Mistral Spend and Usage Governance

Overview

Turn spend into an attributable operating signal. Use live billing/model evidence, distinguish attempted from completed work, and require quality and safety evaluation before workflow changes.

Prerequisites

• Authorized billing/usage evidence with observation time.
• Operation-level usage, retry, caching, and business-outcome metrics.
• A spend owner, budget period, alerts, and evaluation set.

Current Contract

Billing, model rates, and workspace limits vary by plan and time. Do not hard-code a price table, context size, batch discount, or model recommendation.

Authentication

Billing review uses an authorized admin session; inference uses the server-side key. Receipts exclude credentials, prompts, responses, invoices, and personal billing details.
