Hailuo 2.3

Video GenerationImage AnimationComplex Motion

MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 generates videos from text or one starting image, with particular strength in complex physical action, expressive character performance, motion-command adherence, and varied visual styles. APIXO groups standard 768p and pro 1080p workflows under one asynchronous endpoint with distinct duration and billing rules.

Capabilities

Motion designed for expressive visual storytelling

Complex Body Movement

Generate more fluid and controlled character actions, including demanding movement sequences. MiniMax specifically improved the model’s understanding of physical action, helping poses and transitions remain more natural during dynamic performance.

Natural Micro-Expressions

Create live-action character performances with subtler facial changes and more natural emotional detail. This makes Hailuo 2.3 useful when expression, reaction, and personality need to carry a short scene.

Motion Command Adherence

Direct how characters and objects should move through the scene. Improved response to motion instructions supports clearer actions, product behavior, timing cues, and camera-aware movement within concise generated shots.

Dynamic Cinematic Visuals

Combine moving subjects with dynamic camera direction while retaining more coherent lighting, shadow transitions, and color. Detailed prompts can establish shot movement, atmosphere, visual emphasis, and scene rhythm.

Expanded Style Range

Work across live action, anime, illustration, game CG, ink-wash aesthetics, and other stylized directions. Hailuo 2.3 is designed to preserve a wider variety of visual languages during motion.

Object Motion Control

Animate products, props, vehicles, effects, and environmental elements with improved response to movement instructions. This supports advertising concepts where the featured object—not only a human character—drives the shot.

APIXO Output Tiers

Choose flexible standard clips or fixed pro output

Standard 768p Modes

Generate from text or one image at 768p. Choose a 6- or 10-second duration, with APIXO billing each output second at 56 Credits. Standard modes suit story development and shots that need the longer available duration.

6s or 10s

Pro 1080p Modes

Generate from text or one image at 1080p for a fixed APIXO price of 490 Credits per generation. On this endpoint, pro modes ignore the submitted duration and return a fixed five-second clip.

Fixed 5s

Production Uses

Character Performance

Action and Expression Studies

Develop dance, sports, dramatic reaction, and performance concepts that depend on coordinated body movement and facial expression. Use descriptive prompts for action order, emotional progression, camera behavior, lighting, and pacing.

Commercial Motion

Product-Led Advertising Shots

Animate product reveals, demonstrations, fashion moments, and ecommerce campaign concepts. Hailuo 2.3’s stronger object-motion response helps when movement, materials, visual effects, and camera direction must work together in one concise shot.

Animation

Stylized Scenes and Game Concepts

Explore anime, illustration, game CG, ink-wash, and surreal motion directions without switching to a style-specific endpoint. Image-to-video mode can begin from an approved character or environment frame when the initial design matters.

Preproduction

Cinematic Shot Prototypes

Validate camera movement, blocking, lighting transitions, effects, and scene rhythm before live production or detailed animation. Standard mode provides longer exploration, while APIXO’s pro tier supplies a shorter 1080p output for higher-resolution review.

Integration Notes

Match each request to the correct mode

APIXO constraints

APIXO exposes separate standard and pro modes for both text-to-video and image-to-video generation.

Standard modes accept 6- or 10-second duration and always produce 768p output.

Pro modes ignore duration and produce a fixed five-second 1080p video on APIXO.

Image-to-video requires exactly one public JPG, JPEG, or PNG image URL.

APIXO does not publicly expose aspect-ratio, frame-rate, seed, audio, or camera-preset fields for this route.

Prompts, source images, and outputs remain subject to provider safety review and may be rejected.

Hailuo 2.3 questions

The endpoint uses MiniMax’s MiniMax-Hailuo-2.3, released through the MiniMax Open Platform API on October 28, 2025. It does not cover Hailuo 2.3 Fast, Hailuo 02, or earlier Hailuo models.

Hailuo 2.3 is the quality-focused model and supports both text-to-video and image-to-video. MiniMax positions Hailuo 2.3 Fast as the lower-cost, speed-oriented image-to-video variant; APIXO provides it through a separate endpoint.

No. APIXO publicly documents one starting image for Hailuo 2.3 image-to-video mode. It does not expose a last-frame field, end-frame-only workflow, subject-reference mode, video input, or multiple reference images on this endpoint.

Not through the published APIXO schema. The exposed creative inputs are the mode, prompt, duration, and—when using image-to-video—one image URL. The source image should therefore be prepared with the intended composition before submission.

APIXO does not document an audio input, audio-generation switch, or guaranteed soundtrack for this endpoint. Treat Hailuo 2.3 as a visual video-generation route and plan separate sound design unless output testing confirms otherwise.
