MiniMax's Hailuo 2.3 series elevates cinematic AI video gen with 4K T2V/I2V, hyper-realistic physics/motion, extended clips, and advanced character consistency.

[Core Function] Hailuo 2.3 Fast I2V is a high-speed, cost-effective image-to-video generation model. [Strengths] It excels at generating videos from images much faster and at roughly 50% lower cost than the standard 2.3 model, while still maintaining the 2.3 architecture's strength in human motion. [Best For] Highly recommended for: rapid prototyping, batch social media creation, and cost-sensitive video generation pipelines. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model for text-to-video (it only accepts image inputs). Do NOT use when absolute maximum visual fidelity is the primary requirement. [Routing] Choose this model when the user emphasizes 'fast', 'quick', or 'cost-effective' image-to-video generation. For maximum quality, use the standard Hailuo 2.3 I2V.

[Core Function] Hailuo 2.3 I2V is a flagship image-to-video generation model optimized for character animation. [Strengths] It excels at animating human characters from a single image, maintaining consistent facial features, producing natural micro-expressions, and handling stylized artwork seamlessly. [Best For] Highly recommended for: animating character concept art, bringing portraits to life, and creating stylized/anime motion sequences. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model for last-frame conditioning (it does not support FL2V). Do NOT use if you need 1080p resolution for 10 seconds (1080p is capped at 6s). [Routing] Use this model by default for high-quality image-to-video tasks involving people or art. For physical realism or 10s at 1080p, route to Hailuo 02 I2V. For cost-effective/faster generation, route to Hailuo 2.3 Fast I2V.

[Core Function] Hailuo 2.3 T2V is a flagship text-to-video generation model optimized for human performance and stylization. [Strengths] It excels at capturing intricate human motion, nuanced facial micro-expressions, prompt adherence, and applying highly stylized aesthetics (e.g., anime, ink wash, game CG) to video. [Best For] Highly recommended for: character-driven storytelling, close-up emotional shots, stylized artistic videos, and dialogue scenes. [Limitations] Do NOT use this model if you need native 1080p resolution for 10 full seconds (1080p is capped at 6 seconds; generating 10s forces 768p resolution). [Routing] Use this model by default for text-to-video requests involving humans, faces, or specific art styles. If the user requires strict physical realism/world dynamics or native 1080p for 10 seconds, route to Hailuo 02 T2V instead.
