Catalog preview for MiniMax H3 Max. Review your own result before publishing.

A starting point.

Choose the mode for the material you already have. Start with text for a new scene, image-to-video for an opening photo, or a video-editing mode for an existing clip. The default endpoint on this page creates video from text; the other modes have their own model IDs.

Try a prompt like this

A cyclist rides along a quiet riverside path in warm morning light. The camera follows from the side at a steady distance. Keep the rider and bicycle consistent in one continuous shot.

Before you publish.

Watch the whole clip and listen to the soundtrack. Check the bicycle wheels, body movement, background continuity and any requested speech. Keep the original input and selected settings when comparing another mode.

Review the quote before running. A failed generation releases its reserved credits. Download the results you want to keep; stored media is retained for 30 days.

Inputs and settings

Describe the subject, one main action and camera movement in prompt. Choose duration, resolution and aspect_ratio from the current schema before requesting a quote.

prompt_expansion_mode controls whether the prompt is rewritten. When comparing your own instructions, keep the same expansion setting and record any expanded prompt returned with the result.

An optional target_audio_url can supply a soundtrack. Review the supported file constraints and video duration first; listen for trimming, silence or a mismatch with the visual action.

Open this operation in the studio

Use MiniMax H3 Max through the API.

Start with this model ID for the endpoint featured on this page:

minimax/h3-max/text-to-video

Input requirements belong to this model ID. Check a different mode’s schema separately when switching modes.

Available modes

Check the current model schema for supported inputs and options. Other tasks may use different model IDs.

From quote to result.

Request a credit quote for your input and settings before submitting a generation. A sample output or the price of another model is not a quote for your request.

Follow the generation workflow, then poll the job for its status and result. The API and studio use the same balance.
