If you find that the results are different each time and logically coherent, you can be confident that the API is being called correctly. You can also check the [API usage management platform](https://platform.deepseek.com/usage) to see if the calls were successful (though it may take a few minutes to show up).
## More Text Generation Model Options
In addition to DeepSeek, you can also try other large language models. Since most models provide an **OpenAI-compatible API**, switching is very simple — you only need to change the API Key, base URL, and model name.
### MiniMax Integration
::: details Learn More: What is MiniMax?
**MiniMax** is a Chinese AI company dedicated to general artificial intelligence research. MiniMax has developed its own MiniMax-M2.5 series of large language models, which perform well in multiple benchmarks with excellent cost-effectiveness.
**Key Features of MiniMax-M2.5 Series:**
- **Ultra-long context**: Supports a 204,800-token context window, suitable for processing long documents and multi-turn conversations
- **Cost-effective**: Input $0.3/M tokens, Output $1.2/M tokens, extremely competitive pricing
- **OpenAI-compatible API**: Can be called directly using the OpenAI SDK, no need to learn a new API format
- **Two available models**:
- `MiniMax-M2.5`: Flagship model for complex tasks
- `MiniMax-M2.5-highspeed`: High-speed version with same performance but faster response
:::
The integration process is the same as DeepSeek, just three steps:
1. Go to [MiniMax Platform](https://platform.minimax.io/) to register and create an API Key
2. Find the API call examples in MiniMax documentation
3. Paste the API Key + example into your AI IDE
Since MiniMax provides an OpenAI-compatible API, you can copy the following curl example along with your API Key and send it to your AI IDE for integration:
```bash
curl https://api.minimax.io/v1/chat/completions \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer ${MINIMAX_API_KEY}" \
-d '{
"model": "MiniMax-M2.5",
"messages": [
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}
],
"stream": false
}'
```
::: tip ✅ Tip
MiniMax's API format is almost identical to DeepSeek (both are OpenAI-compatible), so if you've already successfully integrated DeepSeek, switching to MiniMax only requires changing three things:
1. **Base URL**: Change to `https://api.minimax.io/v1`
2. **API Key**: Use your MiniMax API Key
3. **Model name**: Change to `MiniMax-M2.5` or `MiniMax-M2.5-highspeed`
For more details, refer to the [MiniMax OpenAI Compatible API Documentation](https://platform.minimax.io/docs/api-reference/text-openai-api).
