About this model

MiniMax-M3 is MiniMax's flagship model supporting up to 1M tokens of context (guaranteed minimum 512K), with text, image, and video input.

Best suited for

Long-context conversations (up to 1M tokens)
Reasoning and engineering workflows
Multimodal (text/image/video) tasks
General-purpose AI applications

Capabilities

Vision

Accepts images alongside text in the same message.

Files

Accepts file attachments — PDFs, transcripts, spreadsheets.

Tools

Native function calling, so agents can invoke your endpoints.

System prompt

Honours a dedicated system role, separate from the user turn.

Supported parameters

max_tokensMax Tokens Limit

Specifies the maximum number of text units (tokens) allowed in a response, limiting its length.

tools

Lists tool definitions or capabilities available to the model.

tool_choice

Decides whether to use tools or just the model for generating responses.

response_type

Defines the format or type of the generated response.

creativity_level

Controls randomness (temperature). Higher values (0.8) make output more random, lower values (0.2) more focused and deterministic.

log_probabilityLog Probabilities

Whether to return log probabilities of the output tokens.

probability_cutoff

Nucleus sampling parameter. The model considers tokens with top_p probability mass.

Use this model

OpenAI-SDK compatible, with gateway fallback and routing across providers.
