MiniMax has announced the release of its new video model, Hailuo 2.3, along with Hailuo 2.3 Fast. The official description states that the new version significantly improves body movement, facial expressions, and physical realism, while optimizing motion command response, stylization, and consistency of micro-expressions. The "Fast" version offers lower latency and more controllable costs, suitable for mass production or rapid iteration. The web template page is marked "Introducing Hailuo 2.3 / 2.3 Fast," offering two workflows: text-to-video and image-to-video.
The platform page shows that the Hailuo 2.3 series is now available for trial on the site, offering a daily limit of 4 free generation sessions. Creators can directly access upgraded dance, emoticon, anime/art style, and e-commerce ad templates from the scene library, choosing between realistic quality and generation speed as needed. Third-party platforms have also launched 2.3 Fast documentation and API access points for easy integration into their own workflows.
