MiniMax M2.7
MiniMax M2.7 has the lower estimated token cost for this stated workload. Costs use the listed standard API rates.
Updated September 28, 2026. Rank says GLM-5V-Turbo is ahead. Price, access, and your workload can each overturn that. Public scores include evidence status and uncertainty.

GLM-5V-Turbo has the higher public score estimate, 48.87 versus 48.03, but the 90% score intervals overlap. Treat that as a lead, not a settled winner. 2 results are shared. Category rows resting on Estimated evidence or different benchmark sets are marked directional and do not name a winner.
Recommendations appear only when a shared evidence basis or an explicit operating constraint supports the call. Secondary and unsupported use cases stay disclosed below the initial list.

Code generation, repair, and software-engineering tasks
Not enough matched evidence
GLM-5V-Turbo is scored on Estimated evidence for coding, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like.
Tool use, computer use, and multi-step task completion
Not enough matched evidence
GLM-5V-Turbo is not ranked on the public lane for agentic, so no winner is named for agentic.

The page does not recommend a cost winner because at least one model cannot fit the stated workload in one request. GLM-5V-Turbo does not fit this workload in one request. MiniMax M2.7 does not fit this workload in one request. GLM-5V-Turbo has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. MiniMax M2.7 has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate.
Choose a job from the LLM Selector's task catalog to see the category row it rests on, under the same basis rules as the table below. A directional row stays directional; choosing a job never creates a winner.
The same task catalog as the LLM Selector. Each job names the evidence surface it rests on; nothing here adds a new score.
Directional only · BenchAlign v5.7
MiniMax M2.7 scores higher, but at least one score rests on Estimated evidence or a different benchmark set. Directional only, no winner.
Coding scores combine specific tasks and setups. Match the editor, harness, and effort to your workflow.
Shared results can support a head-to-head reading. Results present for only one model describe coverage, not superiority.
3 categories rest on Estimated evidence or different evidence sets. Those rows remain visible for coverage context but do not name a winner.
Only shared public evidence is shown. Sparse evidence stays a ruled list rather than being closed into a radar shape.
A shared-evidence shape is not available.
BenchLM does not draw a radar or infer missing axes when the matched evidence is too sparse.
Each row shows the public-lane category score for both models: the BenchAlign v5.7 lane for agentic, coding, and knowledge, and the weighted public rows elsewhere, with the same rank each model page reports. A row is like-for-like only when both scores rest on Supported evidence or the same weighted set. Directional and not-comparable rows remain visible, but they never receive a winner.

Ranks count the models scored in each category’s lane, so the agentic, coding, and knowledge denominators (BenchAlign v5.7) differ from the provisional-lane categories. Unranked scores sit on the provisional lane’s scale but never name a winner. Like-for-like rows within 0.5 points read as a practical tie.
Three fixed token mixes turn per-token rates into comparable decisions. Each scenario states context fit and whether cached input had to fall back to the published list-input rate.

GLM-5V-Turbo has the higher public score estimate, 48.87 versus 48.03, but the 90% score intervals overlap. The higher estimate is not a decisive winner because the uncertainty ranges overlap.
MiniMax M2.7 scores higher for coding on the public lane, 35.9 to 34.1. GLM-5V-Turbo is scored on Estimated evidence for coding, so the reading is directional rather than like-for-like. BenchLM does not name a winner for coding from a directional reading; read the shared benchmark rows directly and test the models on the same task set.
GLM-5V-Turbo is not ranked on the public lane for agentic tasks, so no winner is named for agentic tasks.
For the stated presets, chat costs $0.0032 on GLM-5V-Turbo and $0.0009 on MiniMax M2.7; repository review costs $0.072 and $0.0186; the cache-heavy agent loop costs $0.304 and $0.078. GLM-5V-Turbo does not fit this workload in one request. MiniMax M2.7 does not fit this workload in one request. GLM-5V-Turbo has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate. MiniMax M2.7 has no published cached-input rate, so cached tokens use its listed input rate.
Both models list the same context window, 200K.
