Both models on one fixed Prompt, with the same Prompt text sent to each. Parameters differ per model where a model cannot match — see the conditions below.

Summary and how to choose

Duration: 6s; 10s at 768P for MiniMax Hailuo 2.3, versus 4–30 seconds for Seedance 2.5. Resolution: 768P or 1080P for MiniMax Hailuo 2.3, versus 480p / 720p / 1080p for Seedance 2.5.

MiniMax Hailuo 2.3

Strengths: a documented output envelope (6s; 10s at 768P · 768P or 1080P) and a checked plan, credit or no-rate path.

Trade-offs: generation modes are not confirmed, audio support is not confirmed, and pricing is not normalized to a per-second rate.

Seedance 2.5

Strengths: a documented output envelope (4–30 seconds · 480p / 720p / 1080p), official per-second cost examples, and published input/token pricing rules.

Trade-offs: generation modes are not confirmed, audio support is not confirmed, and per-second costs are official examples rather than fixed list rates.

Choose MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 when a checked plan, credit or no-rate path and its documented duration and resolution envelope matter most. Choose Seedance 2.5 when official per-second cost examples and its documented duration and resolution envelope matter most.

No overall output-quality verdict is available for this pairing yet. This summary compares confirmed documentation and pricing only; it does not infer visual quality or rank models.

Prompt 1 of 1

Durations differ. MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 is produced at 6s and Seedance 2.5 at 10s. These are recorded deviations rather than identical conditions — see the conditions under the Prompt for why.

Prompt

A single continuous shot, 16:9, no cuts. A young ceramicist sits at a wooden workbench beside a large window, shaping a wet clay bowl with both hands. Her fingers press and smooth the clay as the bowl turns; the clay visibly deforms under her touch and slips slightly between her fingers. Steam rises slowly from a stoneware mug beside the wheel. She lifts the bowl a little and turns it toward the camera. The camera performs one slow, smooth dolly-in from a medium shot to a close-up, with no other camera movement. Warm morning window light comes from camera-left, with soft shadows, shallow depth of field, and fine dust visible in the air. Photorealistic live-action footage, natural and unhurried. The wet clay reads matte and slightly glistening, the wood grain of the bench stays legible, and the glaze on the mug catches soft specular highlights. Her face, hands, clothing, and the bowl stay consistent throughout, with anatomically correct hands and fingers. Ambient studio sound only. No cuts, no camera shake, no extra people, no text, no logos, no subtitles, no watermark.

One continuous shot · 16:9 · no reference image · duration per model: MiniMax H3 and Seedance 2.5 at 10s, MiniMax Hailuo 2.3 at 6s (Hailuo 2.3 supports only 6s or 10s, and 10s would drop it to 768P), and Wan 2.2 at 5s (its reference model card documents 5-second 720P generation) · highest available resolution per model · actual parameters and any deviations recorded per result

Where to run these models

This site does not generate video and does not sell generation credits, so it has no reason to prefer either model. To run them, use the provider’s own API or app.

Frequently asked questions

Did these two models run the same Prompts?

Not yet. This pairing is a planned test: the Prompt is fixed and clips are published once both models have been run.

Can I generate these videos on this site?

No. This site does not generate video and does not sell generation credits; it compares models and links out to each provider. Running these models means using the provider's own API or app.
