Hailuo AI Video Generator, Powered by MiniMax Hailuo 2.3

Editly loads MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 as the default model in its video tool, so a prompt — or a single still image — becomes a finished clip without leaving this site. Choose 6 or 10 seconds, 768P or 1080P, and the generate button shows what the run costs in credits before you press it. Hailuo 2.3 Fast and Hailuo 02 Pro sit one click away in the same model picker.

How to Use the Hailuo AI Video Generator

  1. 01

    Pick your Hailuo model

    Open the AI video tool. Hailuo 2.3 is already selected, because it is the first video model in the picker. Switch to Hailuo 2.3 Fast when you are drafting and want the cheaper run, or to Hailuo Pro when you want the older Hailuo 02 Pro rendering.

  2. 02

    Write a prompt, or drop in a source image

    The prompt box accepts up to 5,000 characters on both Hailuo 2.3 models and 1,500 on Hailuo Pro. Leave Source image empty and the model runs text to video; upload one still under 10 MB and the same model switches to image to video.

  3. 03

    Set duration and resolution, then generate

    Duration is 6s or 10s and resolution is 768P or 1080P. The credit figure on the button updates as you change them, and the finished clip appears in your creations feed alongside every earlier run.

Which Hailuo Model Should You Run?

All three take a prompt or one source image. What separates them is the MiniMax generation behind them, how much control you get, and what a run costs in credits.

What the Hailuo AI Video Generator Does Well

MiniMax shipped Hailuo 2.3 on 28 October 2025 aimed squarely at the parts of AI video that usually fall apart: faces, bodies in motion, and anything that is not photoreal.

Faces that keep performing

MiniMax built the 2.3 release around dynamic expression. Micro-expressions and facial performance carry through a shot instead of resetting frame to frame, which is the difference between a portrait that acts and a portrait that merely moves.

Motion that answers the prompt

MiniMax describes 2.3 as optimising the model’s response to motion commands, with better physics understanding for complex character movement — dance, choreography, sport. It builds on Hailuo 02, whose Noise-aware Compute Redistribution architecture MiniMax credits with a 2.5x gain in training and inference efficiency.

Anime and ink wash, not only photoreal

MiniMax names anime, illustration, ink wash painting and game CG among the styles Hailuo 2.3 handles. Holding one look across an entire clip is the hard part of stylised video, and it is where the 2.3 line was explicitly tuned.

A single still is enough to start

Put one frame in the Source image field and the Hailuo AI video generator flips to image to video on the same model, with the same duration and resolution choices. Handy when you already have a product shot or a character design and just need it to move.

Hailuo 02, Hailuo 2.3 and MiniMax H3: How the Names Fit Together

MiniMax’s video line has three generations and one confusing rename. Here is what each name refers to, and which of them this page actually serves.

Hailuo 02, June 2025

MiniMax launched Hailuo 02 on 18 June 2025 with native 1080p output and a Noise-aware Compute Redistribution architecture. It shipped in exactly three variants — 768p-6s, 768p-10s and 1080p-6s — which is why no Hailuo model anywhere offers ten seconds at 1080P. Editly serves its Pro tier as Hailuo Pro.

Hailuo 2.3 and 2.3 Fast, October 2025

Announced 28 October 2025, Hailuo 2.3 kept Hailuo 02’s pricing and its three duration-resolution variants while improving expression, motion response and stylised rendering. The Fast tier trades some quality for speed; MiniMax says it cuts the cost of batch creation by up to 50%. Both run on this site.

MiniMax H3, the one people call Hailuo 3.0

Released 31 July 2026, H3 is an omni-modal model: clips of up to 15 seconds at 2K with natively generated stereo audio, and text, image, video and audio all usable as references. MiniMax positions it as a new H series rather than Hailuo 3.0. Editly does not serve H3 — the generator here runs the 2.3 and 02 lines.
