## What is MiniMax Hailuo 2.3

MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 is MiniMax's flagship video model. It generates 6 or 10-second clips at 720P (768P) or 1080P, from either a text prompt or a starting image.

Billing is per call and tiered by resolution × duration, so the headline figure is a starting price rather than a flat rate: from $0.056 per call against MiniMax's $0.28. The exact rate for each resolution and duration combination is in the pricing section above — check the tier you actually intend to generate at before budgeting.

It answers on the OpenAI Sora protocol. Video generation is asynchronous: the request returns a job and the result is polled, so a client written for synchronous chat completions needs a different call pattern here.

## Key capabilities

- **6s or 10s, 720P or 1080P** — Four resolution × duration combinations, each with its own per-call rate.
- **Text-to-video and image-to-video** — Start from a prompt or from a starting image.
- **Tiered per-call billing** — The headline price is a starting rate — check the specific tier you will generate at.
- **Asynchronous** — Returns a job that is polled for the result, not a synchronous response.
