Why high: an exact fingerprint shared with 8 models.

Evidence
  • ✓ exact tokenizer signature shared with 8 models

Identity statement

MiniMax: MiniMax M1 is MiniMax's model, and its measured tokenizer sits in MiniMax's own signature group alongside its sibling models. Measured models from Undisclosed (stealth) carry the same vocabulary, which reads as reuse of MiniMax's tokenizer line and questions nobody's authorship; they are listed under "Shares this fingerprint" below.

The measured fingerprint

What each test string cost this model, in tokens

We sent MiniMax: MiniMax M1 fifty short pieces of text and recorded what each one cost it in tokens. The bars below are those costs. Two models built on the same tokenizer produce the same bars; a model built on a different one produces a different set, which is what makes this a fingerprint.

What the catalogue claims about this model

MiniMax-M1 is a large-scale, open-weight reasoning model designed for extended context and high-efficiency inference. It leverages a hybrid Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture paired with a custom "lightning attention" mechanism, allowing it...
