Plans

Free to run, with the right plan

Ask Mistral AI does not use Datablist credits, so there is no cost to estimate. Here is what you need.

Datablist credits: None. This enrichment is free to run.
Mistral usage: Mistral bills your own account for API usage. Mistral's Free mode has usage and rate limits, so large files may need a paid setup on their side.
Running in the app: No paid Datablist plan needed. Add your API key, write your prompt and run it.
Running through the API or MCP: Needs the Growth plan. The enrichment stays free of credits, but API and MCP access come with Growth.

Good to know

Mistral's Free mode does not need a credit card, but usage and rate limits apply. If your run hits those limits, lower Max Concurrent Calls or upgrade your Mistral account.

The Process

How it Works

Write one prompt, point it at your data and run it on every row.

Step 1

Add your key and prompt

Paste your Mistral API key, then write one prompt for the whole file. Type a slash to insert a column such as the company name. Add a system prompt to set the format, for example to return just the result.

Step 2

Test on a small batch

Run the prompt on the first 10 rows and read the results. Adjust the wording, the system prompt or the model until the answers match what you expect, before you spend time on the full file.

Step 3

Run the full list

Datablist sends one request per row, manages throttling and retries, and tracks a status for each row. Filter the failed rows and rerun only those.
