Native 2K with single-pass audio
Dialogue, sound effects, and ambient audio all generate in the same pass as the video — no separate audio stage, no post-hoc voiceover step. That's a direct upgrade over Hailuo 2.3, which has no native audio at all.
Hailuo 3.0 — officially named MiniMax H3 — is MiniMax's next-generation AI video model, released July 31, 2026, that generates native 2K video with synchronized dialogue, sound effects, and ambience in a single pass, up to 15 seconds per clip, with an extensive Omni-Reference system for character and style consistency.
Built for video creators, marketers, and studios, it's a direct upgrade from Hailuo 2.3 — reading text, images, video, and audio as one unified context, so reference-driven generation and instruction-based editing work as core features rather than add-ons.
Dialogue-driven scenes, product ads, short films, music videos, character-consistent series
Video and marketing teams that need native audio, precise reference control, and editing without regenerating
Native 2K, native audio, and deep reference control — in a single generation pass.
Dialogue, sound effects, and ambient audio all generate in the same pass as the video — no separate audio stage, no post-hoc voiceover step. That's a direct upgrade over Hailuo 2.3, which has no native audio at all.
Supply up to 9 images, 3 video clips, and 3 audio clips in one generation to guide character appearance, visual style, motion, and voice — the reference depth that makes recurring characters and matched brand style practical.
Revise a character, object, scene, or line of dialogue on an existing clip using plain instructions, without regenerating the whole thing from scratch — a targeted fix instead of a full re-roll.
Multiple shots can sit inside a single generation — a title sequence or a shot-reverse-shot dialogue beat produced in one run rather than cut together from separate clips.
MiniMax released Hailuo 3.0's base weights on August 3, 2026, just days after launch — one of the first frontier-grade video models to ship with an open-weight commitment, under a planned license covering commercial use for smaller organizations.

Everything you need to know about Hailuo 3.0 in Phygital+.
Hailuo 3.0 — officially named MiniMax H3 — is MiniMax's next-generation AI video model, unveiled July 17, 2026 at WAIC and released July 31, 2026. It's an omni-modal model that reads text, images, video, and audio as one unified context, generating native 2K video with synchronized dialogue, sound effects, and ambience in a single pass, up to 15 seconds per clip.
Usage is credit-based and included in every Phygital+ plan — from the free plan up to Enterprise. The exact credit cost per generation is shown live in the node before you run it. This is separate from MiniMax's own pay-as-you-go API pricing, reported at roughly $0.13 per second of 2K video — note that as a very new model, MiniMax's own pricing may still change.
Outputs created on any paid plan (Starter and up) come with commercial-use rights. Separately, MiniMax has released Hailuo 3.0's weights under a planned MiniMax Community License permitting commercial use for organizations under $20M in revenue, with attribution — check current license terms if you plan to self-host. Check the model card for any provider-specific limits.
Standard generations run 5 to 15 seconds, with multiple shots able to sit inside a single clip — a title sequence or a shot-reverse-shot dialogue beat can be produced in one run instead of stitched from separate generations. Resolution is native 2K (1440p on the short edge) at a fixed 24fps, across six aspect ratios including 16:9, 9:16, and 21:9.
Omni-Reference is Hailuo 3.0's reference system: supply up to 9 images, 3 video clips, and 3 audio clips in a single generation to guide character appearance, visual style, motion, and voice consistency. It's what makes recurring characters and matched brand style practical across a series of generations.
Yes — this is one of Hailuo 3.0's headline features. Dialogue, sound effects, and ambient audio all generate in the same pass as the video, with no separate audio stage. This is a genuine upgrade over Hailuo 2.3, which does not generate native audio at all.
Yes — MiniMax released Hailuo 3.0's base weights on August 3, 2026, days after the model's public launch, making it one of the first frontier-grade video models with an open-weight release. Licensing is planned under a MiniMax Community License covering commercial use for smaller organizations; verify current terms before self-hosting, since this is a very recent and still-evolving release.
Standard Hailuo 2.3 tops out at 1080p for 6 seconds (or 768p for 10 seconds) with no native audio and no reference system. Hailuo 3.0 is a substantial generational jump: native 2K, 15-second single-pass clips with built-in dialogue and sound, Omni-Reference for character and style consistency, and instruction-based editing on existing clips.
Yes. MiniMax offers Hailuo 3.0 through its Open Platform API on a pay-as-you-go basis, alongside the Hailuo app, the MiniMax Hub desktop app, and third-party hosts. In Phygital+, you can run it as a node on any plan, with API and integration support on the Enterprise plan.
Running Hailuo 3.0 in Phygital+ means no separate signup or credit balance for one model: it sits on the same canvas as 30+ other AI tools. Chain generation, instruction-based editing, upscaling, and other models into one repeatable workflow under a single subscription.
