MiniMax M3.1 Flash
Claude Haiku 5.5MiniMax-M3.1-Flash is MiniMax's latest flagship model, aimed at office automation, software engineering, visual reasoning, and professional analytics. It combines multi-step task execution with front-end and presentation-creation capabilities, supporting workflows that transform information and visual references into tangible deliverables.
Claude Haiku 5.5 is Anthropic’s next-generation product, designed for high-throughput, cost-sensitive tasks. It can reliably handle fast and repetitive workloads such as summarization, context compression, database queries, and classification requests. It is also well suited to be used as a sub-agent model in programming workflows alongside Opus 5.5 and Sonnet 5.5.
