H3 Max: Video Generation 35x Faster, Ranks #1 in Quality Benchmarks
jfischoff · x · 2026-08-28
fal launched H3 Max, a video model post-trained from the open-weights MiniMax H3 and deeply optimized for inference.
- Performance: Generates 5-second videos in under 3 seconds, 35x faster than the official MiniMax H3 endpoint and 15x faster than comparable quality models.
- Quality: Ranks #1 across overall quality, prompt adherence, and aesthetics in human preference evaluations.
- Method: The team enhanced prompt adherence and visual quality with new data while co-designing the inference stack, preserving gains despite speed optimizations and breaking the quality-latency tradeoff.
