Open Source H3Zero: Run MiniMax H3 in the Cloud for ~$0.23 per 10-Second Video
LegacyV1 · reddit · 2026-08-04
To solve the hardware limitations of running MiniMax H3 locally, a developer open-sourced the H3Zero project. It wraps ComfyUI with a focused browser UI, durable job queue, and HTTP API, deploying everything to the Modal cloud.
Key Features & Costs:
- Supports text-to-video, first/last frame control, and image/video/audio references.
- Generating a 10-second video (864×480) on an RTX PRO 6000 takes 3m12s, costing $0.23 in compute with $0 idle spend.
- Modal's $30/month free credit allows for roughly 130 ten-second generations.
The project is Apache-2.0 licensed and offers an unmoderated, batteries-included experience.
