Mistral, the French AI startup, unveiled Forge, a platform that enables enterprises and governments to train custom AI models using their own data. Announced at Nvidia's GTC conference, Forge offers a library of open-weight models, including the new Mistral Small 4, and provides forward‑deployed engineers to guide customers through data preparation, evaluation, and infrastructure choices. Early partners such as Ericsson, the European Space Agency, Reply, and Singapore’s DSO and HTX are already testing the service. Mistral aims to address the gap where off‑the‑shelf models trained on internet data fail to understand specific business contexts, positioning itself as a serious contender against OpenAI and Anthropic in the enterprise market.
