Overview
MiniMax is a Chinese artificial intelligence company founded in Shanghai in 2021 by former SenseTime researchers, and one of the country's most commercially aggressive model developers. It builds text, speech, image and video foundation models in house and pushes them straight into consumer products, including the Hailuo video generator and the Talkie and Xingye companion applications that have found large audiences inside and outside China. The company also sells API access to enterprises, released the open-weight M-series reasoning models, and listed in Hong Kong in 2025.
