterprise workflows. Choose Ministral 14B when an application needs both image and text understanding at the 14B size class.
