#When specifying mistral-ocr as plugin, only gemini usage is shown in activity

I have the request which I attached which uses gemini flash, but as mistral-ocr is better for doing ocr on pdfs, how to make sure it's being used? When checking the activity section on my openrouter profile, I only see gemini usage for that request.

Generation ID is: gen-1754234857-2WBv33Kbdvn8kIgbJOqW

Thanks for any help!

If your request specifies mistral-ocr but the activity shows only Gemini usage, it likely means the request was routed or executed using Gemini instead. To ensure mistral-ocr is used:

  1. Verify your API request explicitly sets mistral-ocr as the plugin or model.
  2. Confirm that mistral-ocr is available and correctly configured in your OpenRouter dashboard or API parameters.
  3. Check if any default or fallback settings cause Gemini to be used instead.
  4. For issues or discrepancies in request routing or usage tracking, please contact the OpenRouter support team or your Discord admin for help.

I don’t see mistral-ocr details or usage info in the available data, so direct support is best here.

Are you integrating this OCR for automated PDF processing or manual use?

Thanks for replying!

I just noticed that the request is more expensive than without mistral-ocr. That could be a clear indication of it.

It's hard to determine whether the recognition rate is better than before, since it was already very good with gemini 2.5 flash (and without mistral).
