MiniMax models intro, "MiniMax M2.5 and M2.7 Model Retirement Notice": "As we roll out newer models, we’ll be retiring the MiniMax M2.5 and M2.7 model families." Schedule: "October 19, 2026: These models will no longer be available to new users." "November 18, 2026: These models will be retired." Under "Pay-as-you-go API users": "Existing users can continue accessing these models until their retirement on November 18, 2026. Once retired, API requests to these models will no longer work."
The page lists MiniMax-M2.7 in its Language models table.
For M Plan and Token Plan users the notice routes M2.5 and M2.7 requests to M3.1 Flash Preview from October 19, 2026. Those plans are outside this pay-as-you-go offer, and the notice names no pay-as-you-go replacement.

Availability stays available: existing pay-as-you-go users keep access until the announced November 18, 2026 retirement, and the MiniMax pay-as-you-go pricing page still listed the model when this was reviewed (2026-10-14), so no retirement is recorded before then. From October 19, 2026 MiniMax no longer offers it to new users. Later pricing-page listings are shown by the price dates on this offer.

About capability scores (Epoch AI)
Capability scores: Epoch AI, 'Capabilities & benchmarking'. Published online at epoch.ai. Retrieved from 'https://epoch.ai/benchmarks' [online resource], epoch.ai/benchmarks. Accessed 2026-10-31. Licensed CC BY 4.0; values here are rounded to one decimal place and grouped into bands.
The Epoch Capabilities Index (ECI) combines many benchmarks on a scale where Claude 3.5 Sonnet is 130 and GPT-5 is 150. Bands, on the displayed one-decimal score: Frontier 160+, Strong 150–159.9, Capable 140–149.9, Entry below 140. Each score has a 90% range; a range that crosses a band boundary is flagged. Models are not ranked: neighbouring scores often overlap.
A benchmark is not your workload. Epoch's scores mostly reflect runs at the highest reasoning effort, which use more output tokens than default settings. Scores are dated and can shift between Epoch releases. A score belongs to the developer's model; a host listing shows the same model's score, but hosts may serve different versions or quantizations.
How headline rates are chosen
Headline rates use the directory's shared rule: the rate a buyer meets by default, chosen by billing, tier and context dimensions and never by price. Context caps, the bracket starting at zero and short-context variants are labeled; unverified availability is flagged and is not a service guarantee. Batch, off-peak and other variants remain in the details; ambiguous headlines stay unknown.
No currency conversion is performed. Missing cache prices are unknown, not zero. Equal units do not establish equivalent models or service conditions. See the methodology and source register.
