Side-by-side benchmark comparison across agentic, coding, multimodal, knowledge, reasoning, and math workflows.
o1-pro is clearly ahead on the aggregate, 45 to 32. The gap is large enough that you do not need to squint at the spreadsheet to see the difference.
o1-pro's sharpest advantage is in mathematics, where it averages 86 against 43.3. The single biggest benchmark swing on the page is AIME 2024, 86 to 32. Ministral 3 8B does hit back in multilingual, so the answer changes if that is the part of the workload you care about most.
o1-pro is also the more expensive model on tokens at $150.00 input / $600.00 output per 1M tokens, versus $0.00 input / $0.00 output per 1M tokens for Ministral 3 8B. That is roughly Infinityx on output cost alone. o1-pro is the reasoning model in the pair, while Ministral 3 8B 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. o1-pro gives you the larger context window at 200K, compared with 128K for Ministral 3 8B.
Pick o1-pro if you want the stronger benchmark profile. Ministral 3 8B only becomes the better choice if multilingual is the priority or you want the cheaper token bill.
