Tuya Smart Integrates Mistral AI Model to Enhance European AI Hardware
Berlin, Thursday, 13 February 2025.
Tuya Smart integrates Mistral AI’s model to boost AI hardware innovation in Europe, improving smart device capabilities and aligning with EU data regulations as of February 12, 2025.
Advanced AI Integration
The integration of Mistral AI’s Le Chat model into Tuya Smart’s cloud developer platform marks a significant technological advancement, with Le Chat processing an impressive 1,100 tokens per second - approximately 1,000 words - making it 13 times faster than ChatGPT [1]. This strategic move comes at a crucial time, as the European AI hardware market experienced remarkable growth of 217% year-over-year in 2024 [1][3].
European Market Focus and Data Compliance
This integration addresses critical market concerns, particularly regarding data security and privacy. With 73% of European consumers expressing resistance to AI applications involving cross-border data transmission [1], Tuya Smart’s platform now enables localized data collection, storage, and processing in full compliance with EU regulations [1]. The company has established strong partnerships with prominent European brands including Schneider, Danfoss, Hama, and Calex [1], positioning itself strategically in the European market.
Technical Capabilities and Market Impact
The integration enhances Tuya’s cloud developer platform, which currently serves over 1.26 million developers and supports more than 2,800 smart product categories [1]. The platform now facilitates multi-model AI applications, incorporating various AI models including DeepSeek, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, and Nova [1]. This development has had a significant impact on Tuya’s market performance, with the company experiencing a 160.66% increase in share price, attributed to reduced costs of AI models [3].
Future Outlook and Ecosystem Development
Tuya Smart’s commitment to innovation extends beyond the Mistral AI integration. The company recently announced full integration with Google Home APIs [5], demonstrating its dedication to creating a comprehensive smart ecosystem. This development, combined with the Le Chat integration, positions Tuya Smart at the forefront of AI hardware innovation in Europe, with a clear focus on maintaining data localization and fostering an open ecosystem strategy [1].
