Everything you need to know about these AI models, including capabilities, performance, pricing, and technical details.
MiniMax / MiniMax M3.1 Flash
lightDescription
MiniMax's fast, low-cost model for agent tasks, coding, computer use, and security work. MiniMax reports nearly three times faster inference, 70% lower agent-task cost, 73.7% on DeepSWE v1.1, and first place among Chinese models on OSWorld V2 and Agents' Last Exam. It reads text and images across a very large context, reasons before answering, and is free to use on Aymo.
OpenAI / GPT-5 Nano
lightDescription
OpenAI's smallest and cheapest GPT-5 model, built for speed above all. GPT-5 Nano is made for summarisation, classification, and other well-defined tasks that run at high volume. It reads text and images, with adjustable reasoning effort. Reasoning depth is shallow by design and its knowledge is dated. The trade is cost: it is among the cheapest models in the catalog.

Why Use MiniMax M3.1 Flash and GPT-5 Nano?
Aymo gives you more than access to individual models—it provides a complete multi-model AI workspace designed for productivity.
MiniMax / MiniMax M3.1 Flash
lightStrong Coding For Flash
MiniMax reports 73.7% on DeepSWE v1.1, a software engineering test, and 82% on CyberGym, a security test, at $0.15 per million input tokens.
Top Chinese Agent Scores
MiniMax reports 61.7 on OSWorld V2 and 29.6 on Agents' Last Exam, first among Chinese models on both tests. It reasons before answering on Aymo.
Room For Long Inputs
A very large context window on Aymo, enough for long documents, chat histories, or a full codebase in one request, so you don't need to split the work.
Built For Agent Work
MiniMax reports 76.2 on BankerToolBench and lists agent tasks, coding, computer use, and cybersecurity as the main areas it built M3.1 Flash for.
Nearly 3x Faster
MiniMax reports nearly three times faster inference and 70% lower agent-task cost than its previous model. It has no native web search, so current data comes through connected tools.
Text And Image Input
Reads text and images on Aymo, so you can send screenshots, charts, or diagrams with your prompt and get answers about what they show.
OpenAI / GPT-5 Nano
lightCoding Sub-Tasks
Suited to small, well-scoped coding jobs and to acting as a fast sub-agent inside a larger system, rather than tackling whole problems. Reasoning depth is limited, so keep the scope tight.
Adjustable Reasoning Effort
Reasoning effort runs from minimal through low, medium, and high. Even at higher effort it is a shallow reasoner by design, so it suits speed-sensitive work rather than hard multi-step problems.
Room For Long Documents
A large context window, enough to summarise long reports or classify big batches of text in a single pass without splitting the input into separate requests.
Summarisation And Classification
OpenAI names summarisation and classification as its core uses. Built to process high volumes of text quickly and cheaply rather than to produce polished long-form writing.
Analysis On Older Knowledge
Its training data is dated by current standards, so it is fine for processing text you supply but weaker on recent events, which need live sources rather than the model's own knowledge.
Text And Image Input
Reads text and images, so you can send screenshots or scanned pages alongside your prompt. Output is text only. OpenAI states audio and video are not supported.
