* ABOUT HAILUO LIVE

Working with Hailuo Live

Hailuo Live is a single image-to-video model built around latency. It returns motion in near real time, which is what makes it usable inside live streams and interactive applications where a normal render queue would break the experience.

When to choose Hailuo Live

Choose Hailuo Live when the result has to appear while a user is watching. Every other video family in the catalog is a batch renderer and will feel slow in an interactive context.

* FREQUENTLY ASKED

About Hailuo Live

What does near-zero latency mean in practice?
The clip is produced fast enough to sit inside a live stream or an interactive session rather than being fetched from a job queue later.
Does it trade quality for speed?
Yes — it is optimised for responsiveness. For a finished piece, a batch model like Hailuo 2.3 Pro or H3 will look better.
What inputs does Hailuo Live take?
An image. It is an image-to-video model, so there is no text-only generation mode.
