I was processing 55 year old paper files, most of them severely degraded, with its predecessor model. I was very impressed! I also tried Abbyy Finereader but it didn't even come close in my experience.

Is there something wrong with their certificate? Chromium is saying https isn't valid

Looks good to me on both brave (on android) and firefox (on windows 11). Lets see what ssl labs says (it is running now)

Looks good so far, A+ on ipv4 as well as ipv6

Edit: I also asked Gemini 3.1 Pro to analyze the certificate and it looks good

It looks like you have shared an `about:certificate` URL containing a chain of three Base64-encoded X.509 TLS/SSL certificates. This specific chain is used to secure connections to *mistral.ai*.

Here is the decoded breakdown of the certificate chain you provided:

## Certificate Chain Overview

This is a standard three-tier certificate chain issued by Google Trust Services for the Mistral AI domain.

---

### 1. Leaf Certificate (End-Entity)

This is the specific certificate issued to the website to verify its identity and encrypt traffic.

* *Subject (Common Name):* `mistral.ai` * *Subject Alternative Names (SANs):* `mistral.ai`, `workers.mistral.ai` * *Issuer:* WE1 (Google Trust Services) * *Valid From:* June 13, 2026 * *Valid To:* September 11, 2026 * *Key Type:* Elliptic Curve (ECDSA)

### 2. Intermediate Certificate

This certificate acts as a bridge between the website's certificate and the trusted Root CA.

* *Subject:* WE1 (Google Trust Services) * *Issuer:* GTS Root R4 (Google Trust Services LLC) * *Valid From:* December 13, 2023 * *Valid To:* February 20, 2029 * *Key Type:* Elliptic Curve (ECDSA)

### 3. Root Certificate

This is the foundational trust anchor pre-installed in browsers and operating systems.

* *Subject:* GTS Root R4 (Google Trust Services LLC) * *Issuer:* GTS Root R4 (Self-signed) * *Valid From:* June 22, 2016 * *Valid To:* June 22, 2036 * *Key Type:* Elliptic Curve (ECDSA)

Are there benchmarks for how this performs on charts, or maybe more accurately, plots? I've yet to find a model that can digitize a plot into X,Y points with some accuracy in my use case of digitizing old datasheets.

"A note on out-of-scope use. OCR 4 is a document-understanding model, not a decision-maker. It is not intended for medical diagnosis, legal advice or judgment, high-stakes financial decisions, safety-critical systems, real-time/latency-sensitive processing, or non-document inputs (raw audio, video, etc.). "

Can't wait for the "oh so innovative" manager who will suggest during the next meeting "Ok... but what if WE used it for high-stakes financial decisions on non-document inputs like a photo from my phone?"

I guarantee you somebody on HN is going to comment about this "idea" next week.
