MiniMax M3 is now available on Vercel AI Gateway. M3 is MiniMax's first model with a 1M-token context window and native multimodality, built around MiniMax Sparse Attention (MSA).
M3 improves on software engineering, terminal-based tool use, and agentic web browsing, and is tuned for multi-turn collaboration.
To use MiniMax M3, set model to minimax/minimax-m3
in the AI SDK. Pass an image alongside a prompt to use M3's multimodal input:
