Inspect motion continuity, character and object consistency, physics and contacts, camera behavior, temporal deformation, in-clip cuts and audio synchronization. ## What to inspect with MiniMax H3 Build a scene from separate references for appearance, movement and sound. - Text mode, one or two frames, or references. - Up to 9 images, 3 videos and 3 audio files. Video and audio each have a separate 15-second total limit; audio needs a visual reference. - The first five images are included in the base calculation; additional images increase the price. - Input video adds billable duration. Check the total, not only the resolution. ## What to inspect with HeyGen Video Creates videos with sound from a text prompt or a single source image. - Text: the result is created from a written description. - Every available setting is shown in the Studio form before launch, and the price follows them. - The result length is 5 to 15 seconds. - At most 1 photo as input. ## How to run a fair comparison - Fix the scene, the first frame (if both models accept one), the duration and the resolution. - Judge motion, not stills: faces, hands and objects should hold across the whole clip and at cuts. - If sound matters, listen to it separately: dialogue, effects and lip sync differ between models. - Price a finished clip, not a second: the per-second rate times your real duration, rounded up once. ## Sources Prices, availability and specifications come from the Mixer AI catalog. This is not an independent test: try both models on the same task before choosing. - [Prices and availability — Mixer AI catalog](https://mixerai.org/knowledge/catalog.json) ## What we compare [ MiniMax H3 Build a scene from separate references for appearance, movement and sound. ](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/video/minimax-h3/) [ HeyGen Video Creates videos with sound from a text prompt or a single source image. ](https://mixerai.org/en/knowledge/video/heygen-video/) ## FAQ Which is cheaper: MiniMax H3 or HeyGen Video?
