Fast AI Video Generation with Hailuo 2.3
MiniMax's Hailuo 2.3 video generation model delivering 768p videos with both text-to-video and image-to-video support. A cost-effective option for social media content, quick iterations, and template-based video creation.
What makes Hailuo 2.3 different
One of the cheapest ways to iterate on video
Hailuo 2.3 charges a flat, low per-video price — under half a dollar for a 10-second clip on Scenetra. At that rate you can afford to generate five takes of the same idea and keep the best one, which changes how you work: iteration stops being a luxury and becomes the default.
Dynamic, physical motion
Hailuo models have built their reputation on movement — energetic camera work, expressive characters, and motion that respects momentum and weight. Independent comparisons consistently call out Hailuo's dynamism and realistic appearance as its edge, even against pricier models.
Strong with anime and stylized looks
Version 2.3 is widely noted for improved handling of anime and specialized art styles, holding line work and character aesthetics stable across frames instead of drifting toward photorealism. If your content leans illustrated or stylized, that makes it a natural first pick.
Text or first frame, same node
Describe a scene and Hailuo 2.3 generates it from scratch, or attach a first-frame image and it animates your exact starting point. On a Scenetra board you can wire an image model's output straight into the Hailuo node — generate the perfect still cheaply, then spend seconds of video budget only on the winner.

What is Hailuo 2.3?+
Hailuo 2.3 is MiniMax's AI video generation model, producing 768p clips of 6 or 10 seconds from a text prompt or a first-frame image. It's known for dynamic motion and strong stylized/anime rendering at a very low per-video price. On Scenetra it runs as a node in the visual workflow editor.
Is Hailuo 2.3 free or paid?+
It's a paid model, but inexpensive — and you can try it without paying. New Scenetra accounts get free welcome credits and a 7-day trial, which at Hailuo 2.3's prices covers a good number of generations. After that it's pay-per-generation from your credit balance, with no subscription gating the model.
How much does Hailuo 2.3 cost?+
It's one of the cheapest video models on Scenetra: real charged examples are about $0.24 for a 5-second generation and $0.47 for a 10-second one at the standard 768p tier. You pay per generation — no monthly plan required.
Is Hailuo 2.3 better than Kling?+
It depends on the job. Benchmarks and community comparisons score them very close: Hailuo 2.3 tends to win on price, speed, dynamism, and stylized content, while Kling is often preferred for control and lip-sync-focused character work. On Scenetra both are on the same board, so you can run the same prompt through each and compare directly.
Can Hailuo 2.3 do image to video?+
Yes — attach a first-frame image to the node and Hailuo 2.3 animates from that exact starting point, guided by your prompt. It's an effective way to control composition: create the still with any image model on your board, then hand it to Hailuo for motion.
What resolution and durations does Hailuo 2.3 support?+
The standard tier outputs 768p video, with a choice of 6-second or 10-second durations. There are no separate resolution tiers to configure — which keeps both the workflow and the pricing simple.
How do I use Hailuo 2.3 online?+
Sign up for Scenetra, drop a Hailuo 2.3 node onto your board, type a prompt (optionally attach a first frame), and generate. It's fully web-based — no app install, no API key — and Hailuo sits alongside Kling, Wan, Seedance, and the other major models on one canvas.
