An independent workflow, not the official app
Cicadas is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by MiniMax or Hailuo. This page runs MiniMax H3 Max, MiniMax's latest Hailuo-family model, through a third-party API — it does not sign you into the official Hailuo app or reproduce its interface.
Text prompt or one image, English workflow
Start from a written prompt or animate one JPG, PNG or WebP you are allowed to use; the output follows the source image's shape. Choose 5, 10 or 15 seconds at 480P or 768P. Each clip includes generated audio; a silent version is not offered here.
Exact quote, private MP4 delivery
5 seconds is 63 credits at 480P or 100 at 768P; 10 seconds at 768P is 200 and 15 seconds is 300. The exact total for your selection is shown before you submit. A successful generation returns one private MP4 in My videos, downloadable and recoverable.
How to use it
- 01
Choose text or image input. For image mode, upload one JPG, PNG or WebP you are allowed to use; the output follows the source image's shape.
- 02
Write your prompt, then set 5, 10 or 15 seconds and 480P or 768P. Review the exact credit quote — audio is included automatically, with no silent option.
