Hailuo 2.3 Standard Image to Video Generator
Animate a still with Hailuo 2.3 Standard, the budget tier of MiniMax's Hailuo 2.3 image to video model. One photo, one line of motion, and a 6 or 10 second clip at 768P or 1080P. A 6-second animation costs 7 credits, which makes this the tier to use when you need volume rather than a hero shot.
Best for social posts, product listings and batch work where cost per clip matters more than pixel-level polish
Hailuo 2.3 Standard Image to Video, Start to Finish
A deliberately small form: one image, one prompt, a duration and a resolution. MiniMax positions Hailuo 2.3 as a step up from Hailuo 02 in motion realism and facial expression, and the Standard tier gives you that at the lowest price on this model.
One Image In
JPEG, PNG or WebP up to 10MB. Portraits, product shots and illustrated characters are what this model is built around, and it reads faces particularly well.
Motion Described in Words
The prompt is where you direct the shot: what moves, in which direction, how fast. Up to 5,000 characters, though two clear sentences usually beat a paragraph.
6 or 10 Seconds
Two fixed lengths rather than a slider. 6 seconds covers most social formats; 10 seconds gives a gesture or a camera move room to complete.
768P or 1080P
768P is the default and the cheapest route at 7 credits. 1080P is available at 6 seconds only, an upstream limit of the model rather than a choice we made.
7 to 15 Credits
7 credits for 6 seconds at 768P, 15 for either 10 seconds at 768P or 6 seconds at 1080P. Roughly half of what the Pro tier charges for the same settings.
Failed Runs Are Refunded
Credits are held at submission and released automatically if the model errors, returns no video or never responds. Only delivered clips end up costing you anything.
The Volume Tier
At 7 credits a clip, five animations still cost less than one 40-credit Veo 3.1 Quality render. Animate the whole set here, then move the winners up to Pro.
How to Animate a Photo With Hailuo 2.3 Standard
Four steps and a couple of minutes of waiting. No timeline, no keyframes, no editing software.
Upload the Image
One file under 10MB. Give the subject some space in frame: a tightly cropped face has nowhere to move, and the result reads as a wobble rather than a performance.
Describe the Motion
Name the action and the camera separately. "She turns her head towards the window and smiles, camera holds still" is the level of detail that works here.
Choose Length and Resolution
6 or 10 seconds, 768P or 1080P. If you pick 1080P the 10-second option disappears, because the model does not support that combination.
Generate and Download
We budget around two and a half minutes for this tier. You can leave the page while it runs, and the finished clip stays in your history.
When to Step Up to Pro
If the clip is going to a client, a paid ad or anywhere a face fills the frame, generate it again on the Pro tier and compare. For feeds, tests and internal review, Standard is usually indistinguishable.

FAQ
Tiers, durations, resolutions and credit costs for Hailuo 2.3 Standard image to video.
It is the standard-quality tier of MiniMax's Hailuo 2.3 image-to-video model, hosted here so you do not need an API key. You upload one image, describe the motion, and get a 6 or 10 second clip back. FlowVeo3 is an independent platform and is not affiliated with MiniMax.
The inputs are identical and the price is not. Standard runs 7 to 15 credits and finishes faster; Pro runs 15 to 25 for the same settings and puts more compute into motion detail and facial micro-expression. Test on Standard, deliver on Pro when a face or a client is involved.
Hailuo 2.3 does not support that combination, at either tier. The 10-second option is hidden once you choose 1080P, and a request that tries to force it is rejected rather than silently downgraded. Use 768P for 10 seconds, or 1080P for 6.
7 credits for 6 seconds at 768P, and 15 credits for either 10 seconds at 768P or 6 seconds at 1080P. The free credit balance a new account starts with does not cover a Standard clip, so the first one needs a small top-up or a cheaper Grok Imagine model.
JPEG, PNG and WebP up to 10MB, one image per generation. There is no first-and-last-frame mode on this model; for that, use Wan 2.7 Image to Video.
No. Both Hailuo pages on this site run the image-to-video endpoint, so an image is required. For text-only prompts, use Grok Imagine Text to Video or Wan 2.7 Text to Video.
We budget about two and a half minutes for Standard, against roughly four for Pro. Progress is shown while it runs, and if the provider never comes back the hold on your credits is released automatically.
