Ministral 3 14B
Ministral 3 14B is an open-source text generation model from Mistral with a 256,000-token context window.
Compact open-source text generation from Mistral
Ministral 3 14B is a text generation model developed by Mistral and released in December 2025. It is part of Mistral's Ministral model family and is available as an open-source release, meaning the weights can be accessed and used outside of proprietary API constraints. The model supports a 256,000-token context window and produces responses up to 16,000 tokens in length.
With its large context window, Ministral 3 14B is suited for tasks that require processing long documents, extended conversations, or multi-step instructions within a single prompt. Its 14-billion parameter scale positions it as a mid-size model that balances capability with deployment flexibility. Being open source, it is particularly relevant for developers and organizations that need to run models in self-hosted or on-premise environments.
