MiniMax models on Vertex AI offer fully managed and serverless models as APIs. To use a MiniMax model on Vertex AI, send a request directly to the Vertex AI API endpoint. Because MiniMax models use a managed API, there's no need to provision or manage infrastructure.
You can stream your responses to reduce the end-user latency perception. A streamed response uses server-sent events (SSE) to incrementally stream the response.
Available MiniMax models
The following models are available from MiniMax to use in Vertex AI. To access a MiniMax model, go to its Model Garden model card.
MiniMax M2
MiniMax M2 is a model from MiniMax that's designed for agentic and code-related tasks. It is built for end-to-end development workflows and has strong capabilities in planning and executing complex tool-calling tasks. The model is optimized to provide a balance of performance, cost, and inference speed.

To learn how to make streaming and non-streaming calls to MiniMax models, see Call open model APIs.
MiniMax model region availability and quotas
For MiniMax models, a quota applies for each region where the model is available. The quota is specified in queries per minute (QPM).
| Model | Region | Quotas | Context length |
|---|---|---|---|
| MiniMax M2 | |||
global endpoint |
|
196,608 |
If you want to increase any of your quotas for Generative AI on Vertex AI, you can use the Google Cloud console to request a quota increase. To learn more about quotas, see the Cloud Quotas overview.
