What is Hailuo 2.3
Hailuo 2.3 is MiniMax's video model from the Hailuo line, available on Genosai in the Pro variant for image-to-video mode. Unlike text-based generators, it starts from a finished frame: you upload an image, describe the motion, and the model animates it into a short clip. This approach gives more control over the composition and the character's appearance, because a specific picture serves as the starting point.
By the numbers, Hailuo 2.3 generates at 768p for 6 or 10 seconds and at 1080p for 6 seconds, at 24 frames per second. At 1080p the length is capped at six seconds for maximum sharpness, while at 768p a longer ten-second clip is available. This set of formats covers both product clips and short social scenes.
On Genosai the Pro variant is connected. It prioritizes quality: a sharper picture and richer detail in about 60 seconds of generation. The line's fast variant returns a 6-second 768p clip in about 30 seconds but with less detail. Pro targets production level, so people pick it when clean motion and a stable frame matter more than minimal wait time.
On Genosai the model runs online: you do not need a developer account, API keys or your own infrastructure. You open the video studio in the browser, upload a frame and describe the motion — and get a short clip up to 1080p. Hailuo 2.3 suits marketers, product teams and authors who already have a source image and need careful animation.
Capabilities
Hailuo 2.3 in the Pro variant gives production quality from a finished frame. Here is what the model does in practice.
Image-to-video
The model's main mode is animating an uploaded frame. You set a source image and describe the motion: a pan, a push-in, an object's action. The model keeps the composition and the character's appearance from the source and builds natural dynamics around it, so the result is closer to a "living photo" than to generation from scratch.
Resolution and duration
The model generates at 768p for 6 or 10 seconds and at 1080p for 6 seconds at 24 frames per second. For maximum sharpness take 1080p if you fit within six seconds; for a longer scene, take 768p for ten seconds. This choice lets you balance resolution and duration for the task at hand.
Pro mode
The Pro variant prioritizes quality. It returns a sharper 1080p picture and richer detail in about 60 seconds. This is a deliberate trade of time for a clean result: Pro is picked where the final quality matters more than the speed of sweeping. For volume drafts, lighter models are faster.
Production quality
Hailuo 2.3 targets professional clips: clean motion, a stable frame and careful physics. The model holds objects and does not break the composition on short scenes, so it suits ads and product videos where every artifact is noticeable.
Online with no setup
The model is connected on Genosai and runs in the browser. You do not need a MiniMax developer account, API keys or your own infrastructure — just upload a frame and describe the motion. That removes the entry barrier for anyone who wants quality i2v with no technical wiring.
Examples
There is no demo gallery for Hailuo 2.3 on Genosai yet, so instead of ready clips we describe the typical scenarios the model is built for. The first scenario is animating a product photo: you upload a shot of the item and add a slow turnaround and a subtle camera move to get a short 1080p ad clip.
The second scenario is animating a portrait or character: the source frame comes to life with soft motion and expression, keeping the character's appearance. The third scenario is a short scene from a photo: a landscape or interior gets camera motion and living detail. The fourth scenario is a longer ten-second clip at 768p, when duration matters more than maximum resolution. In all cases an uploaded frame is the starting point, and motion is set by the prompt.
How to use on Genosai
Launching Hailuo 2.3 on Genosai requires no setup: everything happens in the browser and the model is already connected. The basic path from a frame to a finished clip looks like this.
- Sign in to your Genosai account and open the video studio.
- Pick Hailuo 2.3 in the model list.
- Upload a source frame for image-to-video.
- Describe the motion: a pan, a push-in, an object's and camera's action.
- Choose resolution and duration: 1080p for 6 seconds or 768p up to 10 seconds, then run the generation.
- Download the clip or refine the prompt and regenerate.

These templates show how to phrase tasks for Hailuo 2.3. Replace the text in square brackets with your own data and add details on motion and light — the model takes them into account when animating the frame.
Image-to-video: animate the uploaded frame [description], soft object motion, keep the composition, 1080p, 6 seconds.Product clip: [item] on [background], slow turnaround, clean light, careful physics, 1080p.Portrait in motion: animate the frame [character], subtle expression and natural motion, keep the appearance.Scene from a photo: [landscape or interior], smooth camera pan, living detail, 768p, 10 seconds.Push-in to an object: a slow push-in toward [object], a stable frame, no cuts, 1080p.Product dynamics: [item] in action, crisp motion, stable composition, 6 seconds.Atmospheric scene: animate the frame [description], soft light and gentle air movement, 768p.Generation cost
On Genosai the cost of Hailuo 2.3 is counted per generation and runs from 45 to 90 credits depending on the resolution and length of the clip. The higher 1080p resolution and maximum detail push the price toward the top, while a short 768p clip lands nearer the bottom. Since the Pro variant is connected on Genosai, you pay for production-level quality.
You pay for actual generations, with no monthly subscription, so the spend is easy to plan for the amount of work. Starter credits after sign-up let you try Hailuo 2.3 for free. Current packages and balance are in the Pricing section.
Comparison
Hailuo 2.3 is the choice when you need quality image-to-video from a finished frame at 1080p. If speed and sound in one short clip matter more, look at Grok Imagine 1.5; expressive motion and long scenes are covered by Kling 2.6. A multilingual model with sound close in spirit is HappyHorse, and a versatile line with sound is covered by Seedance 2.0.
| Model | Strength | Price on Genosai |

| Hailuo 2.3 | Quality i2v at 1080p | from 45 credits |
| Grok Imagine 1.5 | Speed and sound | from 12 credits/sec |
| Kling 2.6 | Expressive motion | from 55 credits |
| HappyHorse | Multilingual lip-sync and sound | from 22 credits/sec |
| Seedance 2.0 | Versatile line with sound | from 9 credits/sec |
All models are available in one Genosai interface, so you can compare them on your own scene and pick the best by price and quality. A practical approach is Hailuo 2.3 for clean i2v at 1080p, and lighter models for a fast stream and sound.
Limitations and tips
Hailuo 2.3 on Genosai works in image-to-video mode, so you need a source frame to start — a clip cannot be built from a pure text description. At 1080p the length is capped at six seconds, and a ten-second clip is available only at 768p, so choose between sharpness and length in advance. Exact limits and parameters may depend on the studio — rely on the actual result.
The quality of i2v depends heavily on the source frame. Upload a sharp image with no noise or artifacts and a clear composition — the stability of the motion depends on it directly. Describe the motion specifically: a pan, a push-in, an object's action; the clearer the input, the more predictable the animation.
Pro mode prioritizes quality, so do not expect an instant result: generation takes about 60 seconds. If you need a fast sweep of dozens of options, drafts are more convenient on lighter and faster models, and the final clip is rendered on Hailuo 2.3 at 1080p.
