The endpoint uses MiniMax-Hailuo-2.3-Fast, released on the MiniMax Open Platform API on October 28, 2025. It is distinct from MiniMax-Hailuo-2.3, Hailuo 02, and earlier Hailuo models.
Hailuo 2.3 Fast
Image to VideoFast GenerationMiniMax API
MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 Fast is a speed- and cost-oriented image-to-video model that animates one reference image from a required motion prompt. APIXO provides separate standard 768p and pro 1080p modes, asynchronous delivery, and clear per-second or per-generation billing for iterative short-form production.

Capabilities
Focused tools for rapid still-to-motion workflows
Source-Guided Animation
Every request starts from one reference image, giving the model an established subject, composition, palette, and visual style. The prompt then directs the intended action, camera behavior, lighting, and atmosphere.
Faster Generation Profile
MiniMax positions Hailuo 2.3 Fast as the faster member of the Hailuo 2.3 release. It is designed for image-to-video workloads where iteration speed and generation cost matter.
Lower-Cost Iteration
APIXO prices standard output at $0.032 per second and pro output at $0.33 per generation. This supports repeated motion tests across products, characters, storyboard frames, and campaign assets.
Prompted Motion Direction
Describe subject movement, object behavior, scene timing, camera motion, lighting changes, and visual effects in natural language. Specific motion instructions help turn a static composition into a purposeful shot.
Varied Visual Styles
Animate photographic, illustrated, anime-inspired, game-CG, or other stylized source images. A well-prepared reference gives the workflow a visual foundation that the motion prompt can build upon.
Two Output Tiers
APIXO groups a flexible 768p standard mode and a fixed 1080p pro mode on the Fast endpoint. Select the tier according to clip length, resolution requirements, and production budget.
APIXO Modes
Balance flexible duration against fixed 1080p output
Standard Image-to-Video
Generate a 768p clip lasting 6 or 10 seconds. APIXO bills this mode per output second, making it suitable for economical motion exploration and scenes that need the longer ten-second option.
768p · 6s or 10s
Pro Image-to-Video
Generate a fixed six-second 1080p clip for $0.33 per generation through APIXO. Pro mode ignores the submitted duration, so it should be selected specifically for the higher-resolution fixed-length output.

Ecommerce
Product Motion Variations
Turn a product still into reveal shots, rotations, environmental movement, or short promotional concepts. The source image anchors product appearance while the prompt describes object behavior, camera movement, lighting changes, and effects.
Social Production
High-Volume Short-Form Assets
Animate campaign artwork, promotional stills, and social graphics through a lower-cost Fast workflow. Standard mode supports economical six- and ten-second variations, while pro mode provides a fixed 1080p result.
Character Content
Portrait and Character Animation
Add gestures, expression changes, environmental motion, or camera movement to an existing character image. Important facial identity and costume details should be checked across results before using generated clips in a continuing sequence.
Preproduction
Storyboard Frame Testing
Animate approved storyboard or concept frames to evaluate shot timing, blocking, camera direction, and atmosphere. Fast iteration helps teams compare motion ideas before committing resources to final animation, filming, or compositing.

APIXO constraints
01
Hailuo 2.3 Fast supports image-to-video only; text-to-video requests are unavailable on this route.
02
Every request requires one prompt and exactly one publicly accessible source image URL.
03
Standard mode produces 768p output and accepts a duration of 6 or 10 seconds.
04
Pro mode ignores duration and produces a fixed six-second 1080p video.
05
APIXO does not publicly expose aspect ratio, frame rate, seed, audio, or output-format controls.
06
Source images, prompts, and generated videos remain subject to provider safety and moderation checks.
Hailuo 2.3 Fast questions
No. MiniMax officially defines Hailuo 2.3 Fast as an image-to-video model, and APIXO exposes only standard-image-to-video and pro-image-to-video. Use the separate Hailuo 2.3 endpoint when text-to-video input is required.
Hailuo 2.3 Fast prioritizes generation speed and lower cost for image-to-video workloads. The separate Hailuo 2.3 model supports both text-to-video and image-to-video and is positioned for maximum visual quality and creative control.
No. APIXO accepts exactly one source image and does not expose additional subject references, a last-frame field, or first-and-last-frame interpolation for this endpoint. Prepare the source image with the intended opening composition.
No. The source image guides appearance and composition, but complex movement can still alter faces, hands, clothing, products, or background details. Review important identity and brand elements and regenerate when necessary.
