MistralAI-Index

MistralAI-Index crawls pages to build the search index an AI platform answers from. Most operators use a separate user agent for each job, so you can usually allow or block one without affecting the others.

Crawlers that build search indexes used by AI platforms. Access supports discovery but does not guarantee a listing or citation.

Requests from MistralAI-Index carry this token in their user agent string. Match the token rather than a full string, which changes as Mistral AI updates versions.

To block MistralAI-Index, add this to the robots.txt at the root of your site:

Blocking it keeps your pages out of that index, so the platform has less of your content to find and cite. Allowing it makes your pages eligible, not guaranteed, to appear in answers.

To allow it explicitly, for example after a broader rule blocks other crawlers:

Check what your robots.txt allows for MistralAI-Index and the other AI crawlers in this directory.

Mistral AI publishes the IP addresses MistralAI-Index uses. A request that claims to be MistralAI-Index from any other address is not genuine.

SurfacedBy's AI traffic tracking recognizes MistralAI-Index in the user agent and checks each request against Mistral AI's published addresses. Only requests that pass count as crawls; the rest are shown separately.
