01

What launch access is designed to unlock

The starter experience is for checking whether a prompt, image, frame pair or subject reference produces the intended direction before purchasing more capacity.

  • Try the mode that matches your brief
  • Start with a short focused scene
  • Review prompt and reference behavior
  • Keep successful settings for later runs

02

How far starter access stretches

Generation cost changes with model settings, duration and quality. The live generator shows the applicable amount before submission rather than promising a fixed number of clips.

  • Short drafts preserve capacity
  • Higher settings use more credits
  • Complex scenes may require more than one attempt
  • Paid plans are for ongoing volume

03

What changes when you upgrade

Paid access increases available generation capacity and production convenience. Supported tools remain tied to the selected model mode rather than an artificial feature lock.

  • More monthly generation credits
  • Higher concurrency where stated
  • Longer task and asset retention where stated
  • Commercial terms shown with the active plan

04

Stretch the first allowance

Use starter access to test one representative scene. Lock the prompt and references before moving to longer duration or higher output settings.

  • Choose the mode first
  • Use one clear action
  • Keep camera language simple
  • Change one variable when refining

Common questions

Free trial FAQ

Can I try MiniMax H3 without a payment card?

You can create an account and enter launch access without adding a card. The exact starter allowance is displayed when live generation opens.

Which generation modes are included?

The launch workflow is designed around text, image, first-and-last-frame and subject-reference modes as supported by the active API.

Does free access include unlimited video?

No. AI video has direct provider cost, so launch access uses a controlled allowance rather than an unlimited plan.

Can starter output be used commercially?

Commercial use depends on the current model, service plan and asset rights. The applicable terms are displayed before purchase and generation.

How do I get more capacity?

Choose a paid plan or credit option from the pricing page when checkout opens.
