Hailuo 3.0
MiniMax's flagship video model: native 2K at 24fps with synced audio in the same pass.
About
Hailuo 3.0, marketed as MiniMax H3, is MiniMax's flagship video model, unveiled at WAIC 2026 and released publicly on July 31, 2026. It produces native 2K video at 24 frames per second in clips of 5 to 15 seconds, with synchronized audio generated in the same pass as the picture.
Its omni-reference system accepts text, image, video, and audio context in a single generation, so a character or style reference carries through the clip. Hailuo 2.3 remains available for stylized work like anime and ink wash, where it holds strong independent scores. Pricing is credit-based through Hailuo AI.

Provider-reported unless a source says otherwise. Benchmarks are marketing-adjacent by nature — treat them as directional.
Use cases
