Hailuo 2.3 Fast
MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 Fast animates a first-frame image from a short motion prompt. Choose this image-to-video profile for a product shot, character pose or storyboard still.
About the model
This description covers the model’s capabilities. Available in Ailoot inputs, outputs and options are listed for the selected method below.
MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 Fast is the named Fast profile for image-to-video generation. Start with a composed first-frame image and describe how the subject or camera should move. A product still, character pose or storyboard frame gives the shot a concrete visual starting point.
Prepare the image and motion brief
Provide a square PNG or JPEG image through an HTTPS URL, with each side between 300 and 4,096 pixels. The downloaded image file must be no larger than 20,000,000 bytes. Keep the prompt between 1 and 199 characters, focused on one visible action and the movement that matters to the shot.
Follow the clip to completion
This profile is configured for one 768 × 768 MP4 clip with a nominal duration of six seconds. Submit the request once, save the returned ID and follow that original request until it completes. Download the returned video and retain its reported dimensions and measured duration with the result. If the creation outcome is uncertain, continue checking the original request rather than creating it again.

PY_ASSETS
Keep all completed results
Save every completed video or returned file; retrieve every actual returned asset URL.
Completed data[] contains all owned signed content URLs. Fetch each returned URL, or use the content endpoint with index set to an actual output index. A failed original job may return charge_pending_check; check that original job rather than creating it again.
If the original response needs checking
Read existing original job; never resubmit unknown send.
