Benchmarks
| Benchmark | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| miniF2F | 100% | High school → math olympiad; full saturation |

| FATE-H | 87% | Algebra, hard tier |
| FATE-X | 34% | Algebra, expert tier |
Use Cases
- Formal verification: generating Lean 4 proofs for functions and algorithms
- Automated theorem proving: mathematically rigorous derivations
- Agentic proof engineering: multi-step proof construction with tool use
- Real-world code verification: found 5 previously unknown bugs across 57 open-source repositories
Compared To
Mistral has not published a direct head-to-head comparison against other formal verification models (e.g., DeepSeek-Prover, Kimina-Prover). The 100% miniF2F score and 587/672 PutnamBench are best-in-class as of July 2026.
Why It Matters
Formal verification has historically required specialized expertise in proof assistants (Lean, Coq, Isabelle). A 6.5B active-parameter model that saturates miniF2F and discovers real bugs in production code dramatically lowers the barrier to deploying mathematically certified software. The Apache 2.0 license makes it commercially viable for aerospace, finance, and critical infrastructure.

Open Questions
- How does Leanstral 1.5 compare to DeepSeek-Prover v2 and other dedicated formal-proof models?
- Does the model generalize beyond Lean 4 to other proof assistants (Coq, Isabelle)?
- Will Mistral release a fine-tuning recipe for domain-specific verification tasks?
