📹 HeyGen launches its first video model

The model generates clips from text, animates an image, or uses another video as a reference for motion and visual style. Audio is created with the video, including speech, background sound, and effects.

It runs on MiniMax H3, with additional training by HeyGen. Clips run from 5 to 15 seconds in 480p or 768p, with aspect ratios from 21:9 to 9:16.

HeyGen’s blind comparison put the model first against 4 others, based on 4,800 votes. 768p generation costs $0.03 per second, with a 50% discount through the end of October. It is available through API, OpenRouter, Runware, and ComfyUI. The web version will come later.
