How much does a MiniMax H3 Max render cost?
MiniMax H3 Max
From $0.04/s. 480P $0.04/s. 768P $0.06/s.
MiniMax H3

Hailuo 2.3

Hailuo 2.3 Fast
From $0.07/s.
H3 Max starts at ⚡31 and climbs with length and resolution, so a 5 second 480p draft is cheap and a 15 second 768p finish is not. The composer quotes the exact ⚡ for your settings before anything runs. The ⚡50 signup grant is there to try the roster, not to fund a campaign. Packs start at $10/800⚡.

● Director's notes
Tips for best results
with MiniMax H3 Max
Four habits that separate a clean take from an expensive re-roll.
Say it plainly, once
The post-train rewards a literal brief. Name the subject, the move and the light.
Literal beats clever
Pin both ends when the motion matters
The image lane reads up to two stills. The catalog names no role for either. Pin the shot you want held.
Two positional images
Re-roll instead of over-writing
Renders come back fast enough to try three readings of one line. Pick the winner.
Three takes, one line
Draft at 480p, finish at 768p
Length and resolution set the price. Test the beat cheap, then render the finish.

● Questions
Frequently asked questions
It is MiniMax H3, post-trained by fal on the H3 weights with substantial new data and a reinforcement-learning pass scored by human preference. The tuning targets prompt adherence and visual quality, so the same brief lands closer to what you wrote.
One trade, not two. H3 Max renders much faster and follows the brief tighter. H3 keeps the 2K ceiling. Both read up to nine references. Max does it on its reference lane, H3 in one context. Max tops out at 768p. Both sit one chip apart in the same composer.
Any whole second from 5 to 15, and the composer starts at 5. For longer sequences, render several takes and cut them together in your editor. Every take lands in the same library.
Either 480p or 768p, and the composer opens on 480p. There is no 2K on this line. Pick 480p for drafts and 768p for the finish. Resolution and length together set the price, and the composer shows the exact ⚡ before you render.
No. Every take comes back silent, and there is no audio switch on the render. Cast Veo 3.1 when the deliverable needs sound in the same pass. The same wallet covers both.
Six: 21:9, 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4 and 9:16, with 16:9 as the default. H3 adds a seventh, adaptive, which lets the model choose. H3 Max asks you to pick.

A post-train, not a new model
H3 Max starts from MiniMax H3's own weights. fal re-trained it on substantial new data with a reinforcement-learning pass scored by human preference, aimed at two things: doing what the prompt says, and looking better while it does it. The brief you write for H3 is the brief you write here.
Speed is the other half
fal reports a five second take returning in about three seconds of wall time, and roughly 35 times the throughput of the official H3 endpoint. Our own catalog quotes a more conservative 15 to 20 seconds a render. Either figure is a different rhythm from H3's two to three minutes. A shot list becomes a session, not an afternoon. A re-roll costs you seconds instead of a coffee.
What the Max line gives up
There is no 2K on H3 Max. It renders 480p or 768p. It steers three ways: from a prompt alone, from a first frame, or from up to nine references. References are cited by position in the brief. That lane costs more than the other two. It is also the one thing Turbo does not do. When the deliverable needs 2K, MiniMax H3 is the model for that brief.
One composer, one wallet
Every take lands in the same library, whatever model made it. Browse the roster on the models hub, or start from the AI Video Generator and switch models without moving your prompt. The price sits on the button before you press it.
