Source notes
This page keeps official and secondary references close to the claims on MiniMax H3 Space. Official MiniMax pages are treated as the primary source for H3 claims. Search-level community scans are noted as limited, not as validation.

H3 launched as a general-purpose multimodal generation model with unified text, image, video, and audio context, native stereo sound, up to 15 seconds at 2K, and planned open weights.
Use: Primary facts for homepage answer, fact table, evaluation planner, and source boundary.

Hailuo 02 is the previous H-series video model with native 1080p, strong instruction following, extreme physics emphasis, NCR, and 6-10 second API variants.
Use: Used only as H-series context and comparison, not as an H3 capability claim.
official_docs - observed 2026-08-04
Current video API documentation describes asynchronous video generation and lists Hailuo-family supported model names; it does not replace the H3 announcement page.
Use: Used for API-status caution and verification checklist.

M3 is a separate M-series model with 1M context and native multimodality, useful as context for MiniMax model family boundaries.
Use: Used to keep H3 and M3 roles separate in the comparison module.

WAIC preview context suggested H3 would target multimodal generation beyond single-task image, video, audio, editing, and reference boundaries.
Use: Used only for launch-timeline context.
community_scan - observed 2026-08-04
Search-level scan did not surface a strong public forum thread focused on MiniMax H3; the page therefore treats official MiniMax material as primary and avoids claiming independent community validation.
Use: Used as a caution in source notes and evidence, not as a public endorsement.
