Minimax Hailuo 2.3 Fast Pro
Playground
Try it on WaveSpeedAI!Hailuo 2.3 Fast Pro converts images into high-quality 6s 1080p videos, delivering fast, affordable results for creators and marketers. Ready-to-use REST inference API, best performance, no coldstarts, affordable pricing.
Features
Hailuo 2.3 Fast Pro is the high-speed 1080p version of MiniMax’s latest video generation model. It produces cinematic-quality videos 30–50% faster than the standard model while maintaining stable motion, clear detail, and balanced lighting — ideal for creators who need both speed and quality.
⚡ Why It’s Great
- Accelerated Generation – Create 6 second clips up to twice as fast as Hailuo 2.3 Standard.
- High Efficiency, Low Cost – Perfect for batch content creation, previews, and iteration loops.
- Consistent Quality – Despite faster generation, visual stability and motion smoothness remain impressive.
- Safety & Prompt Expansion – Built-in safety checker and automatic prompt enhancement for optimal output.
- Flexible Durations – Supports 6-second formats at 1080p clarity.
🧩 Input Parameters
-
prompt (optional, text) Your scene description.
-
image* (required) Reference image URL or upload.
-
enable_prompt_expansion (checkbox) Auto-enhances your prompt to improve quality and coherence. Also enables the safety checker to filter risky content.
-
go_fast (checkbox) Prioritize speed with a moderate trade-off in visual quality—great for rapid iteration.
🚀 How to Use (step-by-step)
- Provide image (required). Paste a URL or upload a clear reference image to stabilize identity, pose, and layout.
- Write prompt (optional). Keep it concise: subject + camera/lighting/motion. Prompt Expansion can refine details.
- Enable enable_prompt_expansion (recommended). Better coherence and details, with built-in safety checks.
- Toggle go_fast. Faster results for previews and batch iteration.
- Click Run and receive your clip.
💰 Pricing
| Duration | Resolution | Cost per Job |
|---|---|---|
| 6 seconds | 1080p | $0.33 |
💡 Pro Tips
- Keep prompts concise — the model auto-expands them intelligently.
- Use lighting cues like sunset, studio light, or cinematic glow for richer output.
- Combine clips to create longer edits using consistent camera language.

Task Submission Parameters
Request Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Range | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| image | string | Yes | - | 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. | |
| prompt | string | No | - | The positive prompt for the generation. | |
| duration | integer | No | 6 | 6 | The duration of the generated media in seconds. |
| enable_prompt_expansion | boolean | No | true | - | 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. |
| go_fast | boolean | No | true | - | Prioritize faster video generation speed with a moderate trade-off in visual quality |
