GPT-5.1 vs MiniMax M2.7

Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.

GPT-5.1 has the cleaner overall profile here, landing at 60 versus 57. It is a real lead, but still close enough that category-level strengths matter more than the headline number.

GPT-5.1's sharpest advantage is in coding, where it averages 68 against 56.2.

GPT-5.1 is also the more expensive model on tokens at $1.50 input / $6.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.30 input / $1.20 output per 1M tokens for MiniMax M2.7. That is roughly 5.0x on output cost alone. GPT-5.1 is the reasoning model in the pair, while MiniMax M2.7 is not. That usually helps on harder chain-of-thought-heavy tests, but it can also mean more latency and more token spend in real use.

Quick Verdict

Pick GPT-5.1 if you want the stronger benchmark profile. MiniMax M2.7 only becomes the better choice if you want the cheaper token bill or you would rather avoid the extra latency and token burn of a reasoning model.
