Hailuo AI - A Leading AI Video Generation Platform

Hailuo AI is a leading AI video generation platform from MiniMax, built around the creative idea that every idea is a blockbuster. As a flagship of Chinese AI video generation tools, Hailuo AI was developed on MiniMax's in-house trillion-parameter MoE multimodal model abab-6.5, reaching internationally leading technical performance.

Core Features

AI Video Generation

Hailuo AI supports both text-to-video (T2V) and image-to-video (I2V) modes. Users only need to enter a simple text description or upload a single image to generate 6-10 second HD video content within a short time, at resolutions up to 1280×720 or even 1080P. The latest Hailuo 02 model extends video length to 10 seconds and supports realistic physical effects and fluid dynamics.

Director-Grade Camera Controls

The platform offers a professional Director mode with classic camera movements including pan left/right, tracking, focus, tilt up, and tilt down. Users can achieve professional shooting effects through natural language commands or on-screen camera control buttons.

Emotional Expression Strength

Hailuo AI stands out in generating facial expressions, precisely capturing and presenting complex emotional shifts. Transitions from happiness to sadness are natural and smooth, and hand movements look especially natural — outperforming most competitors, including Sora, in this respect.

Technical Strengths and Performance

In the authoritative VBench evaluation, Hailuo AI beat Sora (85.2) on key dimensions such as "character expression consistency" (89.7) and "motion smoothness" (91.2), firmly holding first place on global video generation model leaderboards. In the Artificial Analysis Video Arena rankings, Hailuo 02 ranks second, behind only ByteDance's Seedance 1.0 pro and ahead of well-known products such as Google's Veo 3 Preview and Kuaishou's Kling 2.0.

Context processing: Based on the 01-series architecture, Hailuo AI supports input processing of up to 200k tokens, with extremely high accuracy in understanding Chinese prompts — it can process 30,000 characters of information within 1 second, greatly improving creative efficiency.
