MiniMax
Open-weight multimodal models built for long agent runs.
MiniMax publishes open weights for its M-series models, which are aimed at long-horizon agentic work and coding. The current M3 takes text, images and video with a million-token context, and the older M2 models are still around and cheaper. A solid middle option: more capable than the tiny Flash models, far cheaper than a frontier API, and you can host it yourself if you need to.
