Open weights. Shared progress. MiniMax H3 is moving fast.
We built H3 for video generation with native stereo audio and multimodal reference control. The open-source community is making that capability faster, more accessible, and easier to build on.
Recent highlights:
• FastH3 — FastVideo, Nuva Lab and NVIDIA: 4-step distillation, now running on DGX Spark and Apple Silicon.
• Sol-H3 — NVIDIA’s SANA team: 15 seconds of 768p video + audio in 6.6 seconds on 8×B300, in the team’s warm-inference benchmark.*
• VDN — Haocheng Xi and the OpenVDN team: rethinking attention for faster H3 inference, with weights, training and inference code released.
• PDD — NVIDIA’s distillation method, brought to H3 by Alibaba PAI as 8-step Acc-LoRAs, now supported in ComfyUI.
• LightX2V — 4- and 8-step Turbo LoRAs, with workflows for text, image and reference-conditioned video + audio.
Behind every release are people training, optimizing, quantizing, testing and sharing.

Thank you for building with H3 and helping make it faster, more accessible, and more useful for the community. Powerful models go further when we build together. Keep pushing H3. Excited to see what comes next. 🚀
