Mistral Studio, formerly La Plateforme, is Mistral AI's developer console and API for using its models.
In plain words
Developers create an API key in their Studio workspace and use it in code, through Mistral's SDKs, API or command-line tool. Studio is where they create agents, workflows and apps, put them into production and keep improving them from real usage; agents and workflows can be hosted by Mistral or on a company's own servers. A playground lets you send prompts and compare what different models return. When it launched it offered three chat endpoints and an embedding endpoint.
A quick example
Imagine a developer comparing two Mistral models for summarising reports. They try both in the playground with the same prompt, pick one, create an API key, and call it from their app.
