What is MiniMax M2?

MiniMax M2 represents a revolutionary open-source foundational model specifically designed for agent-driven applications and coding endeavors, striking a remarkable balance between efficiency, speed, and cost-effectiveness. It excels within comprehensive development ecosystems, skillfully handling programming assignments, utilizing various tools, and executing complex multi-step operations, all while seamlessly integrating with Python and delivering impressive inference speeds estimated at around 100 tokens per second, coupled with competitive API pricing at roughly 8% of comparable proprietary models. Additionally, the model features a "Lightning Mode" for rapid and efficient agent actions and a "Pro Mode" tailored for in-depth full-stack development, report generation, and management of web-based tools; its completely open-source weights facilitate local deployment through vLLM or SGLang. What sets MiniMax M2 apart is its readiness for production environments, enabling agents to independently carry out tasks such as data analysis, software development, tool integration, and executing complex multi-step logic in real-world organizational settings. Furthermore, with its cutting-edge capabilities, this model is positioned to transform how developers tackle intricate programming challenges and enhances productivity across various domains.

What is GLM-5?

GLM-5 is Z.ai’s most advanced open-source model to date, purpose-built for complex systems engineering, long-horizon planning, and autonomous agent workflows. Building on the foundation of GLM-4.5, it dramatically scales both total parameters and pre-training data while increasing active parameter efficiency. The integration of DeepSeek Sparse Attention allows GLM-5 to maintain strong long-context reasoning capabilities while reducing deployment costs. To improve post-training performance, Z.ai developed slime, an asynchronous reinforcement learning infrastructure that significantly boosts training throughput and iteration speed. As a result, GLM-5 achieves top-tier performance among open-source models across reasoning, coding, and general agent benchmarks. It demonstrates exceptional strength in long-term operational simulations, including leading results on Vending Bench 2, where it manages a year-long simulated business with strong financial outcomes. In coding evaluations such as SWE-bench and Terminal-Bench 2.0, GLM-5 delivers competitive results that narrow the gap with proprietary frontier systems. The model is fully open-sourced under the MIT License and available through Hugging Face, ModelScope, and Z.ai’s developer platforms. Developers can deploy GLM-5 locally using inference frameworks like vLLM and SGLang, including support for non-NVIDIA hardware through optimization and quantization techniques. Through Z.ai, users can access both Chat Mode for fast interactions and Agent Mode for tool-augmented, multi-step task execution. GLM-5 also enables structured document generation, producing ready-to-use .docx, .pdf, and .xlsx files for business and academic workflows. With compatibility across coding agents and cross-application automation frameworks, GLM-5 moves foundation models from conversational assistants toward full-scale work engines.
