Mistral Small 4 endpoint guide
2 of 2 Mistral Small 4 endpoints currently have the published data required for this ranking. Mistral leads at 5.39 s via mistral. The table keeps unranked routes visible so missing measurements do not look like missing provider availability.
The fastest ranking estimates a 500-token answer by adding the recent median first-token wait to 500 divided by median output throughput. It represents an example complete response, not a guarantee for every prompt or request size.
Venice currently ranks second at 31.80 s. Compare that gap with input and output price, response-start time, output speed, 30-minute uptime, context length, and the exact route before deciding whether first place is meaningful for your workload.
Mistral Small 4 has 2 published provider options, and performance data is matched to each exact OpenRouter routing tag. Different quantization, context, regional deployment, or provider configuration can change price and behavior even when the underlying model name is identical.
