What is Ministral-3-3B-Instruct-2512-BF16?

OMW evidence review3 Oct 2026

Open Model Weights records Ministral-3-3B-Instruct-2512-BF16 as a 4B-parameter text open-weight model in the Ministral 3 family, with Mistral AI listed as the developer. The checked source repository provides 4 recognized weight artifacts, format evidence for Safetensors and a verified context window of 262,144 tokens. Values that are not evidenced in the checked sources remain explicitly undisclosed or unknown.

The repository declares Apache-2.0. Commercial use allowed under Apache-2.0 conditions. Open Model Weights reports the checked license evidence and classification; this is not legal advice.

Lineage metadata declares mistralai/Ministral-3-3B-Base-2512 as a related base model with the relation declared relationship. A training recipe and standard training-data disclosure were not found by the current verifier.

LINEAGE & PROVENANCE

What the checked sources disclose — and what they do not.

Open Model Weights does not infer a hidden base model or training corpus when the checked sources do not declare one.

RUNTIME SIGNALS

Compatibility claims stay attached to their evidence level.

Declared and model-card-mentioned runtimes are discovery signals. They are not treated as Open Model Weights runtime tests unless explicitly measured.
