Questions people ask
Is minimax-m3 better than gpt-5.2?
minimax-m3 outperforms gpt-5.2 on 4 of 7 shared benchmarks. See the benchmark comparison above for specifics: minimax-m3 and gpt-5.2 have different strengths across reasoning, coding, math and multimodal tasks.
Which is cheaper, minimax-m3 or gpt-5.2?
minimax-m3 is cheaper. minimax-m3 costs $0.30/$1.20 per 1M input/output tokens, while gpt-5.2 costs $1.75/$14.00.
Can I use minimax-m3 and gpt-5.2 through the same API?
Yes. Requesty provides a single OpenAI-compatible API that routes to both. Change just the "model" parameter to switch between "minimaxi/minimax-m3" and "openai/gpt-5.2", no other code changes needed.
What are the context windows?
minimax-m3 supports up to 1M tokens of context. gpt-5.2 supports up to 400K tokens. Longer context means you can feed larger documents or codebases in a single prompt, though quality often degrades past 128K for most models.
