Does MiniMax H3 Reference to Video have an API?

Yes. On SamAutomation MiniMax H3 Reference to Video runs through one endpoint - POST /api/ai/jobs with model_id "minimax-h3-r2v" - so you do not need a separate account or key with the model maker. You submit a job and poll it until the video is ready.

Is MiniMax H3 Reference to Video free?

No. Every render costs credits - 146 at the floor for MiniMax H3 Reference to Video. Plans bundle monthly credits.

Is MiniMax H3 Reference to Video restricted or region-locked?

You reach MiniMax H3 Reference to Video through this API with your SamAutomation key, not through the model maker's own app, so that app's sign-up and regional availability are not what gates you. The model's own content rules still apply to what you generate.

Where is the official MiniMax H3 Reference to Video site?

the model maker publishes the model itself; this page is about calling it as an API alongside every other model on one key, which is a different job from their consumer app.

Where is the MiniMax H3 Reference to Video API documentation, and is there a download?

There is nothing to download. The MiniMax H3 Reference to Video API documentation you need here is our own reference: one endpoint, one key, and the model_id above. the model maker publishes its own docs for the model, but those describe their platform, not this one.

Is MiniMax H3 Reference to Video available right now?

If it is listed on this page it is active on the platform and you can call it today. Model availability moves — makers retire versions and add tiers — so the list here is the current state rather than a promise about next quarter.

Is there a MiniMax H3 Reference to Video SDK, GitHub repo or Python example?

You do not need a vendor SDK here. MiniMax H3 Reference to Video is an HTTP call: POST /api/ai/jobs with your key and model_id "minimax-h3-r2v", then poll the job. Any language that can send JSON can drive it, and the request shape is the same for every model on this platform.

Is MiniMax H3 Reference to Video safe to use, and what happens to my input?

The practical questions are the same for every generation service: what the provider may do with what you upload, how long it is kept, and whether it can be used for training. Read that clause before you send client material through any model, ours included. the model maker publishes its own terms for the model itself.

Are the MiniMax H3 Reference to Video weights open source or on Hugging Face?

That is up to the model maker, not to us, and it differs per model and per release. If open weights matter to you, check the maker's own licence. Running it here is renting inference, not getting the weights.

Do I need the MiniMax H3 Reference to Video app to use it?

No. The consumer app and the API are separate products with separate limits. Here you call MiniMax H3 Reference to Video through this platform, so there is no app to install and no second subscription.
