Mistral releases Timestral, its first family of time-series forecasting models

Mistral announced Timestral on October 15, 2026 as its first family of time-series foundation models, available in four sizes from 5M to 209M parameters.

• Mistral says the largest model, at 209M parameters, ranks first on the GIFT-Eval, TIME and fev-bench public benchmarks, and that the models produce probabilistic, multivariate forecasts and support past and known-future covariates.
• Mistral says Timestral is available through Mistral Forge.
• API pricing and open-weights availability were not published in the announcement.
