| What’s different | MiniMax-01 is a combines MiniMax-Text-01 for text generation and MiniMax-VL-01 for image understanding. It has 456 billion parameters, with 45.9 billion parameters activated per inference, and can handle a… | MiniMax-M3 is a multimodal foundation model from MiniMax. It supports text, image, and video inputs with text output, a 1M-token context window, and is suited for long-horizon agentic work, coding,... | Tuned for quick iteration on scoped fixes and documents; Anthropic favors Opus 5.5 for open-ended work needing sustained judgment. |
