MiniMax M3

MiniMaxopen-sourceOpen Source

MiniMax's 1 Jun 2026 open-weight flagship: the first open model to combine frontier agentic coding, native multimodality, and a 1M-token context. Built on MiniMax Sparse Attention (MSA): ~1/20th the per-token compute at 1M context, >9x faster prefill, >15x faster decode. Now third-party verified and holding up well — SWE-bench 80.5% (second among open models, behind only DeepSeek V4 Pro's 80.6%), GPQA Diamond 93.0% (second behind Kimi K3), OSWorld 70.1%, BrowseComp 83.5%, Terminal-Bench 2.1 66.0%. At $0.60/$2.40 it delivers SWE-bench parity with models costing 10x more. Launch-promo pricing was $0.30/$1.20.

Cheaper is left, more capable is up. 2 of 49 priced models are both cheaper and score at least as high. Self-host models are left off the price axis — their cost depends on the hardware you run them on, not on tokens.
