MiniMax H3.1 Video Generator

Official details not yet announced. The official pages reviewed for this update identify MiniMax H3, without an H3.1 announcement. This page therefore assigns no release date, specification, or price to H3.1. The current tool selection remains H3, and live generation on this independent site is still awaiting connection.

Official details not yet announced. We have no confirmed release date to publish. Our target of switching within twenty-four hours after an official release describes this project’s update plan, not MiniMax’s launch schedule. Check the official updates linked above rather than treating the site name as evidence of an upcoming launch.

The selected model for this workspace is MiniMax H3. This version lets you prepare prompts, settings, and locally checked references, but does not yet submit a generation job. It does not quietly send your request to another vendor’s model. The connection state is shown above the form and again when you press Generate video.

MiniMax’s H3 launch announcement directs readers to Hailuo AI to try the model. Hailuo AI is an official product destination linked by MiniMax; this independent workspace is a separate project. Accounts, credits, uploaded assets, and subscriptions should not be assumed to transfer between services simply because they mention the same model family.

No. The M3.1 Flash announcement concerns MiniMax’s text and agent model line. Its name does not establish a video release called H3.1. We keep the text-model announcement in the version table to make that distinction visible, and we require an official video-model source before changing the H3.1 status.

MiniMax documents a text-to-video mode for H3. A useful text-only brief describes the subject, action, camera, light, and sound without attaching media. In this page’s current preparation mode, you can select your settings and validate a brief; an actual generation request will require the live connection to be completed.

Choose references that each explain a distinct part of the idea. One might establish a subject’s appearance, another a camera movement, and another an audio direction. Tell the model which relationship matters instead of simply attaching everything available. Use materials you are entitled to submit, and remove references that contradict your prompt.

H3’s reference-mode documentation requires audio to be accompanied by an image or video. The form therefore checks for a visual reference before accepting an audio-only brief. Describe what the sound should contribute to the scene so that the reference serves a clear purpose, rather than assuming that attaching music defines the visual direction.

A file extension does not reveal every technical property of the media inside it. Size, dimensions, duration, and browser decoding support can also affect local preparation. The form explains the detected issue. A connected generation service will additionally need to validate codecs and other server-side requirements before accepting a job.

No. They are illustrated storyboard placeholders paired with authored example prompts. They help you choose a starting direction without claiming a model test took place. Use either prompt, change the details, and review your settings. Actual generated videos will occupy result slots only after the live generation connection is implemented.

This workspace does not yet have a configured H3 credit quote, so the estimate is marked as pending connection. Preparing a brief and selecting files does not charge credits. When live generation is integrated, the site should show its own confirmed charge before submission, separately from MiniMax’s provider pricing.

No. In this release, reference selection and validation happen inside your browser. The form does not upload the files or submit them to a model. Keep the tab open while preparing your brief, because a refresh clears these local selections. The eventual generation connection must explain its upload and processing behavior before submission.

Do not assume a universal watermark policy from a model name. The linked H3 creation reference does not provide a blanket watermark guarantee for every delivery service. Before publishing a finished video, check the actual output and the terms of the service that produced it, including any account or plan conditions.

Start with one subject, one visible action, and one camera movement. Decide what success would look like before trying variations. Keep your intended format and audience in mind, and write down the change you want to compare. A focused first brief makes it easier to judge the result once generation is connected.
