MiniMax M3.1 Flash is Now Generally Available

MiniMax M3.1 Flash brings stronger agentic, coding and cybersecurity capabilities with a 1M-token context window. Compared with the previous generation, it delivers nearly 3× faster online inference and 70% lower overall usage cost on agentic tasks.

Try a real task with the GA release

Bring your prompt and the MiniMax-M3.1-Flash model-selection request into MiniMax Code. Confirm the selected model and your account access, and provide any source files required inside the app.

Real Tasks. Documented Results.

Four examples from the official M3.1 Flash integration guide. Prompts are shortened for reuse; tasks that need files require you to provide those inputs in MiniMax Code.

English-localized Flowdesk interface from the documented support-ticket performance case

Flowdesk support-ticket optimization: the guide includes the repaired interface and a separate three-run performance comparison using the same 8,000 records. This is one documented case, not a general speed guarantee.

From Investigation to Working Outputs

Use MiniMax Code as the working environment for the model's coding, research and visual reasoning capabilities. Available tools and your source materials shape the result.

Engineering

Diagnose, change, and verify

Read a codebase, trace a failure, implement a focused fix, and check regressions. The official integration guide pairs real GitHub issue work with Flowdesk browser profiling, so the emphasis is on evidence from tests and measurements—not only plausible code.

Research

Make assumptions and sources inspectable

Break down a company or industry question into sources, calculations and uncertainty. The Vera Rubin example separates supply-chain layers and evidence status; the financial workbooks distinguish historical data, assumptions and formula-driven estimates.

Visual creation

Turn visual references into interactive code

Use images and video as inputs for analysis, then work with code and tools on the next step. In the Qinian Hall case from the guide, a procedural Three.js model with orbit, zoom and layered roof controls is built from reference photos.

How to Start with M3.1 Flash

Four steps to begin with the generally available release.

  1. Step.01

    Confirm account and model availability

    This page requests MiniMax-M3.1-Flash when opening MiniMax Code. Confirm the selected model and its availability to your account; the link does not grant access, and selection depends on the app version and model availability.

  2. Step.02

    Choose an access path

    Use MiniMax Code for hands-on work, subscribe to M Plan, or integrate through the MiniMax developer platform. Pick the path that matches your workflow; you can switch later, and the same model runs in all three environments.

  3. Step.03

    Supply the real task materials

    For coding, provide the repository, reproduction steps and acceptance criteria. For research, provide source data and dates. For visual analysis, attach the original images or video. The examples on this page are references: their files are not transferred by the CTA.

    Step 03 workflow illustration: supplying task description, repository, source data and visual inputs
  4. Step.04

    Verify before you rely on the result

    Test code and browser interactions, review spreadsheet formulas and sources, and inspect visual results. The generational gains of M3.1 Flash improve task completion quality and cost efficiency, but specific outcomes still depend on task complexity, inputs and verification.
