    Mistral AI launches Agentic Search

    Mistral AI launched Agentic Search, a multi-step retrieval technology built on existing enterprise search indexes that gives models five file-system-like tools (search, open, navigate, read, grep) to iteratively inspect and compare long complex documents. In FinanceBench tests on 368 SEC filings averaging about 147 pages, accuracy rose about threefold with the search loop alone and up to 86% with the full navigation toolchain, while p90 latency and token consumption fell. It supports cloud and on-premises deployment and can be embedded in Studio and Vibe Libraries or integrated via the Mistral Search Toolkit.
