Our take
Written Aug 2, 2026MiniMax M2-her is a proprietary text-only model with a 65,536-token request limit, released in early 2026. It is a narrow, mid-tier hosted option with no measured quality data and only two identically priced providers.
Pick this only when you specifically need a 65-thousand-token proprietary text model, or if you are already committed to the MiniMax ecosystem and want native integration. Skip it if you need verified quality scores, faster throughput, price competition between hosts, or any image, audio or video input.
The case for it
- 65,536-token request limit handles roughly 50-page documents.
- Two current hosted offers, both from established providers.
The case against it
- No benchmark scores recorded; performance is entirely unverified.
- 28 tokens per second on the only measured host — no faster option available.
- Only two tracked offers, identically priced, so there is no price competition.
How good is it?
We hold no score for this model.
We look for every model we track on every board we watch, and none of them has turned up MiniMax M2-her — so there is no intelligence, coding, agentic or writing score to show you, not a low one, none.
Or rent it from someone else
Why this differs from the header. The strip above quotes Minimax's own list price. This is the cheapest live offer at the widest standard context we hold, whoever is serving it — a reseller undercutting a lab is ordinary commerce, not an error.

Across the 2 listings we hold: 1 say they do not train on prompts, 0 say they do and 1 do not say. 0 appear in the zero-retention registry we check; the rest are unknown to us rather than confirmed either way.
What each host's API supports
