| What’s different | MiniMax-M3 is a native multimodal model with 1M context. It has ~428B parameters and ~23B activated parameters. | Step 3.7 Flash is StepFun's latest high-efficiency multimodal Mixture-of-Experts model. It pairs a 196B-parameter language backbone with a vision encoder for native image and video understanding, activating… | Long decode can use the unified 1M-token budget for output; reads video, audio and PDFs, with implicit-only caching. |
