# MistralAI-Training

MistralAI-Training is Mistral's training only crawler token. Blocking it costs nothing in the AI readiness score.

Crawls web content to build the datasets that train Mistral's generative models; not used for search or live answers. Mistral says a robots.txt disallow keeps a site out.

## Where this comes from

- **Documented by the vendor.** Source: [docs.mistral.ai](https://docs.mistral.ai/robots)
- **Honours robots.txt.**
- **Listed, not scored.** It cannot keep a site out of today's answers, so the check shows a block without deducting for it.

## In the top 1,000 websites

Not measured in the October 2026 study of the top 1,000 websites.

## What blocking it costs

Nothing in today's answers, and nothing in the readiness score: MistralAI-Training only gathers training data, so blocking it is a policy choice about future models, not about being found. The check lists the block without deducting for it.

## The robots.txt lines

To let it in (a group that names the crawler replaces any wildcard rules for it, so this also lifts a `User-agent: *` block):

```
User-agent: MistralAI-Training
Allow: /
```

To keep it out:

```
User-agent: MistralAI-Training
Disallow: /
```

A rule in robots.txt is a request. Mistral says this crawler honours it. The [robots.txt generator](https://www.crawlreadiness.com/tools/robots-txt) writes a whole file with the same split: block the training crawlers, keep the search and answer crawlers.
