Minimax has been great for super high speed web/js/ts related work. It compares in my experience to Claude Sonnet, and at times gets stuff similar to Opus.
Design wise it produces some of the most beautiful AI generated page I've seen.
GLM-4.7 like a mix of Sonnet 4.5 and GPT-5 (the first version not the later ones). It has deep deep knowledge, but it's often just not as good in execution.
They're very cheap to try out, so you should see how your mileage varies.
Ofcourse for the hardest possible tasks that GPT 5.2 only approaches, they're not up to scratch. And for the hard-ish tasks in C++ for example that Opus 4.5 tackles Minimax feels closer, but just doesn't "grok" the problem space good enough.
