MiniMax model product
MiniMax-M1 is an open-source, large-scale reasoning model that uses a hybrid-attention architecture for efficient long-context processing. It supports up to a 1 million token context window and 80,000-token reasoning output, matching Gemini 2.5 Pro’s scale while being highly cost-effective. Its Lightning Attention mechanism reduces compute requirements to about 30% of DeepSeek R1’s, and a new reinforcement learning algorithm, CISPO, doubles convergence speed compared to other RL methods. Trained on 512 H800s over three weeks, M1 achieves near state-of-the-art results across software engineering, long-context, and tool-use benchmarks, outperforming most open models and rivaling top closed systems.

Preference and agent-evaluation signals from published Arena datasets.
The default version has no published Arena rows, or its source alias has not been resolved.
Official vendor API PAYG pricing is summarized first. The table then lists individual provider offerings without treating their minimum as the official price.
The default version has no provider offering with current input or output token prices.
Official prices use only the vendor's configured official Provider and positive standard USD PAYG rates. Third-party offers remain explicitly labeled.
All published versions linked to this unique model. The score columns identify the version used by the current overall ranking.
