Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Mistral AI
- Smaller model selection compared to OpenAI; Mistral Medium 3.5 significantly more expensive than competing mid-tier models
- Batch processing only available at 50% discount, not free tier
- No free tier; all API access requires payment
Alteryx
- Starter is $250 per user per month billed annually, and the Professional and Enterprise editions are quote-only
- Automation runs are metered, with 50 included on Starter and 15,000 on Professional, and more must be bought
- Cost depends on three separate dimensions at once: edition, user role and automation capacity
- Advanced analytics, governance and orchestration are withheld from the entry edition
