Gemini 3 Flash Preview is a high speed, high value thinking model designed for agentic workflows, multi turn chat, and coding assistance. It delivers near Pro level reasoning and tool use performance with substantially lower latency than larger Gemini variants, making it well suited for interactive development, long running agent loops, and collaborative coding tasks. Compared to Gemini 2.5 Flash, it provides broad quality improvements across reasoning, multimodal understanding, and reliability. The model supports a 1M token context window and multimodal inputs including text, images, audio, video, and PDFs, with text output. It includes configurable reasoning via thinking levels (minimal, low, medium, high), structured output, tool use, and automatic context caching. Gemini 3 Flash Preview is optimized for users who want strong reasoning and agentic behavior without the cost or latency of full scale frontier models.

Grok 4.1 Fast is xAI's best agentic tool calling model that shines in real-world use cases like customer support and deep research. 2M context window. Reasoning can be enabled/disabled using the `reasoning` `enabled` parameter in the API. [Learn more in our docs](https://openrouter.ai/docs/use-cases/reasoning-tokens#controlling-reasoning-tokens)

Gemini 2.5 Pro is Google’s state-of-the-art AI model designed for advanced reasoning, coding, mathematics, and scientific tasks.

MiniMax-M2.1 is a lightweight, state-of-the-art large language model optimized for coding, agentic workflows, and modern application development. With only 10 billion activated parameters, it delivers a major jump in real-world capability while maintaining exceptional latency, scalability, and cost efficiency. Compared to its predecessor, M2.1 delivers cleaner, more concise outputs and faster perceived response times. It shows leading multilingual coding performance across major systems and application languages, achieving 49.4% on Multi-SWE-Bench and 72.5% on SWE-Bench Multilingual, and serves as a versatile agent “brain” for IDEs, coding tools, and general-purpose assistance. To avoid degrading this model's performance, MiniMax highly recommends preserving reasoning between turns.

gpt-oss-120b is an open-weight, 117B-parameter Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) language model from OpenAI designed for high-reasoning, agentic, and general-purpose production use cases. It activates 5.1B parameters per forward pass and is optimized to run on a single H100 GPU with native MXFP4 quantization. The model supports configurable reasoning depth, full chain-of-thought access, and native tool use, including function calling, browsing, and structured output generation.

MiMo-V2-Flash is an open-source foundation language model developed by Xiaomi. It is a Mixture-of-Experts model with 309B total parameters and 15B active parameters, adopting hybrid attention architecture. MiMo-V2-Flash supports a hybrid-thinking toggle and a 256K context window, and excels at reasoning, coding, and agent scenarios. On SWE-bench Verified and SWE-bench Multilingual, MiMo-V2-Flash ranks as the top #1 open-source model globally, delivering performance comparable to Claude Sonnet 4.5 while costing only about 3.5% as much. Users can control the reasoning behaviour with the `reasoning` `enabled` boolean.
