WHAT IT DOES
MiniMax-M3.1-Flash is MiniMax's multimodal agent model, with weights on Hugging Face under the MiniMax community licence. The model card describes a mixture of experts with about 428 billion total parameters and 23 billion active per token. It takes text, images and video, returns text, and supports up to 1 million tokens of context. It is also on the MiniMax API and in MiniMax Agent. MiniMax reports 76.2 on BankerToolBench, 73.7 percent on DeepSWE v1.1 and 61.7 on OSWorld V2. VentureBeat reported an API price of $0.15 per million input tokens and $0.60 per million output tokens, and a 93 percent rate on Artificial Analysis's AA-Omniscience test where the model guessed instead of abstaining.
WHY WE PICKED IT
It is the MiniMax model you can download now, built for coding and computer-use agents at a price VentureBeat put well below the frontier APIs. The same report is why the hallucination rate belongs in the listing.
QUICK FACTS
