Hailuo 02 by Hailuo AI is an image-to-video model delivering ultra-clear 768P video with responsive handling of physics-driven scenes. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.

Features

Hailuo 02 (Standard, I2V) is Hailuo AI’s image-to-video model built on MiniMax’s evolving framework. It’s fine-tuned for ultra-clear 768p output, high prompt responsiveness, and robust physics—even in chaotic, action-heavy scenes.


Why it’s great

  • Native 768p clarity – crisp frames without upscaling.
  • Strong motion & physics – believable debris, cloth, impacts, and handheld shake.
  • Cinematic continuity – smoother frame-to-frame transitions, fewer artifacts.
  • Prompt-responsive – follows detailed scene and camera directions reliably.

Parameters

  • prompt (optional) – Describe scene, lighting, and camera moves.
  • image* – Starting frame (JPG/PNG).
  • end_image (optional) – Target frame for a guided transition.
  • duration6s or 10s.
  • enable_prompt_expansion – Auto-refines the prompt and applies safety checks.

How to use (short)

  1. Upload image (and optional end_image).
  2. Add a concise prompt with motion + lighting + mood.
  3. Choose duration (6s / 10s).
  4. (Optional) Keep prompt expansion on for cleaner results.
  5. Click Run.

Example prompts

  • Slow dolly-in on a playful puppy sprinting across a sunny field, shallow depth of field, soft grass motion, warm backlight.
  • Moody sci-fi corridor; camera orbits a robot as sparks fall, volumetric fog, blue rim-light, cinematic grade.

Task Submission Parameters

Request Parameters

ParameterTypeRequiredDefaultRangeDescription
imagestringYes-The model generates video with the picture passed in as the first frame.Base64 encoded strings in data:image/jpeg; base64,{data} format for incoming images, or URLs accessible via the public network. The uploaded image needs to meet the following conditions: Format is JPG/JPEG/PNG; The aspect ratio is greater than 2:5 and less than 5:2; Short side pixels greater than 300px; The image file size cannot exceed 20MB.
promptstringNo-The positive prompt for the generation.
end_imagestringNo--The model generates video with the picture passed in as the last frame.Base64 encoded strings in data:image/jpeg; base64,{data} format for incoming images, or URLs accessible via the public network. The uploaded image needs to meet the following conditions: Format is JPG/JPEG/PNG; The aspect ratio is greater than 2:5 and less than 5:2; Short side pixels greater than 300px; The image file size cannot exceed 20MB.
durationintegerNo66, 10The duration of the generated media in seconds.
enable_prompt_expansionbooleanNofalse-The model automatically optimizes incoming prompts to enhance output quality. This also activates the safety checker, which ensures content safety by detecting and filtering potential risks.
