Minor changes to the name, such as 'M3 Pro' or similar variants, will count for the purpose of this market, as long as the model is generally understood to be Minimax's M3.

The model must be accessible without individual vetting or invitation — free or paid, via API or product. Open, non-selective waitlists count. Closed betas, invite-only access, researcher programs, A/B tests, and anonymous benchmark appearances do not. Country-level bans do not prevent resolution.
