Why Use Hailuo AI
Image to Video
Upload a photo and transform it into a cinematic video with natural body movement, accurate physics, and expressive character animation.
Extended Video Duration
Generate 6 or 10-second clips at high quality. Hailuo maintains temporal consistency and motion coherence throughout the full duration.
Character Consistency
Hailuo excels at maintaining character identity across frames — subtle facial expressions, body proportions, and clothing details stay consistent.
Cinematic Camera Control
Embed camera directives in your prompt for professional shots: panning, tilting, zooming, tracking, and dolly movements.
100% Cloud-Based
No GPU required, no setup. ComfyUI Web runs Hailuo on cloud GPUs — works on any device with a browser.
trial-credit tier Available

How to Use Hailuo AI on ComfyUI Web
Generate your first Hailuo video in under two minutes.
Upload an Image or Write a Prompt
Hailuo accepts text prompts, images, or both. For best results with characters, upload a clear source photo showing the subject you want to animate.
Add Camera and Motion Directives
Include camera movement in your prompt: 'slow dolly forward', 'orbital shot around subject', 'tracking shot from left'. Hailuo translates these into professional cinematography.
Generate & Download
Click generate and wait 30-60 seconds. The Hailuo Fast variant generates 6-second 1080p clips in approximately 55 seconds. Download in MP4 format.
What Is Hailuo AI?
Hailuo is MiniMax's flagship video generation model, known for producing some of the most expressive and physically accurate AI-generated videos available. Released as version 2.3 in October 2025, Hailuo focuses on character expressiveness and motion realism over raw duration or resolution.
MiniMax, the Beijing-based AI company, has positioned Hailuo as the go-to model for creators who need lifelike character animation — facial micro-expressions, natural body mechanics, and emotionally nuanced performances.
Hailuo 2.3 Key Features
Enhanced body movement is Hailuo 2.3's headline improvement. Complex physical actions like dance, gymnastics, and athletic movements are rendered with accurate physics — proper gravity, momentum, and weight distribution throughout the motion.
Micro-expression support captures subtle emotional nuance: slight eyebrow raises, mouth corner movements, eye narrowing. These details elevate generated videos from 'impressive AI' to genuinely expressive content.
Cinematic camera control allows embedding movement directives directly in prompts. The model handles professional camera operations including panning, tilting, zooming, tracking shots, and dolly movements with proper parallax and depth.
Expanded style support covers anime, illustration, ink-wash painting, and game CGI aesthetics alongside photorealistic output. Each style benefits from the same motion quality improvements.
Technical Specifications
Hailuo 2.3 generates video at 768p or 1080p resolution (1080p limited to 6-second clips). Standard mode produces 6 or 10-second clips, with the Fast variant optimized for speed at approximately 55 seconds per 6-second 1080p clip.
The model accepts text prompts, images, or combined text-and-image inputs. Camera movement, character action, and stylistic direction can all be specified through natural language prompts.
Hailuo 2.3 maintains the same pricing as the previous Hailuo 02 model while offering substantially improved motion quality, character expressiveness, and style range.
Hailuo vs Wan and Seedance
Wan 2.6 excels in duration (up to 15 seconds) and versatility with the R2V character system. Seedance leads in audio-visual synchronization. Hailuo's strength is character expressiveness and motion realism — no other model matches its micro-expression quality and physical accuracy.
All three are available on ComfyUI Web, making it easy to compare results on the same prompt. For character-driven content where emotional nuance matters, Hailuo is the strongest choice. For longer narrative content, Wan is preferred. For audio-visual content, Seedance leads.
