MaxH3
MaxH3 is a browser-based image-to-video generator that lets you upload a still, write motion direction in plain language, and render a short clip without leaving one workspace. You pick the video model per run, so the same photo can get a 15-second synced take on MiniMax H3 or a longer pass on Wan 3.0 or Seedance 2.5.
Most photo-to-video sites lock you to one engine. MaxH3 treats the still as shared input and swaps backends (MiniMax H3, Wan 3.0, Seedance 2.5, Veo 3.1, Kling, and others) from the same screen, which is useful when you want to compare how each model reads faces, camera moves, or illustrated styles before you commit credits.
The flow targets creators who already have a reference frame and care about holding likeness, palette, and framing through the move. You can set optional start and end frames, chain in images from MaxH3's own generator, and run photoreal or illustrated sources on models that also write foley or dialogue in the same pass when you choose MiniMax H3.
Sign-up credits arrive without a card, and paid Lite, Pro, and Max plans expand the monthly grant if you outgrow the free balance.

Optional start and end frames to steer how the clip opens and closes

Shows the credit cost beside generate before you spend anything
Lets you compare multiple image-to-video backends on one upload instead of juggling separate sites.
MiniMax H3 can return picture and synced audio together, which cuts a post step for dialogue or foley-heavy clips.
Credit cost is visible before generation, and one-time packs do not expire according to the pricing FAQ.
Subscription plan credits expire at the end of each billing period.
Clip length on the default MiniMax H3 engine tops out at 15 seconds unless you switch models or edit segments.
Likeness control gets harder on crowded frames, heavy blur, or subjects clipped at the edge, per MaxH3's own guidance.
Does MaxH3 offer free credits?
Yes. MaxH3 grants sign-up credits with no card required, per the home page. You can run the image-to-video generator on that balance before subscribing to Lite, Pro, or Max for larger monthly grants.
How much does MaxH3 Lite cost?
MaxH3 Lite is $15 per month on monthly billing, or $12 per month when billed annually on the pricing page. The plan includes 400 credits per month, watermark-free downloads, and a commercial license.
Which MaxH3 models animate a still image?
MaxH3 routes the same upload through multiple image-to-video engines, including MiniMax H3, Wan 3.0, Seedance 2.5, and Veo 3.1, as listed on the image-to-video page. You switch models in the picker without re-uploading the photo.
Do MaxH3 image-to-video clips include sound?
On MiniMax H3, MaxH3 writes room tone, effects, dialogue, or score in the same pass with the picture. Wan 3.0, Seedance 2.5, and Veo 3.1 also support generated audio with an on-off switch; other models in the picker are silent.
What image files work in MaxH3?
MaxH3 accepts JPG, PNG, and WebP for image-to-video. On MiniMax H3, each side must fall between 256 and 5760 pixels with an aspect ratio between 0.4 and 2.5, as documented on the image-to-video FAQ block.
How long can a MaxH3 image-to-video clip be?
MaxH3 runs 4 to 15 seconds on MiniMax H3. For longer output, pick Wan 3.0 or Seedance 2.5, which support up to 30 seconds on the same page, or stitch multiple segments yourself.
How does MaxH3 billing handle credits?
MaxH3 charges credits per run based on model, resolution, duration, and output count, and prints the cost before you generate. Subscription credits expire at period end; one-time packs from the pricing page do not expire.
