MiniMax (official)
1 Tool · 10 Intel
MiniMax is a Shanghai-based artificial intelligence company that develops multimodal large language models and consumer AI applications, including the Talkie character app and the Hailuo video-generation service. It was founded in late 2021/early 2022 by CEO Yan Junjie along with Yang Bin and Zhou Yucong, several of whom previously worked at SenseTime. MiniMax went public on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in January 2026, valuing the company at roughly $13 billion.

Attention kernels for NVIDIA Blackwell that add sparse top-k prefill to speed MiniMax M3 inference.

MiniMax recaps its H3 AMA: an Apache-2.0 relicense is under consideration, a technical report is being written, H3-Regenerate-2K (a latent-space DiT regeneration model, not a pixel upscaler) is planned for open release, and sparse attention uses MoBA-style train-aware block selection.
MiniMax H3's video weights are out, and ComfyUI shipped native nodes the same day. Five workflows are exposed: text to video, image to video, first frame control, last frame control, and reference to video that carries a subject, a motion or a voice across shots.
MiniMax launches H3, a single generative model that reads text, images, video and audio as one context and returns 2K video with native stereo. The post details the unified pretraining approach that replaces per-task specialist models, plus pricing and a plan to publish weights.
MiniMax released Music3, an open-weights music generation model, publishing weights to Hugging Face and ModelScope alongside code on GitHub and a gallery of generated tracks. Enough is public to evaluate output quality and self-host before committing to a vendor API.
MiniMax disputes claims that H3 cannot legally be used in Western markets. It says deployment in the US, EU, UK and South Korea is available through a formal authorization process, with a license request form published in its License Q&A guide.
MiniMax H3, an open-weights omni-modal generation model, ships with day-zero vLLM-Omni support and an OpenAI-compatible video endpoint, putting self-hosted video generation on the same serving path teams already use for text models.
NVIDIA's SANA team splits MiniMax H3 generation into a 4-step low-res draft and a 3-step LTX refinement with Sol-Attn kernels, replacing heavy VAE decodes with TAEH3/TAEHV. Ten seconds of 768p falls from 414s to 14.93s on a single GB200, reshaping the unit economics of video serving.
MiniMax released Music 3 under open weights, with local ComfyUI support available at launch and a hosted cloud version still to come. The company restated its intent to keep releasing open models. It did not answer a public question about the training data.
MiniMax H3 is now publicly available: a direct API plus web and desktop apps, with separate global and China endpoints. Teams wanting the multimodal video model behind a stable first-party endpoint no longer have to reach it through a partner platform.
A sizing guide for reserving MiniMax M3 capacity on Together AI. One PTU costs $0.05 per minute and buys 138,840 uncached input, 694,200 cached input or 23,140 output tokens per minute, with a formula for mixed traffic and three modeled production workloads.
