Timestral 5M

Mistral numerical model family released on October 15, 2026 in four sizes: 5M, 28M, 123M and 209M. It performs zero-shot univariate and multivariate probabilistic forecasting. It accepts history, past covariates and known future covariates; it neither chats nor generates text.

BEST SUITED FOR

Forecasting sensors, demand and capacity. It processes up to 32,768 historical time steps and predicts 1,024 steps per pass, with 21 quantiles. Official code supports CPU or GPU inference and evaluation on your own data.

WORTH MONITORING

Limits are time steps, not tokens. Predictions do not guarantee future outcomes. Avoid future-data leakage during validation and check distribution shifts. The Modified MIT license restricts rights when consolidated monthly revenue exceeds USD 20 million.

05 / EVALUATIONS

How to read the results

“

Metrics reported by Mistral for each checkpoint, not reproduced by Inferama. Lower MASE and CRPS are better; higher fev-bench skill scores are better. These are not accuracy percentages or conversational tests. The technical report is still pending.

Inferama only highlights a “best result” when the metric, test set, configuration, and date allow for an equivalent comparison. The supplier's figures are presented as claims from its own source.
