# MiniMax Hailuo 03 Max Turbo

**Node type:** `video:minimax_h3_max_turbo_t2v`  
**Category:** `video`

## Description

MiniMax Hailuo 03 Max Turbo turns a text prompt, or a prompt plus a first frame, into a video clip: wire your text into **Prompt**, optionally wire an **Image** as the first frame, and run the node to get a **Generated Video**. An **End Frame** is only read when an **Image** is wired too. It is the fast tier of Hailuo 03 Max: a 5 second clip comes back in a couple of seconds, at about half the per-second cost of plain Hailuo 03 Max, with fidelity a step below, so iterate here and render the keeper on **MiniMax Hailuo 03 Max**. The Pricing figure is about 8 credits per second, the rate for a 5-second clip, and you're charged for the real length. **Resolution** and **Duration** multiply the cost, and 768P is roughly 60% dearer per second than 480P.

## Pricing

- **Cost:** ~8 credits per second
- **Per-second rate:** The figure is the rate for a 5-second clip. Shorter clips can cost a bit more per second. You're always charged for the real length.

## Variant family

- **Family:** `minimax_h3_max_turbo`
- **Is primary:** yes
- **All variants:** `video:minimax_h3_max_turbo_t2v`, `video:minimax_h3_max_turbo_i2v`

## Canvas ports

These appear as port handles on the left side of the node.

## One node, two endpoints

MiniMax ships Hailuo 03 Max Turbo as two separate APIs. This is one node, and
what you wire decides which API the run goes to:

- nothing but a **Prompt** goes to text-to-video
- an **Image** goes to image-to-video, and that frame becomes the first frame

There is no reference-to-video on Turbo. If you need reference images or
reference audio, use the plain **MiniMax Hailuo 03** node instead.

## What Turbo trades

Turbo is the fast tier of Hailuo 03 Max: MiniMax generates faster than real
time, so a 5 second clip comes back in a couple of seconds rather than a
couple of minutes. It costs about half what plain Hailuo 03 Max does per
second at the same resolution. Fidelity is a step below Max, so this is the
node for iterating on a shot and for anything where turnaround matters more
than the last few percent of detail. Render the keeper on **MiniMax Hailuo 03
Max** once the prompt is right.

## Resolution is the price

**Resolution** is the one setting that changes what a run costs. 768P is the
default and roughly 60% dearer per second than 480P. Cost is per second of
output, so resolution and **Duration** multiply: a 15 second 768P render is
just under five times a 5 second 480P one. Duration runs from 0.92 to 15
seconds, fractions allowed, and is billed per exact second.

Turbo tops out at 768P. If you want 2K, that is the plain Hailuo 03 node,
which renders at 2K only and costs considerably more per second.

## Aspect ratio only applies to text-to-video

**Aspect Ratio** is read on the text-to-video path. It is ignored for
image-to-video, where the output follows the shape of the image you wired.

## End Frame needs a start frame

**End Frame** gives you first-to-last keyframe control, and it is only read on
the image-to-video path. Wiring an end frame on its own does nothing, because
reaching that path requires an **Image**. Wire both.

## Prompt Expansion

**Prompt Expansion** decides how much MiniMax rewrites your prompt before
generating. "balanced" is the default. "quality" leans harder on the rewrite
and suits a short prompt. Turbo has no "disabled" setting, unlike the Max node
next to it, so a detailed shot description will still get some rewriting.

Prompts can run to 50,000 characters, so there is no practical reason to trim
a detailed one.
