From original readme

Mistral Small 3 ( 2501 ) sets a new benchmark in the "small" Large Language Models category below 70B, boasting 24B parameters and achieving state-of-the-art capabilities comparable to larger models!
This model is an instruction-fine-tuned version of the base model: Mistral-Small-24B-Base-2501.

Mistral Small can be deployed locally and is exceptionally "knowledge-dense", fitting in a single RTX 4090 or a 32GB RAM MacBook once quantized.
Perfect for:

• Fast response conversational agents.
• Low latency function calling.
• Subject matter experts via fine-tuning.
• Local inference for hobbyists and organizations handling sensitive data.

For enterprises that need specialized capabilities (increased context, particular modalities, domain specific knowledge, etc.), we will be releasing commercial models beyond what Mistral AI contributes to the community.

This release demonstrates our commitment to open source, serving as a strong base model.

Key Features

• Multilingual: Supports dozens of languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Dutch, and Polish.
• Agent-Centric: Offers best-in-class agentic capabilities with native function calling and JSON outputting.
• Advanced Reasoning: State-of-the-art conversational and reasoning capabilities.
• Apache 2.0 License: Open license allowing usage and modification for both commercial and non-commercial purposes.
• Context Window: A 32k context window.
• System Prompt: Maintains strong adherence and support for system prompts.
• Tokenizer: Utilizes a Tekken tokenizer with a 131k vocabulary size.

Usage

The model can be used with the following frameworks;

• vllm: See here
• transformers: See here

vLLM

We recommend using this model with the vLLM library to implement production-ready inference pipelines.

Note 1: We recommond using a relatively low temperature, such as temperature=0.15.

Note 2: Make sure to add a system prompt to the model to best tailer it for your needs. If you want to use the model as a general assistant, we recommend the following system prompt:

system_prompt = """You are Mistral Small 3, a Large Language Model (LLM) created by Mistral AI, a French startup headquartered in Paris.
Your knowledge base was last updated on 2023-10-01. The current date is 2025-01-30.
When you're not sure about some information, you say that you don't have the information and don't make up anything.
If the user's question is not clear, ambiguous, or does not provide enough context for you to accurately answer the question, you do not try to answer it right away and you rather ask the user to clarify their request (e.g. \"What are some good restaurants around me?\" => \"Where are you?\" or \"When is the next flight to Tokyo\" => \"Where do you travel from?\")"""
