MiniMax M3 released with 1M context, frontier coding and native multimodality
MiniMax released M3, an open-weight model it says is the first to combine frontier coding and agentic performance, a 1M-token context window, and native image and video input. M3 uses MiniMax's new MSA sparse attention architecture, which the company reports cuts per-token compute at 1M context to 1/20 of the previous generation and speeds prefill by more than 9x and decoding by more than 15x. It scores 59.0% on SWE-Bench Pro, 66.0% on Terminal-Bench 2.1 and 74.2% on MCP Atlas, and is available through MiniMax Code, the Token Plan and the API, with weights and a technical report promised within 10 days.
