Comprehensive side-by-side LLM comparison
Mistral Small 3.1 24B Instruct supports multimodal inputs. Both models have their strengths depending on your specific coding needs.
xAI
Grok 3 mini, released by xAI alongside Grok 3 in February 2025, is a compact reasoning model from the Grok 3 family featuring RL-enhanced Think mode for extended chain-of-thought processing. It features a 131K token context window and targets STEM tasks, mathematics, and coding applications where cost-efficient reasoning with configurable depth is required.
Mistral AI
Mistral Small 3.1 is a 24-billion-parameter multimodal model from Mistral AI, released in March 2025 as an update to Mistral Small 3 that added vision understanding and expanded the context window from 32K to 128K tokens. The model accepts both text and image inputs, broadening its applicability to document analysis, image-grounded reasoning, and mixed-media workflows without requiring an increase in parameter count. Released under Apache 2.0, it continued Mistral's pattern of incremental capability gains delivered in compact, practically deployable open-weight packages.
