If you've used an AI assistant, you've probably had this feeling: when one AI does too many things at once, it either loses track of some tasks or gets stuck in a loop on a particular step.

MiniMax clearly saw this problem. On May 13, they officially announced a comprehensive upgrade of their Agent product and gave it a new name — Mavis.

The highlight of this update is a new feature called Agent Teams: you can now summon a group of AI agents with different roles and responsibilities, allowing them to work in parallel and fulfill their respective duties. In simple terms, instead of having one AI handle everything, it's now a team of AIs working together. With clear role divisions and focused tasks, overall efficiency naturally improves.

Why do this? The official answer is that a single Agent has obvious shortcomings in practical use: lack of collaboration ability, overly scattered functions, and high usage costs... these pain points accumulated over time have driven the emergence of multi-agent collaboration.

In addition to the functional upgrades, the subscription system has also been integrated. Previously, you might have needed to buy several packages to get all the required features, but now a single subscription unlocks all benefits, with quotas shared across devices, making it much more convenient to use.

For regular users, you can directly experience the professional features after logging in, without worrying about whether they are sufficient or not.

From a single AI to an AI team, Mavis's upgrade direction, in a way, is also answering a bigger question: when individual efforts hit a bottleneck, collaboration may be the way for AI to truly unlock its potential.
