On February 26, 2026, Minimax made an announcement through its official WeChat account, revealing an upgrade to the MiniMax Agent Expert feature. The new iteration, Expert 2.0, is designed to significantly elevate the experience of creating expert Agents. Now, users can effortlessly outline task objectives or specify capability requirements using natural language. In response, the Agent will autonomously handle the organization of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), orchestrate tools, and configure capabilities. Concurrently, Minimax introduced MaxClaw, a cloud-based AI assistant constructed on the foundation of OpenClaw. This innovative assistant is seamlessly integrated into the MiniMax Agent web portal, allowing users to access it without the necessity of setting up their own servers or obtaining API keys. Moreover, even users with basic subscriptions can indulge in this functionality.
