MiniMax-M2.5

Provided by Minimax
Pay-as-you-go

MiniMax-M2.5 is a SOTA large language model designed for real-world productivity. Trained in a diverse range of complex real-world digital working environments, M2.5 builds upon the coding expertise of M2.1 to extend into general office work, reaching fluency in generating and operating Word, Excel, and Powerpoint files, context switching between diverse software environments, and working across different agent and human teams. Scoring 80.2% on SWE-Bench Verified, 51.3% on Multi-SWE-Bench, and 76.3% on BrowseComp, M2.5 is also more token efficient than previous generations, having been trained to optimize its actions and output through planning.

Capabilities & compatibility

Unconfirmed capabilities stay "Unknown," no guesses

Available:

Tool calling

MiniMax-M2.5 supports function and tool calls.

EX Send a tools definition; the response returns tool_calls to execute and feed results back.
Available:

Structured output

MiniMax-M2.5 can produce JSON-formatted output on demand.

EX response_format: { type: "json_schema" } forces valid JSON output.
Available:

Streaming

MiniMax-M2.5 supports streamed responses.

EX stream: true streams tokens incrementally, so chat UIs render as they arrive.
Available:

Prompt caching

MiniMax-M2.5 supports prompt caching under supported routing conditions.

EX Keep the system prompt and tool definitions at the start of the request; repeated prefixes are automatically billed at the cache-read rate.
Available:

OpenAI SDK

Call MiniMax-M2.5 through MixRoute's OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

EX Change base_url to https://api.mixroute.ai/v1; everything else follows the OpenAI style.

FAQ

MiniMax-M2.5 sits alongside gpt-5.4-nano, gpt-5.3-codex, glm-4-0520 in the catalog. Compare them on the dimensions that change your bill and your users’ experience: task quality on your own prompts, latency at your concurrency, context and output limits, and cost per completed task rather than per token.
