AI Model Comparison
Side-by-side comparison of pricing, context window, benchmarks, capabilities, and license. Every figure comes from the developer's own pages, last checked on ; each model's page lists its sources. A figure we could not source shows as a dash.
Model A — MiniMax
MiniMax-M3.1-Flash is a native multimodal mixture-of-experts model from MiniMax, generally available from October 19, 2026, aimed at agentic tasks, coding, computer use and cybersecurity. It takes text, image and video input, returns text, and has a context window of up to 1M tokens.
Model B — Tencent
Hy4 is Tencent's latest-generation large language model, launched on November 4, 2026 after the Hy4 Preview. It is the first in the line with visual understanding and computer use; Tencent says it will publish the weights and a system card later.

Bold green values indicate the winner on that dimension where comparison is meaningful (lower price wins; bigger context wins; more open license wins; newer date wins). Prices are the ones each developer lists today; a model it no longer prices has none.
