Momentum
MiniMax-M3 is an open-weight multimodal language model released by MiniMax on June 1, 2026. It is built on a Mixture-of-Experts architecture with approximately 428 billion total parameters and approximately 23 billion active parameters per forward pass. Its core architectural innovation is MiniMax Sparse Attention (MSA), which replaces standard quadratic attention to enable a 1-million-token context window at drastically reduced compute cost. M3 is the first open-weight model to simultaneously deliver frontier-level coding, a 1M-token context window, and native multimodality (text, image, video).
