Mistral AI launched Agentic Search to deliver more accurate results. This tool helps AI systems navigate complex documents efficiently.
How It Works
Traditional search retrieves fixed text chunks in one pass. Agentic Search uses a multi-step retrieval loop instead.
The system finds, inspects, and verifies information across sources. Models can use five tools: search, open, navigate, read, and grep.
Performance Gains
Accuracy on financial filings rose from 26.7% to 86%. Table-heavy questions in OfficeQA Pro saw a 45.6 point gain.
Latency dropped up to 39.6% through targeted navigation. Token consumption fell by up to one-third due to fewer repeated searches.
Why it matters
Agentic Search handles sensitive data without crossing isolation boundaries. It builds on existing indexes while adding powerful navigation tools.
