MiniMax releases M3.1 Flash for coding and computer tasks
MiniMax says M3.1 Flash is available through its API, M Plan and MiniMax Code at $0.15 per million input tokens and $0.60 per million output tokens. It reports faster inference and stronger benchmark results than its predecessor, but those claims are vendor tests. Model weights are promised for later, so the current release is not yet an open-weight download.
