Country refers to the organization, not inference or data-residency location.

Selected model

MiniMax-M2.5 · MiniMax-M2.5

Verified standard direct API legacy-model price; highspeed output price is $2.40 and is excluded.

204,800 (provider-direct API); checkpoint config separately lists 196,608 · Context window

Scope and limitations

• Direct API documentation explicitly limits M2.5 to text and tool-call content, with no image/video input.
• Maximum output cap was not specified for M2.5 in inspected primary docs; do not copy the 128k cap published for M2.
• Provider API context is 204,800; downloaded checkpoint config says 196,608. Keep deployment scope visible.
• Thinking tokens count toward requested generation limits.
• Current LICENSE-MODEL grants use and modification subject to attribution, redistribution notices and a prohibited-use policy. It is a custom model license, not the unmodified MIT license; the code license is separate.
