All leaderboardsMiniMax M2.5: common questions
How much does MiniMax M2.5 cost per 1M tokens?
MiniMax M2.5 is listed at $0.27 per 1M input tokens and $0.95 per 1M output tokens as of 6 November 2026 across 6 providers. Prices come from the OpenRouter catalogue and re-observe on every refresh. For 1,000 requests using 2,000 input and 500 output tokens each, the listed rates imply $1.02 total (2M input + 0.5M output). This excludes caching, batch discounts, prompt-length tiers, tool charges and retries; verify the chosen endpoint's rate and limits before budgeting.
What is the context window of MiniMax M2.5?
MiniMax M2.5 has a published context window of 205K tokens (204,800). The snapshot lists a 32,768 token catalogue-declared route output cap. OpenRouter catalogue or provider-endpoint declaration. Limits can vary by provider and prompt length; a model-wide maximum has not been independently verified. The providers table lists each endpoint's context limit.
Is MiniMax M2.5 open-weight?
Restricted license (modified-mit). Downloadable weights use a model-specific or use-restricted license. Review the linked license before use, redistribution, or commercial deployment. The repository is MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5 on Hugging Face.
Which API providers serve MiniMax M2.5?
