The international site answered with a bot check, so access from outside China was not established\n\n\n## Why the edge\n\n### Transparency \u0026 trust: Mistral AI API +26\n\n- Mistral AI API (80): Closed service with clear terms, SDKs Apache-2.0, and several models published as open weights. Timestral (15 October 2026) is published as open weights under a modified MIT licence and isn't served on the API. Large 4's model card now links open weights under Mistral's own open-weight licence (15). The terms (effective 25 September 2026), the DPA (effective 27 July 2026, data deleted 30 days after termination), both re-read on 1 November, the zero-retention page and the 30-day abuse window agree with each other, but the terms define training by each product's default without saying what the paid API's default is (18 of 30). Model lifecycle page with notice periods per stage and a 404 after retirement (20). The DPA points to a subprocessor list at trust.mistral.ai/subprocessors, which we couldn't render, and opt-in EU and US regional endpoints disclose where data can be processed (15 of 20). 15+18+20+15 = 68.\n- Tencent Cloud TokenHub (54): Closed service under the TokenHub Terms of Service (effective 14 September 2026), the SLA (23 April 2026), a special note on third-party deployed models and the Tencent Cloud Service Agreement, naming Tencent Cloud Computing (Beijing) Co., Ltd. The CLI is Apache-2.0 (18 of 30). The terms and the FAQ agree that inputs are processed on the customer's instructions and not used for training, and clause 2.14 limits retention to what the service needs without periods. The TokenHub privacy policy on privacy.qq.com renders only with JavaScript and was not read (15 of 30). Dated retirement notices, shutdown dates in the model list, a `pre-offline` status in `/v1/models` and a `DiscontinuedAt` field in the control API. Clause 6.3 refunds paid, unused tokens when a third-party model is removed. No minimum notice period is written (13 of 20). Clause 2.13 places processing generally in mainland China for the China site and in Singapore for the international site, and the third-party model list names DeepSeek's Hangzhou company with a link to its terms. No subprocessor list was found (13 of 20).\n\n### Schema \u0026 documentation: Mistral AI API +20\n\n- Mistral AI API (93): Public OpenAPI 3.1.0 document at docs.mistral.ai/openapi.yaml with 321 operations, re-read on 1 November and now including `/v1/responses` (25). llms.txt with Markdown twins of every page, re-read on 1 November (10). Reference not read in full (15 of 20). Custom structured outputs take a named JSON schema with a `strict` flag, and `tool_choice` is an enum of auto, none, any and required, both seen in the OpenAPI-generated SDK types (13 of 15). Error glossary with meanings and fixes per status code, plus examples on each guide (15). Release notes and dated model versions (15). 25+10+15+13+15+15 = 93.\n- Tencent Cloud TokenHub (73): Router, scored on the API lines. No OpenAPI file for the inference routes. Field pages document the OpenAI Chat Completions, OpenAI Responses and Anthropic Messages formats as TokenHub implements them, and the control plane is a Tencent Cloud API 3.0 service (version 2026-03-22) with typed parameters, API Explorer and SDKs (12 of 25). An llms.txt at cloud.tencent.com/document/product/1823/llms.txt links a Markdown copy of each docs page (10). The docs say which models support thinking, tools, structured output and caching, how TokenHub departs from each standard protocol, and which DeepSeek model suits which job. The quickstart's examples still use `deepseek-v3`, which is not in the model list, and Qwen3.5 stays in the list with a past shutdown date (13 of 20). Protocol pages list each field with type, required flag and default, and control-plane parameters carry enums and required flags (10 of 15). Examples in curl, Python, Node.js, Java and Go, and an error page listing 30 codes with HTTP status, cause and fix (14 of 15). Paths carry `/v1`, release notes are dated monthly from 7 April to 24 October 2026, and the control-plane API has a dated history of 26 releases to 18 September 2026 (14 of 15).\n\n### Agent ergonomics: Mistral AI API +8\n\n- Mistral AI API (91): Model reading of the checklist (tool use, structured output, caching, context, batch, SDKs, errors), per the 2 and 12 October checks. Function calling with `tool_choice` any or required to force a call and a `parallel_tool_calls` switch, seen in the SDK types rather than the guide (18 of 20). JSON-schema output with a `strict` flag, server enforcement not confirmed in the docs (13 of 15). Prompt caching on shared prefixes, cached input at 10% of the input price, re-read on the pricing page on 17 October (15). 256,000-token context on Medium 3.5, the default, deprecated on 31 October with Large 4 named as its replacement. Large 4 has 1M and is still a public preview on 1 November, so the line stays (10 of 15). A stateless Responses API (`/v1/responses`) arrived in the 23 October SDKs. Batch at half price (10). Official SDKs for Python and TypeScript (10). Error glossary (15). 18+13+15+10+10+10+15 = 91.\n- Tencent Cloud TokenHub (83): Router, read on the model lines. Function calling is marked on most chat models in the model list, with behaviour depending on the model routed (14 of 20). Structured output is marked per model and missing on the MiniMax and Qwen models, and an unsupported `response_format` returns code 400006 (12 of 15). Cache-hit prices are published per model, Kimi K3.1 Pro lists five-minute and one-hour cache writes, and a guide covers `prompt_cache_key` and the `X-Session-ID` header for instance affinity (14 of 15). Most listed chat models have contexts of one million tokens, a judgement call since a router has no default model (15). Batch at half price covers only Hy3 and Hy4 preview, reads and writes JSONL in the customer's own COS bucket and is documented for the Guangzhou endpoint (5 of 10). No TokenHub inference SDK. The OpenAI and Anthropic SDKs work with a changed base URL, and Tencent Cloud SDK 3.0 and the `thcli` CLI cover the control plane (8 of 10). Errors return a code, English and Chinese messages, the source, the upstream code and status and a request ID, and stream errors arrive as SSE error frames (15 of 15).\n\n### Maintenance \u0026 community: Mistral AI API +7\n\n- Mistral AI API (80): Model reading. DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 entered public preview on 28 October 2026 per its model card, after Z.ai GLM 5.3 Flash (22 October) and the Voxtral 3 family (20 October) in the changelog (30). Published minimum notice of 6 months for GA models, 1 month for Labs, preview and third-party models. Medium 3.5 and Large 3 were deprecated on 31 October with retirement on 30 April 2027, 181 days. But Mistral Medium 3 (`mistral-medium-2505`) and Medium 3.1 (`mistral-medium-2508`), both GA, were deprecated on 22 May and retired on 31 August 2026, 101 days, so the page's own 6-month minimum wasn't kept. 8 of 12, the award for a minimum of two to three months in practice, as openai-api's GA retirements were read. Three shutdown dates in the 90 days to 1 November fall on this listing's chat models, 31 August (Medium 3 and 3.1), 30 September (Leanstral 1.5, Labs, dated at release) and 31 October (Z.ai GLM 5.2, third-party, 32 days). Two of the three kept the published notice, so 4 of 8, as openai-api was read. The 17 October count missed 31 August. OCR 4.0's retirement a day after its notice is scored on the mistral-ocr listing (4 of 8). Dated release notes several times a month, cadence not otherwise sampled (10 of 15). SDK repo replies not sampled (5 of 10). `mistralai` 3.6.0 and `@mistralai/mistralai` 3.4.0 on 27 October per each repository's RELEASES.md (git tags stop at 3.2.0 and 3.0.0 of 9 October), with a v2 to v3 migration guide (15 of 15). Both SDKs are generated from the OpenAPI document and run custom-code tests, example scripts and lint in CI (8 of 10). 30+8+4+10+5+15+8 = 80.\n- Tencent Cloud TokenHub (73): Closed service, read on the model lines. The newest release note is dated 24 October 2026 and the price page was updated on 31 October (30). The four retirement notices read gave 21 to 33 days, and eligible callers are switched to a successor at its price. No minimum notice period is written, and DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash (directly supplied) was moved to the 1017 version under the same ids on 17 October 2026 in a notice dated two days later (7 of 12). 18 retirement notices from 21 April to 22 October 2026, 12 of them since 3 August (3 of 8). Dated release notes and announcements, ticket and phone support around the clock and a Q\u0026A community (13 of 15). Replies on the THCLI repository were not sampled (3 of 10). Tencent Cloud SDK 3.0 in several languages covers the control plane and `tencent-tokenhub-cli` 1.0.2 was published on 30 October 2026. No inference SDK of its own (12 of 15). The CLI has four releases since 15 September 2026, lists no runtime dependencies and needs Node.js 18 or later. CI not checked (5 of 10).\n\n### Payments \u0026 pricing: Mistral AI API +5\n\n- Mistral AI API (40): No machine payment protocol (0). Per-token prices published without a login, re-read on 1 November. Mistral Large 4 is now listed at $0.70/$2.10 with cached input at $0.07 (the 17 October check read $1.36/$4.18 with a launch sale), and cached input is 10% across the range (20). Timestral has no API price because it isn't served on the API. Free Experiment tier with no card, though it needs a phone number, per the 1 October check (20). Browser sign-up (0). 0+20+20+0 = 40.\n- Tencent Cloud TokenHub (35): No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Per-token prices for every model are public in CNY for Guangzhou and Singapore, with DeepSeek's peak and off-peak rates (20). Each account gets 1M free tokens per language model, valid for a year, in a campaign running to 31 December 2026. No card is mentioned, but the account needs real-name verification, so this line takes 15 of 20. A person signs up and completes real-name verification in a browser. Keys can then be created in code or by `thcli auth login`, but only from that account (0).\n\n## Score by category\n\n| Category | Weight | Mistral AI API | Tencent Cloud TokenHub | Edge |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reliability | 16% (20 this run) | 50 | 46 | Mistral AI API +4 |\n| Performance | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Schema \u0026 documentation | 13% (16.2 this run) | 93 | 73 | Mistral AI API +20 |\n| Agent ergonomics | 13% (16.2 this run) | 91 | 83 | Mistral AI API +8 |\n| Security \u0026 auth | 14% (17.5 this run) | 73 | 71 | Mistral AI API +2 |\n| Payments \u0026 pricing | 10% (12.5 this run) | 40 | 35 | Mistral AI API +5 |\n| Task success | 10%, pending | pending | pending | not scored in this run |\n| Maintenance \u0026 community | 7% (8.8 this run) | 80 | 73 | Mistral AI API +7 |\n| Transparency \u0026 trust | 7% (8.8 this run) | 80 | 54 | Mistral AI API +26 |\n| Negative events | ≤15 | -6 | -3 | |\n| **Total** | | **65.7 · B** | **59.5 · C** | |\n\n## Facts side by side\n\n| Fact | Mistral AI API | Tencent Cloud TokenHub |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Kind | Model API | Model router |\n| Vendor | Mistral AI | Tencent Cloud |\n| Hosted endpoint | `https://api.mistral.ai/v1` | `https://tokenhub.tencentmaas.com/v1` |\n| Transports | HTTP | HTTP |\n| Auth | API key | API key |\n| Pricing | Freemium | Pay per use |\n| x402 | no | no |\n| Licence | Apache-2.0 (SDKs) | Proprietary service under the TokenHub Terms of Service, the TokenHub SLA and the Tencent Cloud Service Agreement, with a special note for third-party deployed models.

Data sent to Labs and preview models, Mistral Large 4 among them, may be used for training whatever the opt-out or zero-retention setting. The default model, Medium 3.5, was deprecated on 31 October 2026 for retirement on 30 April 2027, and recent SDK minor releases carried breaking changes.\n\n**Tencent Cloud TokenHub.** Keys can be limited to chosen models, source IPs and token quotas, errors name their source and code, and a 99.5% SLA covers paid use of models Tencent runs. Sign-up needs a Tencent Cloud account with real-name verification, prices are in CNY, no public status page was found, and 18 model retirement notices ran from April to October 2026.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### Mistral AI API\n\n1. Stay off `labs-*` and preview models, `mistral-large-4` included while it is in preview, for anything confidential\n2. Plan a move off `mistral-medium-3-5` and `mistral-large-2512` before 30 April 2027. `mistral-medium-latest` still points to Medium 3.5\n3. Pin each SDK to one version. Minor releases of `mistralai` and `@mistralai/mistralai` have removed fields without notice\n4. Treat a 404 on a model id as retirement and read the models page for the replacement\n5. Set `tool_choice` to any to force a tool call, and `strict` on the JSON schema for structured output\n\n### Tencent Cloud TokenHub\n\n1. Use `https://tokenhub.tencentmaas.com/v1` with keys made for Guangzhou and `https://tokenhub-intl.tencentmaas.com/v1` with keys made for Singapore. Keys do not work across the two\n2. Send the key as `Authorization: Bearer` on the OpenAI paths and as `x-api-key` on `/v1/messages`\n3. Parse `error.code` as a string or a number, since 429 codes can come back as integers, and wait for `Retry-After` before retrying\n4. Take model ids from `GET /v1/models` and watch for `pre-offline`. The quickstart's `deepseek-v3` example is not in the current model list\n5. Expect DeepSeek prices to double on weekdays from 9am to noon and 2pm to 6pm Beijing time, when the peak rate applies\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, Mistral AI API or Tencent Cloud TokenHub?\n\nMistral AI API scores 65.7 (B) on agent readiness against Tencent Cloud TokenHub's 59.5 (C), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Do Mistral AI API and Tencent Cloud TokenHub need an API key?\n\nBoth need an API key.\n\n### Can an agent call Mistral AI API and Tencent Cloud TokenHub without installing anything?\n\nYes.
