Mistral AI, the European AI

Mistral AI was founded in April 2023 in Paris. It offers an online assistant, Vibe (formerly Le Chat, still at the same address), in two versions: Vibe for Work and Vibe for Code.

Mistral also publishes open models: several of them, including Mistral 7B, Mixtral and Mistral Small, are under the Apache 2.0 license, which allows commercial use. You can install them in your company, without depending on an online service.

For a European company, it is a simple combination to explain to your data protection officer: the assistant comes from a European company, and the email marketing data is hosted in Switzerland at Mailpro.

What Mistral brings to your email marketing

Multilingual campaigns

Mistral writes naturally in French, German, Italian, Spanish and English: each list gets its own language.

Approval tool by tool

In Vibe, each Mailpro tool can stay under manual approval, or be allowed once and for all.

The same tools, online or on-premises

Vibe for the marketing team, a Mistral model installed in-house for sensitive data.

Work from your documents

A price list, a product sheet, meeting minutes: Mistral turns them into an email and prepares it in Mailpro.

Example requests to Mistral

  • →“Translate the March newsletter into German and Italian, and prepare one campaign per list.”

Add Mailpro in Vibe

1

In Vibe, open Connectors, click + Add Connector then the Custom MCP Connector tab.

2

Enter a name without spaces (“Mailpro”) and paste the server address shown in your Mailpro account, on the AI Assistants (MCP) page, then click Connect.

3

Vibe detects the OAuth sign-in and opens the Mailpro page: sign in and accept the permissions.

4

In Vibe, choose which tools stay under approval; in Mailpro, set how it sends and the daily cap.

Adding a custom connector is limited to the admin; on the Free, Pro and Student plans, the account holder is the admin. For a Mistral model running on your own hardware: see self-hosted AI.

Good to know with Mistral

Le Chat is now called Vibe

Tutorials that mention Le Chat are still valid: it is the same assistant, at the same address, under a new name.

Two levels of approval

Vibe can ask for your approval before each tool call; Mailpro can ask for your approval before each send. You set both.

Pick the open model by its license

Mistral 7B, Mixtral and Mistral Small are under Apache 2.0; for other models, check the license before commercial use.

On the Mailpro side, the rules are the same for every assistant: by default, each send waits for your approval, or goes out directly within a daily cap; a log keeps track of everything, and one click suspends all sends. The details.
